Unexplained incident reported at Polish embassy in Slovenia, officials await comment

An undisclosed event occurred at Poland's embassy in Slovenia; inquiries were sent to the Foreign Ministry and a spokesperson's statement is pending, while the embassy chief was reportedly on vacation.

An unidentified incident took place at the Polish embassy in Slovenia, though details remain scarce. Reporters seeking clarification were referred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where an unofficial source acknowledged the event and indicated that a statement from spokesperson Maciej Wewiór is forthcoming. One outlet suggests that the embassy's head, Leszek Soczewica, who became chargé d’affaires in February 2026, was likely on vacation during the occurrence.

Soczewica is a longtime colleague of Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski, having previously led the Diplomatic Security Office, served as head of the Polish Armed Forces General Staff, acted as undersecretary of state in the ministry, and served as ambassador to Slovakia. The Diplomatic Security Office is tasked with ensuring the security of Polish diplomatic facilities abroad. No further specifics about the incident have been released.
