Radosław Sikorski praised the candidacy of Bogdan Klich for the post of head of the Polish mission in Washington. “In the meantime, he is a former defense minister with contacts in Washington during the war,” he said on the Polish Radio program 1. The head of the Foreign Ministry also commented on the dismissal of Marek Magierowski as ambassador to the US and the candidate for the new ambassador to Israel.
Bogdan Klich becomes the head of the Polish mission in Washington. Law and Justice politicians do not hide their indignation about this decision and accuse the former head of the Ministry of National Defense of, among other things, connections with the Smolensk disaster.

Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski spoke on this issue.
PiS absurdly accuses him of any connection to the Smolensk disaster. Antoni Macierewicz said in recent days that he had no doubt that an attack took place there. If PiS proves Bogdan Klich’s connection to the disaster, he will not go to the facility
– he said on the Polish radio program 1.
According to him, Bogdan Klich is the best possible candidate for this position.
Bogdan Klich is meanwhile a former Minister of Defense with extensive contacts in Washington during the war, so I think he is the right person for this position. I find no serious arguments against his candidacy
– added.
Vacancy in Israel
The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also referred to the vacancy for the position of ambassador to Israel.
Maciej Hunia is the former head of the foreign intelligence service. He has the permission of Israel, which was given very quickly as a sign of kindness. It also has a positive recommendation of the Sejm Committee on Foreign Affairs and was approved at the convention. I see no reason to delay the signing of his appointment
– he said.
Lowering the rank of diplomatic missions
Radosław Sikorski added that there are currently about twenty vacancies in various positions at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and that is why “he is forced to reduce the ranks of individual institutions”
President Andrzej Duda is responsible for this state of affairs
– he said.
Sikorski also commented on the resignation of US Ambassador to the United States Marek Magierowski.
He has resigned, but he is still on leave and three months’ notice. I appreciate the ambassador’s performance. He made a mistake recently. He also did not fully accept the results of the October elections. However, he has returned from the institution and there is no need to discuss this further
– he emphasized.
