Polish, US presidents to meet in Washington on Saturday
Poland's President Andrzej Duda will meet with his American counterpart Donald Trump in Washington on Saturday, PAP has been told by an anonymous diplomatic source.
Duda and Trump will meet either at the White House or on the sidelines of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), near Washington.
According to PAP, the meeting is planned to take place at 1:30pm (local time) (7:30pm in Poland) on Saturday. Its details are still being agreed upon, PAP added quoting its source.
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski is also in Washington where he is expected to meet with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio later on Friday.
Earlier on Friday, President Duda held a telephone conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky. Duda said he had told Zelensky that "we consistently believe there is no other way to stop the bloodshed and achieve lasting peace in Ukraine except with the support of the United States."
Duda suggested for Zelensky "to remain committed to the course of calm and constructive cooperation with US President Donald Trump," and added that he had no doubt "that President Trump is guided by a deep sense of responsibility for global stability and peace." (PAP)
