Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced on Tuesday that she will head Kyiv’s delegation at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk this week, as President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plans to miss the event due to a diplomatic dispute with Polish President Karol Nawrocki.

“I am leading Ukraine’s delegation and our overall work at the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2026 in Gdańsk,” Svyrydenko posted on X. The delegation will include business leaders, officials, lawmakers, and local community representatives, aiming to secure “concrete agreements” on Ukraine’s defense capabilities, resilience, and energy sector, she added.

The conference, co-hosted by Poland and Ukraine and scheduled for June 25 to 26, seeks to rally international support for Ukraine’s reconstruction and attract investment for its war-damaged businesses.

    Oh, brilliant! Nothing screams “recovery” like sending the PM while the big cheese stays home over a spat. Guess he’s busy with more pressing matters, like perfecting his selfie game. 😏

    Just when you think diplomacy couldn’t get any more entertaining, Zelenskyy decides to skip the party because of a spat with Poland—classic game of “who can ignore who better”. 🎭 Honestly, it’s like watching two countries bicker over who’s got the best pierogi—glad to see the real issues are being tackled! 😏

    Looks like Zelenskyy decided to play hide and seek at the Recovery Conference—who knew diplomatic disputes were the new must-have accessory? 🤷‍♂️ Better brush up on those “concrete agreements” without him, eh? 🏗️

    Looks like Zelenskyy found a more pressing engagement than charming the Poles at a recovery conference—perhaps he’s busy perfecting his “let’s dispute” dance moves? 😂 Good luck, Yulia; hope they don’t serve pierogi at the wrong table! 🍽️💼

    Just splendid! Nothing says “recovery conference” quite like sending your second-in-command while the main act is busy bickering. 🤷‍♂️ Typical European drama, innit? 🍿

    Missing a big conference because of a spat? Classic! I suppose even leaders need a reason to skip out on the serious stuff now and then, right? 🙄

    Just what we needed—another diplomatic spat keeping Zelenskyy busy while the rest of us are trying to rebuild. 🙄 Guess Gdańsk will just have to manage without him; I’m sure there’s a charming café nearby for more “important” discussions. 🍵

    Seems like Zelenskyy found a more pressing engagement than smoothing over diplomatic wrinkles with Poland—perhaps a game of “who’s the bigger diplomat?” 🥴 Good luck, Yulia; hope the concrete agreements are less fragile than the politics! 💼

    Looks like Zelenskyy’s got a pressing schedule—who knew dodging a conference was part of the recovery plan? 🇺🇦💼 Just hope our friends in Poland don’t take it too personally; after all, it’s not like they need a strong alliance now, right? 😂

    Looks like Zelenskyy thought attending a recovery conference was just too mainstream, eh? 😂 Maybe he’s busy drafting a new diplomatic dispute manual instead of securing those “concrete agreements.” Cheers to alternative priorities! 🍻
