Pakistan having ideal, close, cordial, historical relations with Poland is seeking fostering cooperation in new avenues including defence, Information technology, education, agriculture, food processing, medicine and engineering research, workforce export and people to people contacts.<\/p>\n

This was stated by Additional Secretary (Europe) Ms Ayesha Ali, in her keynote address as chief guest at the celebration event of Polish National Day which commemorates the Third May Constitution of 1791. Federal Minister Climate Change Musaddiq Malik and Minister for Water Resources Muhammad Mueen Wattoo were also present at the occasion.<\/p>\n

H.E Maciej Pisarski, Ambassador of Poland, spouse Ms Justyna Pisarski and Defence Attache Capt N Sebastian Bebal jointly hosted the grand reception at the residence in diplomatic enclave on 05 May 2026 that was attended by a large number of Members of the Parliament, Federal Ministers, Fellow Ambassadors and Diplomats from European Union and other countries. The event started with national anthems of both countries and the European Union.<\/p>\n

The chief guest extended hearty felicitations on the auspicious day to the government and people of Poland. She said, both nations enjoy common history and good relations. She pointed major sectors that have great potential to increase bilateral cooperation.<\/p>\n

” Bilateral cooperation has been remarkable in defense as the Polish pilots helped Pakistan in raising the air force and provided technical assistance. Both countries are working together on capacity building of the security forces that is very important for Pakistan, Ayesha Ali noted in her address.\"\"<\/p>\n

As the Ambassador shared that he has completed his tenure in Islamabad, Ms Ayesha appreciated his efforts in building bridges and enhancing cooperation between two countries. She said, ” Islamabad will miss you and we look forward to seeing you in your new assignment where you will keep Pakistan in your thoughts.”<\/p>\n

Ambassador, in his welcome address shed light on the history of the day. He said, ” Among many important historical dates in Poland\u2019s history this one is a very special one. It precedes our current bout of independence. It has been cherished by the generations of Poles for more than 200 years, always filling them with hope and pride of belonging to a political community dedicated to freedom, self-determination and civic empowerment.”<\/p>\n

On his stay in Pakistan, the Ambassador shared , It\u2019s already been four and half year in Pakistan for me and my wife. There have always been unique moments, exceptional encounters and unforeseen experiences in Pakistan. They have transformed our life on a personal and professional level.<\/p>\n

H.E said , we live in dramatic times in a rapidly changing international environment is an obvious understatement. Regrettably, many of these changes have filled us with concern and distress.<\/p>\n

On Ukraine<\/strong>, the Ambassador noted, “For more than four years now, we have come together at this Embassy \u2013 together with our Ukrainian friends, Team Europe, friends from like-minded countries and Pakistan – to commemorate each passing anniversary of the unprovoked and illegal Russian invasion against Ukraine, which destroyed the life of hundreds of thousands of people as well as peace in Europe and beyond.”<\/p>\n

\"\"Mr. Pisarski said, ” We have also watched in horror the humanitarian catastrophe of the Gaza population. We have mourned the innocent victims of terrorism in Pakistan and throughout the region. And, we have kept reminding ourselves:<\/p>\n

that the human sufferings, especially the civil population, in one place should not, could not, make us numb to the sufferings of others; that the landgrab – either through a state action or by illegal settlements are just two incarnations of theft, which is obviously a crime; that there cannot be peace without justice; without self-determination and freedom to choose one\u2019s future in a sovereign homeland; that no ideology should be allowed to hijack any cause, especially the noble ones, to sow terror, death or fear.<\/p>\n

On the Middle East<\/strong> , the Ambassador said, “Over the last months, we have witnessed yet another conflict reverberating through the Middle East with global consequences. In this case, Pakistan has stepped in as a mediator, working with the concerned parties to find a solution to the conflict through diplomacy and dialog. \u201cThe Islamabad Process\u201d has already contributed to the de-escalation. We sincerely \u201ckeep our fingers crossed\u201d for the success of the mediation effort led by Pakistan.<\/p>\n

Poland Pakistan Cooperation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ambassador detailed bilateral cooperation and shared the engagements in this regard during the last few months. He said, in the midst of this global turmoil however, the bilateral relations between Poland and Pakistan have reached a higher level.<\/p>\n

It culminated with a very successful visit of Poland\u2019s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Rados\u0142aw Sikorski in Islamabad in October 2025. Engaging and open conversations with Pakistan\u2019s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Senator Ishaq Dar as well as President Asif Zardari and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif opened a new chapter in the already friendly bilateral cooperation.<\/p>\n

This has been followed up by the recent phone call between both Deputy Prime Ministers and Foreign Ministers. Our political agenda focuses on upholding the principles of international law, including the UN Charter, as a framework for global peace and stability.<\/p>\n

Ambassador said, with the visit of Pakistan\u2019s Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi to Poland this past February, our countries have strengthened the cooperation in combating transborder and transnational threats to our internal security. We look forward to continuing this dialog in the months to come.<\/p>\n
