President Tusk,

I want to extend to you my congratulations on Civic Platform's success in the general election. Personally and on behalf of the French people, I wish you every success in the new office the Polish electorate has just entrusted to you.

Please be assured of my determination to work to strengthen cooperation between our two countries within the European Union in line with the friendship uniting France and Poland.

(complimentary close)./.
