New Polish Foreign Minister Seeks Stronger Ties With India

The conference was organised jointly by the Committee of Foreign Relations of the Polish parliament and the Association of Polish-Asia Relations. Incidentally, Schetyna was head of this committee till recently.

From the Indian side, the Indo-Polish Chamber of Commerce and Industry (IPCCI), headed by its president J.J. Singh, emphasised on the need for liberalisation of Polish visas for Indian businessmen and tourists.

"Time has come that we should start a direct flight from Delhi to Warsaw," observed Singh.

"IPCCI has become an important reference mark for Indian and Polish businessmen. This body is very sound in promoting business between the two countries. We will send a big delegation for the 7th Vibrant Gujarat Economic Forum in coming January," said Katarzyna Kasperczyk, the under secretary of state in the Polish foreign ministry during the deliberations.

Krzystof Solek, president of Film Polska, who recently collaborated with the filming of the climax scenes of Salman Khan-starrer "Kick", said: "The mega success of 'Kick' in India and abroad has given Poland a new profile. Now, other producers are also coming to shoot in Poland. We have the beautiful locales and well-trained technicians. A Polish cinematographer, Artur Zurawski, has worked for 'Mardani', produced by Yashraj Films. His work has been appreciated and he is getting new offers to work in Bollywood films."
