Poland in US

We invite you to watch the Polish Defense Attaché's special video tribute to Polish Armed Forces Day.

During the war with Bolshevik Russia, the United States provided Poland with military and humanitarian aid. At the request of President Thomas Woodrow Wilson, the United States granted Poland a war loan of 176 million dollars. This enabled the purchase of, among others, approximately 200 tanks, 300 planes, war materials and food for the Polish Army.

The call for proposals in the "Polish Returns 2020. COVID-19 Edition" program is addressed to institutions planning to employ scientists whose research may be relevant for broadening knowledge and solving significant problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences, in particular representatives of broadly understood health and biomedical sciences.

In observance of the Feast of Corpus Christi, all Polish diplomatic missions in the U.S. will be closed tomorrow, June 11th.
