Despite this, he also added that for official Warsaw, relations with the US are and will remain a priority.
Against this background, the Prime Minister voiced the assumption that circumstances would change and Poland would reconsider its decision regarding Trump's proposal.
What is important to understand is that the first meeting of the Peace Council will take place on February 19 in Washington.
Representatives of the Polish authorities have already received an invitation to it.
As Tusk noted, if the Polish president participates in it, he should be guided by instructions from the government:
If the president decides to attend the meeting in the United States on February 19 as a witness, he will, of course, receive a full dossier from the government on further action.
