Poland's blue-chip index WIG20 .WIG20 is down 2.8%, falling the most among country indices in Europe, after U.S. President Donald Trump has paused military aid to Ukraine

Analysts note the lack of help from the United States to Ukraine adds to geopolitical risks for the entire region

"Today, the Polish market is also retreating, because here the intensity of such dangers or geopolitical risk is simply increasing also around our country", Erste Group analyst Jakub Szkopek says

Lenders Alior Bank ALRR.WA, PKO BP PKO.WA, Pekao PEO.WA, retailer LPP LPPP.WA are among top losers, falling between 2.9% and 3.2% at 0912 GMT

WIG20 is down to its three-week lows, and narrowing its YTD gains to 15.5%
