- I confirm. Yesterday evening, discussions took place at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister, with the participation of representatives from the Ministry of National Defence, the Head of the Prime Minister's Chancellery, Mr. Michał Dworczyk, and myself. Indeed, an agreement has been reached between the government and the organizers of the Independence March - said Joachim Brudziński in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec on RMF FM.
- This agreement means there will be one joint march for all Poles. For all Poles, not just residents of Warsaw. We invite everyone to this shared celebration - Brudziński added.

Brudziński:
Officers on sick leave will return to duty when their health allows and their leave expires
- Officers on sick leave will return to work, to duty, when their health allows and their leave expires. I am convinced of this. Meanwhile, tomorrow there will be enough police officers on the streets of Warsaw to ensure security. We will, in accordance with the law and current regulations, utilize the support of other services - said Joachim Brudziński in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec on RMF FM.

Brudziński:
We Must Acknowledge that Lodz Residents Largely Supported President Zdanowska
- We want to be guided solely by the letter of the law. We also need to acknowledge, and not be afraid to acknowledge, that the residents of Lodz have, in their vast majority, given their support to President Zdanowska. This is a fact from which conclusions must also be drawn, but in a direction that attempts to organize the currently binding regulations - said Joachim Brudziński in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec on RMF FM.

Tusk:
Threats Are Visible to the Naked Eye
"Firstly, the geopolitical order on a global scale. I don't need to explain to anyone in this hall how real the Thucydides Trap has become again in human history, on a truly global scale, when a geopolitical order built on the dominance of one power begins to change before our eyes. It will be no surprise to anyone when I say that this currently dynamic balance could soon turn into a very dynamic imbalance, and today it concerns these two major actors on the global stage, namely China and the USA."He continued:
"I want to say that perhaps for the first time in history, as far as I can remember, we have an American administration today that, to put it mildly, is not enthusiastic about a united, strong Europe. I am speaking about facts here, not propaganda declarations. I speak as a person who has the, let's say, satisfaction of quite often exchanging direct remarks with the US President. Perhaps because we share the same name, he is quite open with me. I have no doubt that on these matters which, in my opinion, are the geopolitical foundation of Polish independence, namely a strong EU, even more intense integration between Europe and the USA than today, what is the essence of the world order, i.e., the transatlantic community, that I have somewhat different views on all of this than my most influential namesake in the world."- To this, we add the situation on our eastern border. Here too, we are dealing with a kind of Thucydides Trap; Russia, looking at the shift of power on a global scale, has reacted aggressively in Ukraine. We have a situation within the EU, most strikingly illustrated by Brexit, but also many other negative phenomena from the perspective of Europe, and therefore also of Polish national and state interest. I am referring here to the rise of nationalism and anti-European rhetoric, and not just rhetoric, but also anti-European emotions in many European capitals. This does not yet concern leaders today, but these forces are growing before our eyes - stated PDT.

Tusk:
Those who oppose our strong position in a united Europe today are actually opposing Polish independence

- One should not be too credulous. If I hear such words from a Polish Vice-President of the European Parliament: if European politicians continue to act with such political tact, we will soon face the necessity of a referendum in Poland on remaining in the EU. This is a Vice-President of the EP nominated by PiS. The leader of tomorrow's Independence March, in which Polish authorities will also participate, here's a quote: today we say that the EU in its current form is ending, and very well so, because it's a bad project. I won't even mention the words about an imagined community - Donald Tusk said in Łódź.

Tusk:
History is Happening Before Our Eyes, and Tragedy Could Strike
- I want to tell you that in this matter, there can be no misunderstandings or jokes. These are not anecdotes, lessons, or lectures from distant history. History is happening before our eyes, and tragedy could strike before our eyes. Especially since in a few months, we will be electing a parliament in Europe. It is not out of the question that two political currents will be in a very strong position in this parliament. One, increasingly brown, unequivocally anti-European, clearly emphasizing nationalism, and opposing the EU as such. And the second current, those who want to integrate the EU only as much as possible. And in both scenarios, there may be no place for Poland if, today in Warsaw, politics that also relies on national resentments and negative scenarios for the EU dominates. This is not a matter for future decades. This is a matter of future months. In the next few, a dozen or so months, another chapter will be written. Either an optimistic or a grim chapter of European integration history. And believe me, these words and events will also directly concern our independence - Donald Tusk said in Łódź.

Tusk:
Lech Wałęsa is the Hero and Father of Our Freedom. Period.
- I want to state emphatically once again, because it will probably be very important, especially today, on the eve of the anniversary of independence. After all, Piłsudski said that a nation that does not respect its past does not deserve a good future. So let's emphasize this once more, as clearly as possible. The hero, the father of our independence is Józef Piłsudski. The hero and father of our freedom is Lech Wałęsa. And that's that. No top-down historical policy will change that - said Donald Tusk in Łódź.

Tusk:
Piłsudski and Wałęsa Faced Tougher Odds. If They Could Defeat the Bolsheviks, Why Can't You Defeat Today's Bolsheviks?

- I don't understand why Donald Tusk is once again trying to divide Poles. He is provoking again, and doing so on the eve of Poland regaining its independence. Donald Tusk was indeed a master of this, but perhaps he should focus on his work in Brussels, rather than stirring up trouble, inciting, and dividing Poles, especially at such an important moment for all of us - stated Adam Bielan in a conversation with journalists, commenting on Donald Tusk's lecture.
- I think he is a frustrated politician who wants to get back into the game. It's unfortunate that Tusk is trying to present these divisive theses of his precisely on the eve of the centenary - added the Deputy Speaker of the Senate. As he emphasized, we have once again seen Tusk's wolfish eyes.

The Mayor of Warsaw comments on the court's decision to dismiss the appeal of the Warsaw City Hall regarding the Independence March.
Warsaw's Mayor, Hanna Gronkiewicz-Waltz, has stated that the full responsibility for securing the upcoming Independence March now lies with the ruling government, following a court's decision.
The Warsaw City Hall had appealed a previous court ruling concerning the organization and security of the Independence March. However, the appeal was dismissed, placing the burden of ensuring public safety and order during the event squarely on the shoulders of the government.
Gronkiewicz-Waltz's statement, shared via Twitter, indicates a shift in responsibility and potentially a critique of the government's approach to managing such large-scale public gatherings. The Independence March has historically been a focal point for both nationalistic sentiment and, at times, controversial gatherings, making its security a matter of significant public interest.

Lech Kaczyński Deserves Monuments and a Museum for His Service to the Homeland
- Without Lech Kaczyński, there would have been no Good Change. There would have been no attempt to make the Polish state just, more effective, well-developing, and sovereign. That is why he should have a monument, he should have monuments, there should be a museum, because he served the homeland well, very well – said Jarosław Kaczyński during the ceremony of unveiling the monument to Lech Kaczyński.

Duda:
Lech Kaczyński dedicated his entire adult life to a mission for his homeland and ultimately died for it
- We are in a free, independent Poland. A Poland that is sovereign, that is growing stronger. A Poland that is increasingly prosperous, where people are living better lives. Someone might ask why. Well, the answer is very simple. In large part, thanks to this man. Thanks to the President of the Republic, Mr. President Lech Kaczyński, who dedicated his entire adult life to a mission for his homeland and ultimately died for it - said Andrzej Duda during the ceremony to unveil the monument to Lech Kaczyński.
