"Ms. Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz should atone for her mistake, a decision taken with ill intentions [to ban the Independence March], by joining the national march, because I believe she identifies with the Polish state," stated Deputy Minister Jarosław Sellin on Radio Jedynka.

- I can take satisfaction that if I am so attacked and generate such interest, then I am truly a politician whom some may fear, and others reckon with. However, I cannot answer why this is the case. We know about politics, you comment on politics, I am involved in politics, and we know perfectly well that such things are never accidental – said Beata Szydło in an interview with Stanisław Janecki on "24 Questions" on Polish Radio 24.

- I try to perform my duties to the best of my ability, and I can say about myself that I am a loyal member of the government. I believe that's how you should play. If I join a team and I am part of that team, and I made the decision at the Prime Minister's invitation to continue cooperating, it means that I simultaneously commit to being loyal to that group - said Beata Szydło in an interview with Stanisław Janecki on "24 Questions" on Polskie Radio 24.

Yes [I will march on November 11th with the President] - stated Zofia Romaszewska in a conversation with Robert Mazurek on RMF FM. - I hope nothing special happens - she added.

- I consider this to be right [Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz's decision regarding the Independence March]. I believe that causing a ruckus in the heart of Warsaw, on the centenary of regaining independence, is simply madness that should have been banned. I would have nothing against marches if it weren't for the fact that, of course, it's known that there will be a ruckus. Therefore, in the context of a ruckus, such things should not be done - stated Zofia Romaszewska in an interview with Robert Mazurek on RMF FM.

- These are unprecedented events in Warsaw. When marches were held with racist slogans, and the city hall filed motions to dissolve these demonstrations, the ruling party justified what was happening. Currently, we face a greater threat. The police themselves stated a few days ago that they are unable to supervise this. A year or two ago, it looked like the police were rather ordered to deal with those protesting against racist slogans, not with those propagating such slogans - stated Rafał Trzaskowski in an interview with Piotr Witwicki on Polsat News' "Polityczne Graffiti".

- At 9 AM [on November 11th], we will be at Piłsudski's monument near Belweder with friends, including Donald Tusk and Grzegorz Schetyna. We will be at the graves of national heroes. We have our own idea of how to commemorate this day in a focused manner. We will be together at Piłsudski's monument - added the future mayor of Warsaw.

- I haven't received an invitation from Mr. President yet - stated Rafał Trzaskowski in an interview with Piotr Witwicki on Polsat News' "Polityczne Graffiti". - The President has confused me, because first he invites me to one march, and now to another. I will certainly spend this march on the streets of Warsaw in full focus - he added.

"I think that such a decision to ban the march is certainly difficult, but I believe we are primarily guided by everyone's safety. Assuming that democracy allows for freedom of speech, then as a person in charge, the primary duty of such a person is to ensure the safety of everyone" - said the president-elect of Kielce, Bogdan Wenta, on Radio Zet in conversation with Beata Lubecka.

„We see chaos, starting with those managing the state, through the head of state, meaning the decisions that over the past few days have likely changed every day from 'for' to 'against'” - said the president-elect of Kielce, Bogdan Wenta, on Radio Zet in an interview with Beata Lubecka.

„If we are talking about celebrations so important for our state, these hundred years of independence, and on the other hand, complicated history, then I think we would have had to prepare certain frameworks much earlier, speaking the language of a former athlete, the rules of the game: where it will take place, at which stadium, prepare all the access routes, so that we know that different types of fans will be at that stadium” - he added.

- The reasons are certainly complex [why United Right lost several percentage points in the last week of the campaign]. Undoubtedly, the opposition's narrative about Polexit was one of the main reasons. I think the extremely unfortunate spot about immigrants did us a lot of harm in large cities. I call it unfortunate even though I am a staunch supporter of the line our government presents. No agreement to accept immigrants from Islamic countries. I also think we overdid it with promises. There were so many they started to devalue - stated Jarosław Gowin in an interview with DoRzeczy.pl.

