Also at noon, Marshal Stanisław Karczewski will hold a New Year's meeting with the diplomatic corps. Meanwhile, at 12:30 PM, a press conference will be held with the participation of Education Minister Anna Zalewska. The topic of the conference: Declaration for the Education of the Future.

Miller:

When I Look at the Sejm or Important Political Events, a Certain Longing Arises

It's a drug [politics], but it's a drug that softens with the passage of time. However, when I look at the Sejm or important political events, a certain longing undeniably arises – stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".

When asked about his run for the European Parliament, the former Prime Minister replied: – Former prime ministers and former foreign ministers met not to form a coalition election committee, let alone to discuss seats in this committee, but to develop an appeal and send it to various political parties and social organizations for the formation of a broad coalition in the hope that these parties would undertake it.


07:49

Miller:

From what I hear, there's a significant group in the SLD who believe we should form a separate coalition with the PSL
- Well, of course [it will be difficult to avoid running]. I repeat once again: there was no discussion about candidate lists or the name of the committee. Of course, we assume that if it [the coalition] is formed, it will be called the European Coalition, but as far as the SLD is concerned, there is a convention on Saturday and the convention will decide on what formula it will proceed. The same applies to the PSL and other potential groupings that could be in this coalition - stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego". - From what I hear, there's a significant group in the SLD who believe we should form a separate coalition with the PSL. Because going with the PSL means a coalition of equals. Whereas going with the Platform [Civic Platform] does not mean a coalition of equals - he added. - We formulated an appeal at that meeting, but we have no influence on what the political parties do with this appeal - emphasized the former prime minister.

07:55

Miller:

My Decision Depends on My Wife's. My MEP Role Means I'm Not Home, and That's a Problem for Both of Us. I Need to Understand the Political Conditions.
Then [if the SLD decides to join the European Coalition] I will consider it. I will talk, for example, with my wife, because my decision depends on my wife's decision. You know why. My wife is very close to me, she is the closest person. My role as an MEP means I am not at home, and that is a problem for me and for my wife - stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego". Today I won't say anything because it's all premature. I must first understand the political conditions that would arise, whether this coalition will be formed, see what my domestic situation is, in close agreement with my wife, and then I will make a decision - he added.

07:59

Miller:

I'm not a dinosaur because I'm too small. Old age isn't a punishment, and youth isn't a reward. Saying someone isn't suitable because they're too old is primitive.

- I'm not a dinosaur because I'm too small. Although I am slightly overweight, I am far from… Old age is not a punishment, and youth is not a reward. Those young people who say so, if they are lucky and in good health, will one day reach old age, but they must earn it. So, saying that someone is not suitable because they are too old also means that someone is not suitable because they are too young. It's quite a primitive criterion - stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego."


08:02

Miller:

I Think If Tusk Showed Interest in Polish Politics, It Would Be in the Context of Presidential Elections

- I think that if Donald Tusk showed interest in Polish politics, it would rather be in the context of presidential elections. I have no authority to speak on behalf of Donald Tusk. Well yes [he visited me at home], but then I had the impression that, firstly, he had not made a decision on this matter, and secondly, that if anything, it would be presidential elections - stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".


08:08

Miller:

There's Always an Electorate in Poland Sensitive to Media Presence and Charisma of Their Leader. Now it's Biedroń's Turn

- There's always an electorate in Poland sensitive to the media presence and charisma of their leader. 8 years ago it was Janusz Palikot, 4 years ago it was Kukiz and Petru, and now it's Biedroń's turn. But this is more of a marketing move. Take a look at the name of this party. Political parties in Poland, those with deeper roots, have a certain ideological, political characteristic in their names. However, names like Wiosna (Spring) or Teraz (Now) completely lack this characteristic, as they are products of media-driven politics. The problem these parties face, and it will also be Robert Biedroń's problem, is that when they enter the Sejm, they suddenly collide with their own statements in relation to real conditions. What I can only ponder is that Biedroń was in the Sejm and knows how the parliamentary machinery [works] - stated Leszek Miller in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".

Cimoszewicz on the Srebrna Affair: We're Dealing with an Example of Circumventing the Law. The Symbol is that Kaczyński Acted as Proxy for His Secretary at One Point.

"There is so much material that someone must deal with it in a very meticulous, detailed manner. I have the impression that we are dealing with another example of circumventing the law through various legal tricks. The symbol of this situation is that Mr. Kaczyński acted as proxy for his secretary at one point. In my opinion, this is compromising for a former prime minister and for a politician of such significance to resort to these kinds of formulas" - Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz said in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet. 


