Security, energy policy and international relations formed the core topics of a detailed exchange between Poland’s President of the Sejm, Szymon Hołownia, and the U.S. Ambassador to Poland, Marek Brzeziński. Michał Kobosko, a member of the Poland 2050 movement who attended the meeting, described the discussion afterward to the press. The atmosphere, he noted, was clearly friendly, underscoring the enduring partnership between Poland and the United States, a bond that remains stable under the leadership of the new parliamentary coalition.
In what was framed as a candid conversation among friends, the participants talked through several facets of the bilateral relationship. The Polish side expressed particular interest in how the new coalition would position Poland within the European Union as well as in relation to neighboring states like Germany and Ukraine. Given the strong American security presence in the region, the discussion also touched on regional stability and defense cooperation. Kobosko emphasized that the U.S. views cooperation with Poland as multi-sectoral and essential for the overall security architecture of Central Europe [PAP].
The ambassador signaled that Washington favors cohesive, harmonious collaboration within the EU, highlighting the importance of a united European stance and a constructive Polish role in intra-EU affairs. This overarching goal, as described by Kobosko, aligns with the expectations of both Hołownia and the broader Poland 2050 platform [PAP].
Energy policy was another major pillar of the talks. Poland faces pivotal decisions on nuclear energy development and the path toward its first American investment, anticipated to begin soon. The discussions acknowledged the importance of diversifying the national energy mix toward renewable sources, a direction supported by the Polish leadership, including Mr. Hołownia, as part of long-term energy security for the country in 2050. Kobosko underscored the government’s commitment to steering Poland toward a balanced energy mix that respects both reliability and future resilience. He also noted that nuclear energy will remain a significant component, with both large reactors and smaller modular reactors considered as options to strengthen Poland’s power system. At the same time, he admitted that Poland currently lags behind in this sector and that a responsible, timely expansion is necessary to address electricity shortages and heating needs. Moving forward, this sector will be treated as a government priority [PAP].
On parliamentary collaboration, the Polish 2050 MP highlighted the importance of ongoing engagement between the Sejm and the U.S. Congress. The ambassador mentioned interest from several members of Congress to meet Hołownia and to visit Poland, while Hołownia affirmed a warm welcome for such visits. The reach of parliamentary cooperation was described as a dynamic and growing component of the bilateral relationship, with potential to deepen exchanges and legislative teamwork in both countries [PAP].
The conversation, Kobosko remarked, was wide-ranging yet very cordial in tone. The shared sentiment was clear: Poland and the United States are steadfast partners, and that partnership is not up for negotiation or dilution by any political changes in Poland. This assurance, he suggested, should be read as a signal of continuity and stability across the political spectrum in Poland as it relates to U.S. relations and security commitments. The takeaway, as stated by Kobosko, is one of steady cooperation and mutual respect that transcends electoral cycles [PAP].
Given the broader strategic context, observers in North America may view the Polish-American alliance as a key backbone of regional security, economic collaboration, and energy diversification in Central Europe. For Canadian and American audiences, the dialogue reflects how partner nations navigate evolving political landscapes while maintaining a consistent stance on security guarantees, EU integration, and the pursuit of resilient energy solutions. The record of these discussions underscores a practical commitment to a multi-faceted partnership that seeks stability, growth, and shared prosperity across borders [PAP].
