Poland delivers new Ukrainian ambassador nomination

The Polish government handed out the nomination for the new ambassador to Ukraine, 67-year-old politician and businessman Jarosław Guzy, Poland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Twitter on Oct. 24.

Ambassador Guzy will replace the current Polish Ambassador to Ukraine, . Ambassador Cichocki was the only ambassador who remained in Kyiv during the Russian invasion.
