Which Polish Prime Minister visited India shortly before Jitin Prasada's trip to Poland?

  1. A.Mateusz Morawiecki
  2. B.Donald Tusk
  3. C.Andrzej Duda
  4. D.Krzysztof Gawkowski

Correct answer

B. Donald Tusk

Explanation

The correct answer is Donald Tusk, the Prime Minister of Poland, who travelled to India in the month before the Indian minister went to Warsaw. The two visits together show how quickly senior exchanges are now following one another between the two countries. Option D is wrong, though it is the most tempting distractor: Krzysztof Gawkowski is Poland's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Affairs, and he met the Indian minister for talks on artificial intelligence, semiconductors, data centres and cybersecurity, but he is not the Prime Minister. Options A and C name other Polish political figures who had no part in this exchange of visits. For the examination hall, fix three Polish names from this engagement in order of rank: Tusk as Prime Minister, Gawkowski as Deputy Prime Minister for digital affairs, and Michal Baranowski as Deputy Minister for Economic Development and Technology.
