Associated Press

   WARSAW, POLAND - An aide to Poland's president says that President
   Donald Trump will visit Warsaw from Aug. 31 through Sept. 2 to take
   part in observances marking the 80th anniversary of World War II.

   It would be Trump's second visit to Poland since July 2017. Poland is
   among Washington's closest partners in Europe, with cooperation
   focusing on defense and energy security.
   The head of President Andrzej Duda's office, Krzysztof Szczerski, said
   Tuesday that Trump would arrive in Warsaw on the evening of Aug. 31.
   The next day Trump will take part in ceremonies in Warsaw marking 80
   years since Nazi German troops invaded Poland on Sept. 1, 1939 starting
   the war.
   He would depart on Sept. 2.
   Trump has hosted Duda twice at the White House.
