Karol Nawrocki, president of the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN) and PiS presidential candidate, met with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House during his visit to the United States, which will include celebrating Poland’s Constitution Day on May 3 with the Polish community in Chicago.
Aside from his talk with Trump, Do Rzeczy reports Nawrocki, an independent who scored support from the conservative Law and Justice party (PiS), exchanged words with various officials in the Rose Garden during the National Day of Prayer ceremony. He was seen speaking with Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson, WH Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and Secretary of Health Robert Kennedy.
The PiS candidate is also expected to discuss defense, energy contracts, and the stationing of American troops in Poland with members of Congress.
Nawrocki’s sit-down with Trump in the Oval Office is said to have been a surprise.
“President Donald J. Trump welcomes Polish presidential candidate Karol Nawrocki to the Oval Office,” the official White House account posted on X.
“Great meeting with POTUS. It was an honour to discuss the bright future of Poland-U.S. relations,” Nawrocki posted on his own account.
Chicago’s May 3rd Day Parade, first started in 1892, celebrates the ratification of the Polish Constitution of May 3, 1791. This year’s slogan will be “1000th Anniversary of the Kingdom of Poland.” The largest Polish parade outside of Poland being in Chicago makes sense, as the city is home to the largest Polish population in a metropolitan region in the U.S. With more than 720,000 residents claiming Polish heritage, it is purportedly the most Polish city in the world outside of Poland.
