On Thursday the Polish PM will honour the victims of 9/11 World Trade Center attack, visit the New York Stock Exchange, take part in a Polish-U.S. business forum at the Polish consulate and meet with Polish-American media.

On Friday Szydlo will take part in the signing of the Paris climate deal at the U.N. headquarters.

The prime minister's Saturday itinerary includes a visit to Doylestown, Pennsylvania, where she will meet with the Polish-American community.
