Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski starts a 10-day trip to the United States on Thursday, during which he will attend the UN General Assembly meeting and hold a number of bilateral talks.

Sikorski is scheduled to meet with Philip Gordon, national security advisor to US Vice-President Kamala Harris, and Roger Carstens, US special envoy for hostage affairs. He may also meet with Jake Sullivan, the US national security advisor.

On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly meeting in New Yok, the Polish foreign minister will hold talks with his Chinese, Iranian, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Egyptian and Emirati counterparts.

Most of his meetings will focus on security issues, which was also the leading subject of his foreign visits earlier this month, including to Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, Ukraine and Moldova.

Sikorski will also travel to Detroit to visit a military plant producing the Abrams tanks that Poland has ordered from the US. (PAP)
