    The press conference of the Presidents will be followed by an official breakfast given by the President of Poland in honour of the President of the Federal Republic of Germany. In the afternoon, the two leaders will meet at the Royal Castle with young people from the Polish-German Youth Cooperation to mark the 30thanniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Good Neighbourhood and Friendly Cooperation between Poland and Germany. Speeches by the presidents of Poland and Germany are scheduled.

     

    The Chief of the International Policy Office, Krzysztof Szczerski, noted that the issue of the treaty’s implementation will be one of the topics of the conversation between presidents Duda and Steinmeier. As he indicated, the presidents’ conversation will also cover current issues, including events in Belarus and Ukraine, the future of the European Union and “new transatlantic relations that are emerging from recent decisions and moves on the American and German sides”.
