Karol Nawrocki hosted Gitanas Nauseda, Edgars Rinkevics, Alar Karis, and Nicusor Dan at the Hel Peninsula presidential residence to coordinate regional security strategies and discuss the upcoming NATO summit in Ankara. <\/p>\n
The President’s Office confirmed that a primary focus of the informal summit was coordinating shared positions ahead of the upcoming NATO summit in Ankara. The leaders established priorities for regional cooperation, security for the Baltic and Black Sea regions, and key transatlantic issues.<\/p>\n
Discussions also covered strengthening the Alliance\u2019s eastern flank, enhancing European defense capabilities, and cooperation within the Bucharest Nine and the Three Seas Initiative.<\/p>\n
Beyond defense, the leaders addressed the development of regional energy and transport infrastructure. They also examined the future of the European Union and the major challenges facing the community. Before the talks commenced, the participants visited the Port of Gdynia.<\/p>\n
Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda used the meeting to address deteriorating relations between Poland and Ukraine. Nauseda stated his willingness to mediate between the two nations, emphasizing that while history is important, the current reality of Russia\u2019s war against Ukraine requires urgent attention.<\/p>\n
The conflict escalated following Volodymyr Zelenskyy\u2019s decision to name a Ukrainian military unit after UPA heroes. Polish officials, including Prime Minister Donald Tusk, criticized the move, and Karol Nawrocki subsequently revoked Zelenskyy\u2019s Order of the White Eagle, which was later returned via courier.<\/p>\n
The dispute centers on the historical memory of the OUN and UPA, responsible for genocidal ethnic cleansing of Polish populations in Volhynia and Eastern Lesser Poland between 1943 and 1945.<\/p>\n
The informal summit took place at the presidential residence in Jurata, situated on the Hel Peninsula by the Bay of Puck. The complex, which took its current form between 1996 and 2003, serves as a venue for official state business and diplomatic meetings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
