President welcomes "Prime Minister Tusk"

After the meeting, Tusk claimed that he did not hear any factual arguments against the candidacy of Radek Sikorski as Foreign Minister apart from "subjective assessment of qualifications". However, Michał Kamiński a member of the President's chancellery, denied this information and claims that the PM designate needs to leant more facts about Sikorski. In terms of foreign policy Tusk said, "The policy of the President were presented by outgoing PM Jarosław Kaczyński in the Sejm on Monday. We shall consult on this matter. I intend to ensure cooperation between us instead of prestigious disputes and conflicts." As previously suggested the President will swear in Donald Tusk as PM later this week.
