Preparations for the 2016 WYD in Krakow were the focus of a meeting between Foreign Minister Grzegorz Schetyna and Stanisław Cardinal Dziwisz at the MFA.
It was yet another in a series of meetings between the 2016 WYD Organising Committee and the MFA.
The interlocutors discussed the MFA’s possible engagement in the initiative, including the promotion of the 2016 WYD in Krakow through Polish diplomatic missions abroad. Minister Grzegorz Schetyna said that the MFA wishes to help facilitate visa procedures for those who want to participate in the event.
