“Unstable Europe, disturbed transatlantic relations, emotional roller coaster and frustration in the East, as well as Russia’s aggressive policy shape the environment in which we pursue our eastern policy. The main objective of Poland’s foreign policy is therefore national security, regional cooperation, including collaboration within the Eastern Partnership, as well as bilateral relations with Eastern European countries,” Undersecretary of State at the Polish MFA Marcin Przydacz said while launching Polish Eastern Policy 2019 conference.

Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki presented new deputy foreign ministers with their nominations.
