Jaishankar arrived in Poland on Wednesday for an official visit aimed at deepening bilateral relations. At Warsaw Chopin Airport, he was received by India's Ambassador to Poland, Neeta Bhushan.

India and Poland maintain a longstanding, friendly relationship marked by high-level political exchanges and a dynamic economic partnership. Official diplomatic relations between India and Poland were formally established in 1954. According to statements from the Indian Embassy in Poland, the two countries share traditional ideological perspectives rooted in mutual opposition to colonialism, imperialism and racism.
Jaishankar's Warsaw engagements centre on advancing the India-Poland Joint Action Plan 2024–28 while addressing wider global challenges involving supply chains and food, fuel and fertiliser security.
