The article presents the commentaries of German press on the Polish presidency of the Council of the European Union. The analysis spans German national daily newspapers and weeklies examined in chronological order with focus on the crucial thematic content and political events. Poland held presidency of the EU in the second half of 2011 at a time of crisis, growing Euro-scepticism, the threat of a division of Europe into two speeds and parliamentary elections in Poland. The course of the presidency, achievement of preset goals, a pro-European tone of the statements of Polish politicians and unsuccessful attempts to deepen the idea of Eastern Partnership became the object of a critical but factual assessment of the German journalists. Eastern policy priorities oriented at increasing its effectiveness had to be modified but they can still be achieved in the future.