- The prosecution acted very quickly. The Internal Security Agency, which had a very significant role and reported on various actions, also acted. Later, a joint team was formed with the ABW, the prosecution, the KNF, and the CBA. There is a completely different approach here compared to the Amber Gold and GetBack scandals. It was much faster and there is coordination – said Marek Opioła in an interview with Jacek Prusinowski in "Sedno Sprawy" on Radio Plus.

- Me, my colleagues from Porozumienie, Solidarna Polska, and Law and Justice. In politics, mistakes are always made. If you are asking, gentlemen, if there is someone specific who bears responsibility for a slightly worse result than the polls indicated just before the end, then no, of course not. There is no such person. This smaller victory is a consequence of a sum of mistakes we made and a sum of successful actions by the opposition at the end of the campaign - stated Jarosław Gowin in an interview with DoRzeczy.pl. - I certainly see the seeds of a certain anti-PiS dynamic, or more broadly: anti-right-wing dynamic. If parliamentary elections were held tomorrow, I think the United Right would still have an independent majority. However, this process of the rise of anti-PiS sentiment has its own momentum. If we don't stop it, in a year the scale of victory might be too small to continue the United Right's rule - he added.

Firstly, it was the entire banking system and the financial instruments used, which also include banks and which they were effectively selling. Many mechanisms did not function properly. I am talking about financial institutions because they led to the situation where these instruments, which we now say were simply bad instruments that caused people to lose their savings, were sold by banks. The media have the names of these banks, and they are serious banks. Here lies the fundamental issue and difficulty of this case. It's the entire banking system. I'm not saying there will be an immediate new law. We have agreed on an end with the prosecution, with ABW, CBA, and we will also ask KNF to draw conclusions, what instruments should work, and how to change the law in Poland so that scandals of this nature do not emerge - said Marek Opioła in an interview with Jacek Prusinowski on Radio Plus's "Sedno Sprawy" (The Heart of the Matter).

- The government has changed negotiators, and talks are underway to reach a compromise regarding joint celebrations of November 11th - Krzysztof Bosak announced on the Onet Opinie program. He also added that the organizers of the Independence March "do not wish for banners with racist slogans." - If such people appear at the march, they may have problems with the services, as well as with the march stewards - he stated.

Bosak stated that the organizers also do not want slogans of a fascist nature, which are not close to national circles. - From our perspective, as Catholics, it is a tragedy that someone is trying to blur this line - Bosak stated. - Many people are not aware that ONR (National Radical Camp) is very strongly opposed to such things. It is a national-radical organization, but also a Catholic one - the Vice-President of RN (National Movement) argued.

Bosak was also asked whether joint celebrations of November 11th are possible. - I am certain that an agreement will be reached, allowing everyone to celebrate independence - he stated.

"We will appeal, we are filing an appeal. I believe that the provision allowing for a preventative ban is dead. Therefore, it can essentially be abolished. If a march can never be banned, it means the provision is dead and can be eliminated rather than relying on it to grant permission, because no court has ever ruled that a ban is appropriate" - said the Mayor of Warsaw, Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz, at a press conference.

„There is an argument in the form of the Prime Minister's order yesterday, that he will dispatch the Military Police to assist the police. Our assessments were correct, that the police wouldn't cope. Thanks to the Prime Minister, we have proof that the police wouldn't cope and that the support of the Military Police is needed” – said the Mayor of Warsaw, Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz.

Marek Magierowski, in a special film prepared by the Polish Embassy in Israel, presents Polish inventions.

Good morning, good evening!

On the occasion of Poland's upcoming Independence Day anniversary, I will tell you the story of the struggles for Polish independence. Let us focus on characteristic innovations and achievements that have become part of the development of the entire world.

Evidence one – the paperclip. Yes, we invented the paperclip. It's one of those things you can't find when you really need it. Try changing a SIM card in your phone without a real, Polish paperclip.

Evidence two – windshield wipers. Yes, we also came up with windshield wipers. I realize that among your friends, this may not be a particularly well-known device, but believe me, they are widely used in Europe. Unfortunately.

The mine detector. This was also invented by Poles. An alternative tool for diplomats.

We are also the authors of the most extravagant men's hairstyles in history.

