Poland’s National Day

On behalf of the United States of America, I extend our best wishes to the people of Poland as you honor the adoption of your first constitution 232 years ago today.

As President Biden said during his visit to Warsaw earlier this year, in moments of great upheaval and uncertainty, knowing what you stand for and knowing who you stand with makes all the difference. The people of Poland know that better than most – it is the true meaning of solidarity. The United States is proud to stand with Poland as friends, partners, and Allies, working side-by-side to defend freedom from tyranny and aggression, support Ukraine, impose consequences on Russia, and strengthen our collective security on NATO’s Eastern Flank.

Building on our shared values, we grow stronger and more successful because of our cooperation on important issues like clean and reliable energy security and expanded economic ties. I look forward to continuing to grow our partnership and our friendship in the year ahead.
