The Diplomat
The new Ambassador of Poland to Spain, Anna Sroka, presented last Thursday at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs her Copies of Letters of Credence, which allows her to hold the post until the presentation of Letters of Credence to His Majesty the King.
Anna Sroka presented the Copies of Letters of Credence to the Ambassadors’ Introducer and Director General of Protocol, María Sebastián de Erice.
The Polish ambassador is well acquainted with Spain, as between 2006 and 2008 she was a researcher at the Universidad Antonio de Nebrija and the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED), and is also the author of a doctoral thesis entitled “The Spanish State of the autonomous regions in the process of change of its territorial structures”.
Sroka holds a PhD in Political Science and until her appointment was a lecturer at the University of Warsaw.
In an interview with the newspaper El Debate, she expressed her wish that Spaniards could perceive Poland as a culturally close country and “as a modern country, but faithful to its traditions, which come mainly from Catholicism and love of freedom”.
