The Polish Olympic Committee expressed its support for Andrzej Duda's candidacy for a position on the International Olympic Committee. This was reported by Polsat.

According to information from 29 members of the Board of the Polish National Olympic Committee, 4 were against this idea and 6 abstained. The head of the organization, Radoslaw Piesiewicz, noted that Duda, as a person interested in Olympism, will help Poland on the international sports arena.

Election of the new president of the International Olympic Committee

Duda's term ends in 2025, and the 2025 International Olympic Committee congress is scheduled earlier - in March. One of the main issues at this congress will be the election of a new president to replace Thomas Bach from Germany.

The President of Poland, Andrzej Duda, stated that the newly elected President of the USA, Donald Trump, will not allow the destruction of Ukraine by the Russian Federation, as he, Trump, will be responsible for American taxpayers' money intended to help Ukraine. He said this at a press conference with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

He also added that he cannot say exactly what policy Trump will adopt towards Ukraine, as he has not revealed his official plans yet. According to him, there are only 'rumors in the media' at the moment.

The Polish president noted that he knows Trump well, who, in his opinion, is a 'born fighter' and 'does not like to lose'. Moreover, Trump, according to Duda, respects American taxpayers who fill the country's budget.