08:32

Cimoszewicz Asked if He'll Be the 'Number One' on the European Coalition's Warsaw List: 'Perhaps it's a Conjecture, a Rumor. Running in Warsaw Isn't Ruled Out'

Perhaps it's a conjecture, a rumor [that I will be the 'number one' in Warsaw on the list for the EP]. I have publicly declared several times that I am ready to help the European Coalition. In what form, we shall see. For now, I am helping by supporting and developing the idea” – said Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet. 

Running in Warsaw isn't ruled out, but whether there are such plans, the people leading the coalition will be able to answer that question” – he added.


08:35

Cimoszewicz:

I'd estimate the probability of a single list for PO, SLD, Nowoczesna, PSL, UED, and local government figures at 90%

The probability of a single opposition list [PO, SLD, Nowoczesna, PSL, UED, local government figures] I would estimate at 90%. It is very probable” - Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz said in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet.

Romaszewska Opposes a Mazowiecki Monument in Warsaw:

The President is a Young Man.

"No," Zofia Romaszewska answered Robert Mazurek's question on RMF FM when asked if it was a good idea to erect a monument to Tadeusz Mazowiecki in Warsaw. "Because I don't like Tadeusz Mazowiecki," she added.

"His part of life associated with the 1950s... Maybe it's not worth mentioning the topic, because we have nothing to talk about. It seems to me that it's not worth talking about. We already dislike each other enough," the advisor to the President of Poland continued.

"The President is a young man. He is not aware of what reality was like in those times," Romaszewska replied to Mazurek's statement that it was the president's idea.


08:53

Romaszewska:

I Never Had Anything Against Gersdorf Being First President of the Supreme Court

Courts, to the greatest extent, what we can say is that they have gone mad due to a lack of any control and forgetting altogether that they are the third branch of government, which, just like any other, can be criticized and praised. They have completely detached themselves from the reality of our country – stated Zofia Romaszewska in an interview with Robert Mazurek on RMF FM.

When asked about withdrawing from the reform, she replied: – Because we are in a pan-European situation, where there is very strong pressure on this matter. – Personally, I never had anything against [Małgorzata Gersdorf] being [First President of the Supreme Court] – she added.

Girzyński on Kujda: His Biography Shows a Lustration Problem, as He Avoided Positions Requiring Such Scrutiny

It is nothing pleasant when we learn that a person has collaborated with the Security Service (SB). I do not know Mr. [Kujda], I have never met him, but considering the various positions and matters he has been involved in, it is evident that he is an important figure in the community. His biography also shows that he has this lustration problem, as he avoided positions that would have required him to be scrutinized” – said Zbigniew Girzyński from PiS in a conversation with Jacek Prusinowski on the program „Sedno sprawy” on Radio Plus.

Civic Platform Demands Andruszkiewicz's Resignation and Government Information on Prosecution's Actions at Next Sejm Session
On behalf of the Civic Platform club, we will submit a request to the Marshal of the Sejm for government information regarding Minister Andruszkiewicz and the prosecution's actions. This information should be provided at the Sejm session on February 20th, and we demand full information on the prosecution's activities, as well as control conclusions from the Białystok prosecutor's office, from which information is emerging about the blocking of proceedings concerning nationalists, radical groups, and Deputy Minister Andruszkiewicz himself. A multi-year process, in a very straightforward case, should have long been closed in court. It is clear that the prosecution, and especially Ms. Pieniążek, is doing everything to ensure these proceedings do not reach a conclusion. We demand the resignation of Minister Andruszkiewicz from Prime Minister Morawiecki. His presence in the government not only defies the seriousness and dignity of the government but is also a threat to security” – said Andrzej Halicki from Civic Platform at a press conference. “The situation in the Białystok prosecutor's office illustrates the scale to which society has lost any supervisory control over the judiciary, not only in Podlaskie but across the country. The prolonged proceedings regarding Andruszkiewicz only illustrate this lack of oversight over the actions of the prosecution and Minister Ziobro” – added Tomasz Cimoszewicz.

12:12

Sasin:

I was surprised and saddened by the information that Mr. Kujda collaborated with the SB

- I was surprised and saddened by the information that Mr. Kujda collaborated with the SB. I hope that President Kujda himself will know what to do next. As for Jarosław Kaczyński's recordings - there is no scandal, the PiS chairman did not break the law - stated Jacek Sasin in an interview with Marek Kacprzak on WP's "Tłit" program.

