MFA statement on launch of procedure to recall ambassadors
13.03.2024
On 13 March, Minister of Foreign Affairs Radosław Sikorski decided to terminate the mission of more than 50 ambassadors and to withdraw a dozen or so candidates who had been entered for approval by the Ministry’s former senior officials.
The proposed reshuffle was put forward at the Foreign Service Council and, following its approval by the Prime Minister, recall procedures have been launched.
The government, which, under the Constitution, is responsible for foreign policy, believes that the necessary change of Polish ambassadors will help to address the difficult challenges facing Poland’s foreign policy today in a better, more professional manner.
The MFA hopes that the key authorities in the country will work together on this issue.
