Three years ago, I had the privilege of watching Iga Świątek during her 2022 appearance at Wimbledon, where she began with brilliance and a record-breaking streak. Today, she is the Wimbledon champion.

Today we honour the memory of Jan Karski (Kozielewski), who died on 13 July 2000 — lawyer, diplomat, historian, and legendary courier of the Polish Underground State. He brought to the West one of the first eyewitness reports on the Holocaust. Righteous Among the Nations.

On this day in 1410, the Battle of Grunwald marked one of medieval Europe’s largest clashes — a turning point in the struggle against the Teutonic Order. 615 years later, it remains a proud symbol of Polish-Lithuanian unity and defiance. 👇The Battle of Grunwald by Jan Matejko

Reuters reports: the EU–US trade deal offers stability, but not celebration. A flat 15% US tariff on EU goods is better than 30%—but still a climbdown from Europe’s ambition of free trade. Steel and aluminium remain at 50%. reuters.com/business/us-eu…

Early this morning, 🇵🇱 scrambled jets as 🇷🇺 launched a massive air assault on 🇺🇦. No violations of Polish airspace, but the threat is real and persistent. Day 1,251 of the war. Europe must stay vigilant, united, and resolute. 🇬🇧🇵🇱🇺🇦 polskieradio.pl/395/9766/artyk…

Did you know Bonnie Prince Charlie was half-Polish? His mother, Clementina Sobieska, was the granddaughter of King Jan III Sobieski. A proud reminder of the deep historic ties between Poland and Scotland. Well done PLinEdinburgh LordProvostEdinburgh!

The detentions in Poland connected to Russian-perpetrated sabotage are a stark warning. Hybrid threats are growing rapidly. Europe’s response must be marked by unity, vigilance, and closer cooperation. share.google/IsaKanT8aSNU0B…

1 August is a day to remember the people of Warsaw who rose in 1944 — knowing the odds, yet choosing to resist tyranny. Thousands paid with their lives. We also honour the RAF crews who flew through fire to help. Many didn’t return. We haven’t forgotten.

Germany’s Luftwaffe is deploying 5 Eurofighter jets to Poland 🇵🇱 in support of Polish air defence. The jets will be stationed at the airbase in Mińsk Mazowiecki. The deployment is a show of NATO solidarity, a credible deterrent & protection of #NATO airspace. #WeInvestInFreedom
