Sławek Szefs reports that Morawiecki had talks with the Lebanese president and head of government and met with workers of the Polish Center for International Aid (PCPM) and volunteers who give assistance to Syrian refugees near Beirut and in the border district of Akkar.
"The Lebanese authorities have made it clear that the direction which Poland's present government has been pursuing from the very onset, that is on-the-spot assistance, is the most effective,” Wojciech Wilk, president of PCPM, told Polish Radio.