Here are ski jumps. We didn't invent ski jumping, but it is one of the areas where we are a world power. Check out Kamil Stoch on the internet.

A final, but no less important example. We also found a way to get rid of an unpleasant regime.

At the next Sejm session, in two weeks, MPs will elect the Children's Ombudsman – according to a preliminary schedule seen by 300POLITYKA. The procedure for his election began a few days ago, and candidates can be nominated until November 15th. The election will take place on Friday, November 23rd, during the morning session between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM.

On the same day, the Sejm will also vote on a motion to grant consent for the criminal prosecution and the application of a preventive measure in the form of temporary detention for Stanisław Gawłowski. The previous evening, MPs will hear the report of the rules committee.

A sharp exchange has erupted between Deputy Minister of Interior and Administration, Beata Mazurek, and MP Tomasz Nitras, concerning the latter's recent statements and past political actions. Mazurek, a prominent figure within the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party, has publicly questioned Nitras, a member of the Civic Platform (PO), about his recent experiences and remarks.

In a pointed social media post, Mazurek directly addressed Nitras: "Did you experience any new, over-the-top white ecstasies in the USA? Are the ones from the coup no longer strong enough?" This rhetorical question alludes to Nitras's alleged involvement or strong support for protests that PiS has characterized as an attempted coup. The phrase "białe ponadstandardowe uniesienia" (white over-the-top ecstasies) is a highly colloquial and loaded expression, suggesting an excessive and perhaps irrational display of emotion or enthusiasm.

Mazurek's statement further clarifies the context of her accusation: "The penalty concerns October 4th." This likely refers to the events of October 4th, 2018, when a large protest, known as the "Sunday of Free Europe," took place in Warsaw, organized by the opposition. The ruling party has often accused the opposition of using divisive tactics and engaging in actions detrimental to the state during such events.

The reference to the USA suggests that Nitras may have made controversial statements or exhibited certain behaviors during a recent trip to the United States, which Mazurek is now leveraging to criticize his overall political stance and perceived radicalism. The implication is that Nitras's recent "ecstasies" in the US are a continuation or escalation of his previous "coup-related" actions, which Mazurek deems insufficient or no longer potent enough to generate the desired effect.

This exchange highlights the ongoing intense political polarization in Poland, where opposing parties frequently engage in confrontational rhetoric and personal attacks. Mazurek's statement, using vivid and emotionally charged language, aims to discredit Nitras and his political faction by portraying them as overly emotional, irrational, and potentially disloyal.

- In connection with the publication on November 8, 2018, on the wPolityce.pl portal of an article titled - EXCLUSIVE. We Know the Inside Story of the 'Hitler's Birthday' Investigation. Mysterious Clients, Big Money, and a TVN Journalist in the Background - members of the National Broadcasting Council (KRRiT) have submitted a request to the District Prosecutor's Office in Gliwice for information concerning the Prosecutor's findings regarding the broadcaster's (TVN SA Company) involvement in the events under investigation - KRRiT announced on its website.

In a block of votes, MPs rejected the citizen-initiated bill proposing the abolition of mandatory vaccinations. Consequently, the proposal will not be further processed. The PiS (Law and Justice) parliamentary club voted almost entirely 'for' rejection – only MP Siarkowska voted against, while MPs Bubula and Szyszko abstained. 

- I am saddened by the level represented by Marshal Mazurek. Please note that at the same time, the Marshal is deciding who is violating the good name of the Sejm. I will ask the Sejm Ethics Committee to sanction the Marshal. At the same time, I remind you that my lawsuit against the Marshal of the Sejm for harassment and humiliation is pending in court. Marshal Mazurek's statements only give me further arguments in the ongoing case - says Sławomir Nitras in an interview with 300POLITYKĄ. Nitras referred to this tweet by Mazurek: https://twitter.com/beatamk/status/1060847807106596865

- PiS is a moderate party. We are a pluralistic party. There are individuals like Krystyna Pawłowicz, and others who formulate their views differently. This is also good because we are not an army; everyone has their own temperament, their own ideas, and the voters verify us. PJK told Tarczyński that the words he used at the podium were unacceptable. There is no different standard here for PiS MPs and the opposition. After the seniors' convention, there was a decision to punish Ryszard Petru, as well as Tarczyński - stated Jacek Sasin in a conversation with Marek Kacprzak on the WP program "Tłit".

