Russian, Polish FMs Meet for Boosting Bilateral Ties

Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov and his Polish counterpart Wladyslaw Bartoszewski held talks here Tuesday over improving bilateral relations, giving a new push to the normalization of their long-frozen ties.

Moscow highly values the positive dynamics of its relations with Warsaw, Ivanov told Bartoszewski at the meeting.

Bartoszewski will meet Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyanov in the near future to discuss Russian-Polish trade and economic relations as well as pressing international problems, Ivanov told a joint news conference after the meeting.

Bartoszewski, who arrived here Monday for a two-day working visit, also expressed satisfaction with the positive trends in recovery and development of bilateral relations.

Warsaw has noticed Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent remarks about the good prospects of developing Russian-Polish relations "with great attention," he said.

Ivanov said the two sides have agreed on Putin, Kasyanov and Russian State Duma Speaker Gennady Seleznyov's visits to Poland this year.

He said Putin had accepted the invitation from Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski for a trip to Warsaw. The concrete date of the visit is being discussed through diplomatic channels.

The Polish minister stressed that all social circles in Poland share the political will to develop constructive, good-neighborly relations with Russia.

Russia is ready to hold consultations with neighbors of its Kaliningrad region, an enclave surrounded by Poland and Lithuania, in order to avoid problems in the planned enlargement of the European Union, Ivanov said.

Bartoszewski said Poland is ready to cooperate with Russia in solving environmental and transport problems in the Kaliningrad region, which meets the two sides' common interests
