History

Bilateral relations between Poland and Albania are dated since 1937 when the two countries established diplomatic relations. However, in this years Poland did not have diplomatic mission in Albania and instead was represented by Poland Envoy to Greece residing in Athens. In 1938 he attended the wedding of King Zogu I of Albania and Princess Geraldine Apponyi. During World War II diplomatic relations were ceased. In 1945 Poland and Albania restored diplomatic relations. In 1949 Poland opened embassy in Tirana. In 1966 Polish People's Republic acknowledged activities of then Albania Ambassador to Poland as inconsistent with international standards. In retaliation, the Albanian side expelled then Poland Ambassador to Albania. Since that time until 1990 diplomatic relations between two countries were weak. After the fall of communism in Albania diplomatic relations have improved. [2]
