Speaking at an event on Saturday, Sikorski said Poland would welcome a request from Ukraine to establish a consulate at the location.

“Today’s network of Ukrainian consulates, given the unprecedented increase in the number of Ukrainian citizens in Poland, does not reflect consular needs,” Sikorski said, referencing services like issuing legal documents, registering births, and handling deaths.

In October, Sikorski cited Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine and hybrid warfare against the West as reasons for withdrawing approval for the consulate’s operations. He reminded intelligence reports linking Russia to sabotage attempts in Poland and allied countries.

The Russian consulate in Poznań, originally established in 1946 under an agreement with the Soviet Union, was closed in 1948 before reopening in 1960 and becoming a general consulate in 1971. Its closure marks another diplomatic shift in response to Russia’s aggression in Ukraine.
