German-Polish Friendship Group

The Bundesrat and the Polish Senate established both a Friendship Group with the aim of deepening German-Polish relations and strengthening cooperation between the two chambers.

Foundation

In October 2020, the then President of the Bundesrat and Minister-President of Brandenburg, Dr Dietmar Woidke, suggested stepping up mutual cooperation to the Polish Senate by establishing a Friendship Group on both sides.

The cooperation between the Bundesrat and the Polish Senate has a long tradition. In particular, it encompasses regular exchanges on political issues both between the presidents of the two chambers and between members/senators.

Working method

As a general rule, the Friendship Groups come together once a year for a meeting that spans several days. These meetings are held alternately in Germany and Poland.
