US EditionUkraine's Zelensky in Poland for First Meeting with Nationalist President
Zelensky and Nawrocki meet to address historical grievances and cooperation, amid Poland hosting over one million Ukrainian refugees since 2022, with tensions over EU and NATO views.
- On Friday, Volodymyr Zelensky flies to Warsaw for a first face-to-face meeting with Karol Nawrocki, aiming to establish working cooperation with the new Polish president.
- Karol Nawrocki has pressed multiple grievances against Kyiv, accusing it of not treating Poland as an equal and opposing unconditional EU and NATO accession for Ukraine.
- Amid protocol disputes, Karol Nawrocki, President of Poland, turned down at least three Kyiv government invitations, while his moves to expand powers and policy clashes with Prime Minister Donald Tusk unsettled partners.

- Analysts warn that the meeting could alter Poland's role for Kyiv as rising anti-Ukrainian sentiment and Karol Nawrocki's divergent views may weaken Poland's international influence.
