‘I would like to thank
you for the work for the Polish regions in the European Union and for your
active involvement not only on the EU forum, but also within the scope of
Polish-Belgian relations. There are many positive examples of common activities
in our bilateral cooperation. However, there is still much to be done’ – said President Bronisław
Komorowski during the meeting with the representatives of Polish regions in
Brussels on 13th November 2012. The meeting was a part of a two-day visit of
our head of state in the Kingdom of Belgium. The visit consisted, among others, of a meeting with
the Belgian Royal Couple, talks with the President of the European Council and Belgian
