WARSAW - The Polish government has published a list on Tuesday evening of 8 non-EU countries with which international passenger flights to and from Poland will be resumed.

Starting July 1, airlines can resume their connections with Japan, South Korea, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, Montenegro, Georgia, Canada and Albania.
