This is the hardest editorial note I’ve ever written in my 35 years editing business magazines. It is difficult to focus on writing about Poland’s real-estate and construction sector when Russia has unleashed an invasion of our neighbour. The long-term implications for the security and economy of our region will be immense – the reconstruction of Central and Eastern Europe both physically and politically awaits. But in the short term, we can but hope and pray for a swift and bloodless resolution to war, unlikely though that seems at this moment.