- Patryk Jaki in PiS? I think the path is open. We gladly welcome those who want to change Poland with us. Patryk Jaki has been doing this for a very long time. One way or another, he is in our camp – stated Jacek Sasin in an interview with Marek Kacprzak on the program "Tłit" WP.

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of regaining independence, important buildings and objects in many countries will be illuminated in white and red. This is an expression of solidarity and respect for Poland's path to freedom, and a demonstration of the strong bonds connecting us with our friends and partners. The decision to illuminate these buildings in white and red is a symbolic gesture, which testifies to the importance that the international community attaches to the historical moment of Poland's rebirth. It is a beautiful expression of friendship and recognition of Poland's contribution to the European and global order. I am glad that many countries have decided to join this initiative, which will allow us to celebrate this special day together. It is a confirmation of our shared values and the importance of freedom, democracy and solidarity in the modern world. The illuminations will be a visible sign of our shared joy and pride in the 100th anniversary of Poland's independence. I invite everyone to join us in celebrating this important anniversary and to witness these symbolic illuminations that will light up the world in white and red.

The National Council of the Judiciary considers the order issued on November 5, 2018, by retired Supreme Court Justice Stanisław Zabłocki, regarding the "removal of cases from the court docket" assigned to Supreme Court Justice Wojciech Sych and the failure to assign Justice Wojciech Sych to judging panels, which effectively deprives him of his ability to perform his judicial duties, to be contrary to the constitutional order of the Republic of Poland – the NCS stated in its published position.

"A judge's right to adjudicate in the name of the Republic of Poland stems from the act of appointment to the office of judge issued by the President of the Republic of Poland. The Constitution of the Republic of Poland does not provide for the verification of this prerogative of the President of the Republic of Poland by any state body. Actions aimed at negating the validity of the appointment act undermine the foundations of the rule of law. In a situation where such actions are taken by an active or retired judge, they prove unworthy of the office entrusted to them by the Republic of Poland.

It is evident that the order of the Vice-President of the Court of Justice of the European Union dated October 19, 2018, under reference C-619/18, concerning interim measures, is not a law-making act and does not have a direct legal effect in the form of restoring retired judges to active service, as is clear from its content (point 1, third indent). The addressee of the order is the Republic of Poland, which has been obliged to undertake legislative actions. Until the legal status changes, the effects arising from the previously binding law remain in force. This means that retired Supreme Court Justice Stanisław Zabłocki remains in retirement and, like other Supreme Court justices who have retired, cannot undertake any administrative or adjudicative actions.

We have long declared our openness to talks. These talks have been ongoing, they were indeed continued. Yesterday, we managed to reach an important agreement. The situation was very difficult. We don't hide that. It was necessary to achieve stabilization and to ensure that Poles are safe. I think this agreement will serve precisely that purpose – said Jarosław Zieliński in the Sejm. We had already proposed an increase earlier, which was to be implemented from July. This increase, which is additional support. The increases, which have been written into the agreement, will be financed from the state budget. Appropriate transfers must be made for the year 2019. Then, when shaping the budget law for 2020, so that this agreement can be fulfilled – added Zieliński. Our goal was, on the one hand, to end the protest of trade unions, all trade union centers operating in the uniformed services. Furthermore, so that police officers and other officials are in service and return to duty as soon as they possibly can – the Deputy Minister of the Interior and Administration continued. The social situation is sometimes not easy, this one was not easy – stated Zieliński.

As 300POLITYKA has learned, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki's special address dedicated to the 100th anniversary of regaining independence will be broadcast at 8:00 PM.

According to our sources, the head of the Polish government is expected to invite everyone, regardless of their views or political affiliations, to jointly celebrate the 100th anniversary of regaining independence.

The address is scheduled to be shown on TVP, among other channels, and likely on other television networks, as well as on the Chancellery of the Prime Minister's (KPRM) information channels.

