Source: Polish president skipping Jerusalem event not connected to Israel-Poland ties

An unnamed diplomatic source is quoted by Hebrew-language media as saying the decision by Polish President Andrzej Duda to skip a major Holocaust memorial event on January 23 “has no connection with the relations between Poland and Israel.”

“The President of Poland was invited to take part in the events in Jerusalem marking 75 years since the liberation of Auschwitz, and the invitation still stands,” the source says.
