“The Polish economy is doing quite well,” said European Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis during a recent visit to Warsaw to meet with deputy Prime Minister Paweł Szałamacha, central banker Marek Belka and other financial authorities in Poland.

“It has weathered the financial and economic situation quite well and also now we expect a 3.5 percent growth for Poland both this year and next, which is substantially above EU average.

“Unemployment is at historically low levels and is projected to continue to decrease, so we think it's important to follow up on those positive developments.”

The rate of joblessness in Poland currently stands at 9.6 percent according to Poland's Central Statistical Office (GUS) and 7.0 percent according to the EU statistics office, Eurostat. (rg/rk)
