Poland’s president, Andrzej Duda, will not attend the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk this week, as his chief of staff, Karol Nawrocki, did not receive an invitation. Marcin Przydacz, a senior aide to the Polish president, confirmed the omission. The conference aims to discuss international aid and reconstruction efforts for Ukraine. The reason for the lack of invitation remains unclear, prompting speculation about potential diplomatic tensions between Kyiv and Warsaw. This exclusion marks a notable shift, given Poland’s significant role in supporting Ukraine following the Russian invasion. The conference is expected to draw numerous international leaders and representatives focused on Ukraine’s long-term recovery.
