Poland and India Strengthen Ties During First Visit by Indian Prime Minister in 45 Years

Poland and India have upgraded their diplomatic relationship to a strategic partnership, as announced by Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Warsaw. This visit marks the first time in 45 years an Indian prime minister has traveled to Poland. Celebrating 70 years of diplomatic ties, both leaders discussed expanding cooperation in defense, agriculture, and trade, and reaffirmed their commitment to peace in Ukraine.

Tusk highlighted the improved relations between Poland and India, emphasizing their shared respect for international rules, borders, sovereignty, and the rule of law. Modi's visit to Poland included meetings with the Indian diaspora and tributes at various monuments honoring Polish-Indian history. Following his time in Poland, Modi is scheduled to visit Ukraine for talks with President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The discussions between Tusk and Modi focused on enhancing collaboration in various sectors, including defense, energy, agriculture, and urban development. Poland, known for its expertise in food processing and defense, seeks to strengthen ties with India in these areas. Modi also emphasized India's interest in including Polish companies in the country's new food banks and highlighted opportunities for cooperation in sectors such as wastewater management and renewable energy.

The two leaders addressed Poland’s visa policy, following a recent scandal regarding visa issuance. Tusk assured that Indian visitors would always be welcome in Poland, clarifying the new policy aims to restore order and is not targeted at India. 

In his remarks, Modi expressed gratitude for Poland's support during the Ukraine conflict, particularly its assistance to Indian students. He also announced a new youth exchange program to commemorate shared historical ties, reflecting the deepening bond between the two nations.

The number of Indians working in Poland has significantly increased, making them the fourth largest group of foreign workers registered in Poland's social security system. This growing presence underscores the strengthening economic and cultural ties between Poland and India.