- If swastikas appear, I will definitely disperse it, because it's simply a violation of the law - said Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz in an interview with Piotr Marciniak on "Fakty po faktach" TVN24.

- Since it is organized by the Ministry of National Defence, and the police, I hope, since this police protest has concluded and there will be soldiers and military police to assist the police, as decreed by the Prime Minister in his order, I think [the banner with content prohibited by law] will be immediately removed - added the Mayor of Warsaw.

I neither help nor harm the government at all. I primarily strive, and it is my duty, within my competences, to ensure security. Having limited forces, as the forces are on the side of the police, the government, meaning the military – said Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz in an interview with Piotr Marciniak on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach".

- No. I'm in the Crisis Management Center, watching what's happening, because that's my duty – said Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz in an interview with Piotr Marciniak on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach".

- The situation is fluid, and it is my duty, just like a year ago, two years ago, to observe this situation from the crisis center – added the Mayor of Warsaw.

- Firstly, nobody invited me. Secondly, I have my own celebration. Tomorrow is my 45th wedding anniversary. That's more important to me. Even if there had been an invitation. Secondly, it's a matter of, I believe, this monument should be placed in the Warsaw Uprising Museum – said Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz in an interview with Piotr Marciniak on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts after Facts).

Ladies and Gentlemen! Dear Compatriots! - living both in Poland and beyond the borders of our Homeland!

In the coming days, we will all celebrate the centenary of Poland's regaining Independence! A hundred years ago, our ancestors - through heroism, arms, and diplomatic work - fought for a free Republic for us. They gifted us a Homeland, which even today – regardless of age, place of residence, education, and profession – we all sincerely love.

In these days, we remember the fathers of our independence: Józef Piłsudski, Roman Dmowski, Ignacy Jan Paderewski, Wincenty Witos, Wojciech Korfanty, and Ignacy Daszyński. Before and after regaining independence, many issues divided them, and they often fiercely debated amongst themselves. But in those crucial days, months, and years for Poland, they had one common goal: a free, independent, sovereign Homeland.

It is thanks to the efforts of these eminent statesmen and the endeavors of the entire society that a country without its own institutions, without its own economy, without its own currency and law, became an important state on the map of Europe. It became a white and red community of the Polish Nation. The beloved Second Polish Republic.

For the past 250 years, many generations of Poles had to suffice with independence hidden in Polish hearts, minds, and hopes. For there are few countries in the world similarly tested by history. And countries that – like us – can be proud that in their difficult history, they passed the test of humanity, sacrifice, and solidarity. We passed it. But history does not end.

The anniversary of regaining independence is a date that should above all remind us of our great commitment to Poland's future. Of how our country will look in the coming years and in the next hundred years. What kind of Poland we want to leave to our children, grandchildren, our national community, in this relay of generations.

A free Poland is a commitment to set ambitious goals through which we will make Poland stronger and life in it – happier. The fundamental task of the Polish state must therefore be the consistent improvement of the quality of life for Polish families. Through pro-family policies, thanks to the entrepreneurship of Poles, by creating increasingly better quality jobs, strengthening the power of the Polish economy, we can, within a dozen or so years, achieve what has practically never happened in Poland's history: catch up with the developed countries of the West.

We must do everything to make our common home safe and prosperous for many, many years to come. This is a task for today's patriots, the government, citizens, as well as the opposition. Our common task.

In defense of European values, Poland repelled the Soviet onslaught in 1920, and then stood to fight against Nazi Germany. Having been a victim of two criminal systems, no one understands the immense value of individual freedom and being a member of a democratic community of nations better than Poland.

Today, as an active member state of the European Union, we are demonstrating that we are one of the most pro-European nations. Poland's future will always be Europe. The European project is also a Polish project, and it is in Poland's national interest for the European Union to be a success story. Therefore, strengthening the European Union is and will remain the absolute foundation of Polish foreign policy.

