The recall of ambassadors named by the previous Euro-skeptic right-wing government is much needed to ensure professional implementation of the Polish foreign policy. This is vital as the country navigates through a challenging time in which, close to its own borders, Ukraine resists Russia's war of aggression.
Tusk and his Cabinet have no constitutional legitimacy to appoint or dismiss ambassadors without presidential support, so this move is nothing but performative. While the constitution demands cooperation on foreign policy, this isn't to say that the president must sign all proposals from the prime minister.
