Sikorski to arrive in Prague day before other V4 foreign ministers

Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski is due to come to Czechia next Wednesday, a day before a meeting of the foreign ministers of the Visegrad Four states. Mr. Sikorski will hold bilateral talks with his counterpart, Jan Lipavský, on March 20.

There are disagreements between the V4 countries on some foreign policy issues, with Poland and Czechia at present being more clearly pro-Western than Slovakia and Hungary, and a bilateral meeting between the Czech and Polish prime ministers was also held before a summit in February.