There are matters that transcend immediate disputes and divisions. Such as security, the standard of living of Poles, or the good name of Poland. But also respect for citizens and among citizens – with different sensitivities, different views, different life and ideological choices. Let us seek what unites us, what allows us to build a community and contributes to strengthening Poland's position. We all probably agree that dialogue brings more benefit than two monologues. Therefore, I invite all Poles, all political factions, to jointly work for our security and economic development. These can be our bipartisan commitments that we will implement beyond political divisions. There is enough room for everyone under the white and red flag! On this special Independence Day, let us joyfully celebrate our freedom. The freedom of the nation and the freedom of each of us. Let's celebrate it together, as families, with neighbors. Together with those with whom we may not fully agree on certain matters on a daily basis. But we should agree on one thing – our own, independent state is our greatest treasure, our greatest value, and our greatest chance for a good future for Poland. I wish for all of us to make the most beautiful use of this hope for a better future together. May this celebration be observed in every corner of our Homeland, but also around the world, wherever our compatriots are. May these be joint celebrations. A celebration of free and proud Poles. Poland has not yet perished as long as we live.

- Our goal is to ensure security. To ensure that Mrs. Gronkiewicz-Waltz, the Mayor of Warsaw, who is attempting to wage war with the organizers of the Independence March, does not lead to a crisis through her actions - said Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec, on the program "Gość Wiadomości" TVP Info.

- For us, the most important people are those who come to Warsaw, or the Varsovians who march in the Independence March every year. They are proud to be Poles. They rejoice in regaining independence. Sunday's date will be a special date, an exceptional date, and therefore we have done everything to ensure these celebrations were dignified - said Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec, on the program 'Gość Wiadomości' on TVP Info.

