Poland is to open a 24-hour consular call centre in Warsaw to help service Poles living in the United Kingdom, Poland’s Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski said on Tuesday.

“Over a million Poles who live in the UK often complain that Polish embassies and consulates are not capable of serving such a large number of people”, Waszczykowski said.

The exact date of launching the centre remains unknown, the minister said it will happen in “a few days”.
