Polish President Karol Nawrocki took part in a teleconference on Ukraine with U.S. President Donald Trump and European leaders on Wednesday, his office announced, replacing Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who had initially been expected to attend.
Nawrocki, a conservative nationalist and eurosceptic aligned with Trump’s MAGA movement, visited the White House earlier this year during Poland’s presidential election campaign. He later defeated Tusk’s party’s candidate in a run-off vote.
Government spokespersons clarified that while Tusk did not join the call with Trump, he represented Poland in two other meetings with European leaders on the same day that did not include the U.S. president.
The talks came ahead of Trump’s upcoming summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska, with European leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasizing the need to safeguard Kyiv’s interests.
Analysts warn that having both the president and prime minister represent Poland separately risks sending conflicting signals abroad. Krzysztof Izdebski of the Batory Foundation said such political rivalry undermines Poland’s image as a cohesive and influential player on the international stage.
Both Nawrocki and Tusk remain strong supporters of Ukraine in its war against Russia, despite their deep domestic political differences.