Unionized officers, after many hours of negotiations with the head of the Ministry of Interior and Administration, have secured pay raises, 100% overtime pay, and the possibility of early retirement. -- BATTLE FOR MARCHES IN THE CAPITAL - preview: There was supposed to be one, and everything indicates there will be two. One organized by the government, and the other by nationalists. Both marches are to follow the same route, and it is unclear which one has priority according to regulations. -- YESTERDAY EVENING, THE WARSAW GOVERNMENT WITHDREW THE BAN ON THE ORGANIZATION OF THE INDEPENDENCE MARCH ISSUED BY THE MAYOR OF WARSAW - Dariusz Ociepa. -- NATIONALISTS WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO MARCH WITH THEIR OWN FLAGS AND BANNERS - Ociepa. -- THE PRESIDENT AND THE GOVERNMENT WANT ONLY WHITE AND RED FLAGS AT THE STATE MARCH - Ociepa. -- THE GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO CONVINCE NATIONALISTS TO JOIN THE STATE MARCH ON ITS TERMS - Ociepa. -- BY ISSUING A BAN ON THE INDEPENDENCE MARCH, THE MAYOR OF WARSAW SHIFTED RESPONSIBILITY TO THE GOVERNMENT AND THE PRESIDENT - Ociepa. -- WHATEVER HAPPENS, HGW WILL BE ABLE TO SAY: DIDN'T I TELL YOU SO? - Ociepa. -- THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE HELPED BY THE END OF THE POLICE PROTEST - Ociepa. -- THE OPPOSITION HAS ANNOUNCED THAT IT WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE MARCH - Ociepa. -- THREE DEPUTIES FROM THREE DIFFERENT PARTIES WILL PAY FOR THEIR WORDS - preview: All of them were spoken in the Sejm and left much to be desired in public debate. Ryszard Petru, Dominik Tarczyński, and Sławomir Nitras will have their salaries reduced by half. -- PRESIDENT KACZYŃSKI'S WORDS TO PETRU "JUST SHUT UP" WERE SAID DURING VOTING, RIGHT AFTER PETRU LEARNED HE WAS PUNISHED WITH A HALF SALARY REDUCTION FOR 3 MONTHS - Agnieszka Milczarz. -- PETRU DID NOT FIND OUT WHY TARCZYŃSKI FOR THE STATEMENT "IDIOT" TOWARDS PROTASIEWICZ WAS PUNISHED WITH A HALF SALARY REDUCTION, BUT NOT FOR 3 MONTHS, BUT FOR ONE MONTH - Milczarz. -- THE WORD "IDIOT" TOWARDS PROTASIEWICZ WAS USED THREE TIMES - Milczarz. -- THIS MOTIVATES ME TO OVERTHROW THIS DICTATOR - Ryszard Petru. -- SŁAWOMIR NITRAS WAS ALSO PUNISHED - Milczarz. -- NITRAS WANTS MAZUREK PUNISHED FOR A TWEET ADDRESSED TO HIM BY THE ETHICS COMMITTEE - Milczarz. ***** TVN FACTS -- The legal battle continues, but the march will happen - it's just not entirely clear if it will be one or two. Two days before the centenary celebrations of regaining independence, we have declarations of participation from the president, prime minister, PiS politicians, and nationalists. -- THIS IS NOT A USUAL SITUATION, THAT 48 HOURS BEFORE THE MARCH, A POLITICAL CRISIS STAFF IS CONVENED TO SAVE THE SITUATION - Krzysztof Skórzyński. -- EVERY COMMUNICATION STARTED WITH "I BELIEVE THAT..." - Skórzyński. -- THE GOVERNMENT HAS HAD A PROBLEM SINCE YESTERDAY - Skórzyński. -- ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION FROM FAKTY, GOVERNMENT TALKS WITH NATIONALISTS HAVE BEEN ONGOING SINCE DAWN - Skórzyński. -- IT IS ALMOST CERTAIN THAT NO FORMAL AGREEMENT WILL BE SIGNED, BUT A GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT HAS BEEN REACHED - Skórzyński. -- THOSE GATHERED WILL WAIT UNTIL 3 PM AND THEN THE MARCH WILL START, COMBINED BUT ON STATE TERMS, WITHOUT FLARES AND BANNERS, ONLY WITH FLAGS - Skórzyński. -- With the help of the police, army, and gendarmerie, peace and security for VIPs and participants of the November 11th march can be ensured. It is harder to ban participation of neo-fascists from Poland and abroad. It cannot be certain that they will not bring scandalous banners and chant scandalous slogans. -- MACIEJ KNAPIK ON PiS POLITICIANS NOT WANTING TO TALK ABOUT POSSIBLE DISRUPTIONS: The official optimism of the Deputy Minister of National Defense and a similar stance of the Minister of Interior and Administration show that PiS politicians are sticking to the government and presidential version. And they do not want to talk about possible disruptions. -- WOJCIECH SKURKIEWICZ: Absolutely, the march will be safe, it will be well secured. -- However, online, Młodzież Wszechpolska (All-Polish Youth) complains that the police and ABW are calling the organizers of the Independence March. The police respond that such methods would be "child's play" and that it is not true - Knapik. -- POLICE HEADQUARTERS SPOKESPERSON: We are gathering information on an ongoing basis - both operational information, which I cannot disclose, and information that is coming in through the media. -- KNAPIK ON THE APPEAL OF INSURGENTS IN A GOVERNMENT SPOT: Online - on one hand, aggressive extremist groups. On the other hand - an appeal from the Warsaw Insurgents and a reminder that Poland fought against fascism. But extremist groups will not heed any appeals - says the opposition. -- JAN GRABIEC: Having become emboldened by these three years of indulgence, they are now ready for much more aggressive behavior. -- Canada and the United States are warning their citizens to avoid the march route, crowds, and demonstrations on November 11th. Do not draw attention to yourself and follow local media. The police are also assuming worst-case scenarios, but they are reassuring - Knapik. -- CAPITAL CITY POLICE HEADQUARTERS SPOKESPERSON: We must prepare for every scenario, but above all, we assume positive scenarios. -- AUTHORS OF RACIST POSTERS ARE EASY TO FIND ONLINE - KNAPIK: Authors of last year's racist posters were easy to find - by names and symbols - online. On their pages last year, there was a Hitler salute, which is still there, and below it, information about this year's march with the annotation: "flags, banners, and all organization symbols (...) can be freely presented." There is also a video online promoting aggressive behavior, and to the symbolism presented in it, government member Jacek Sasin responded to a PO deputy in "Fakty po Faktach" by saying that "the sun shines in the sky, and you associate it with a Nazi symbol." -- It shines in the sky?! This is a Nazi emblem - Krzysztof Brejza did not back down.
