The timing of the visit of newly elected Polish President Karol Nawrocki to Ukraine remains open, with Kyiv not tying the invitation to any symbolic dates.
This was stated by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha in an interview with Ukrinform, in response to a question about whether Nawrocki’s visit to Kyiv could coincide with Ukraine’s Independence Day celebrations.
“As for the terms of the visit of the newly elected President Karol Nawrocki, our invitation remains open. We are very interested in establishing dialog between the leaders of our countries as soon as possible. We are open to discussing substantive issues on our shared agenda. That’s why we are waiting for the president of friendly Poland to visit friendly Ukraine — and there’s no need to wait for any symbolic dates,” said Sybiha.
Regarding Ukraine’s participation in Nawrocki’s inauguration on August 6, Sybiha noted that the ceremony will be held without foreign guests and will take place at the level of the diplomatic corps.
“Based on the invitations received, Ukraine will be represented accordingly. It is customary for such events to include the diplomatic corps,” Sybiha added.
As Ukrinform previously reported, Nawrocki will take the oath of office as President of Poland on August 6 before the National Assembly — a joint session of the Sejm and Senate.