- It's not about the fact of undertaking this cooperation itself, because as we know, situations could have been different then. But concealing such cooperation, denying it, not disclosing this cooperation is something reprehensible - he added.


12:14

Sasin:

We Are Not Particularly Afraid of Tusk

- We are not particularly afraid of Donald Tusk. We know that Poles have good memories, that they remember Donald Tusk's governments. I think they will not want a repeat of that entertainment. It is Donald Tusk who is desperately trying to return to Polish politics - stated Jacek Sasin in an interview with Marek Kacprzak on WP's program "Tłit".

Halicki:

Poland's Stance on Nord Stream 2 Can Be Called Abdication

"The issue of the stance on Nord Stream 2 can be called an abdication," said Andrzej Halicki from Civic Platform (PO) at a press conference.

"PiS made the issue of blocking the Nord Stream 2 project one of the main tenets of its international policy. The directive, which was finally adopted by the council on Friday, was meant to serve this purpose. It was supposed to block Nord Stream 2. As a result of the marginalization of Poland's position in the European Union, and due to PiS's inability to build coalitions in the EU, this directive is very harmful because instead of blocking the Nord Stream 2 project, it legitimizes its existence and makes the German government the sole regulator who will decide on the operating conditions of the pipeline," argued Paweł Zalewski in the Sejm.


13:16

Ziobro:

I learned of Andruszkiewicz's appointment from the media. There's no procedure to consult me on deputy minister candidates.
Mr. Andruszkiewicz, as far as I know, is not a suspect. A suspect is someone against whom charges have been brought. So, Mr. Andruszkiewicz does not have that status in this proceeding. However, to answer your question, I will say that I learned of Mr. Andruszkiewicz's appointment as deputy minister, just like you did, from the media, because there is no procedure requiring consultation with the Prosecutor General on these or other candidacies for deputy ministers. Perhaps such consultations take place from the perspective of the Prime Minister's Chancellery, but with heads of specific services or the police. However, as far as the prosecution is concerned, at least no such consultations exist, and none took place in this matter - stated Zbigniew Ziobro at a press conference in Kielce. He added:
"If you are asking about the investigation itself, it is an investigation that has its history. It was conducted for 1.5 years before I became the Prosecutor General. Based on the analysis carried out by the National Prosecutor's Office, those first 1.5 years of proceedings were sufficient time to thoroughly clarify the matter. In this case, there were certainly serious shortcomings related to the prolonged nature of the proceedings, which is why after a review and analysis of the case in October conducted by the National Prosecutor's Office, serious guidelines were issued, and due to their lack of implementation, the Deputy Prosecutor General Krzysztof Sierak filed a motion to initiate explanatory proceedings, disciplinary matters against those who committed these far-reaching omissions in this proceeding."
- This matter will be thoroughly analyzed from the perspective of the reasons for its prolonged nature. The proceedings already took place in 2014. I would like to remind you that I have been the Prosecutor General since March 2016 - emphasized the Prosecutor General.

Mucha on National Mourning: The President Met Widespread Expectations. Final Details Regarding the Scope of Mourning Are Underway
"We have a clear declaration from the President, who said he would announce mourning. We know that the funeral will most likely be on Saturday, and we also have statements from presidential ministers from yesterday and today, where they said that mourning exceeding one day is being considered. The President, by declaring national mourning, cooperates with the Prime Minister, with his countersignature. Final arrangements regarding the scope of mourning are underway. Once they are made, we will inform you immediately. The President has met widespread expectations" - said presidential minister Paweł Mucha in a conversation with Adrian Klarenbach on Polskie Radio 24. Mucha added that the President's decision would most likely be announced tomorrow.

Mucha:

Romaszewska Voiced an Opinion Inconsistent with the President's Stance on Honoring Mazowiecki with a Monument

"I share the view of President Andrzej Duda, who indicated that to commemorate Prime Minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki, an initiative to build a monument could be undertaken, and that he was not honored in such a way. The position of the Chancellery of the President is consistent, which is an obvious truth, with the President's stance" – said the presidential minister Paweł Mucha in an interview with Adrian Klarenbach on Polskie Radio 24.

"Ms. Zofia Romaszewska, who is an advisor to the President, is a person who, together with her husband, was involved in opposition activities and has her merits; she has the right to her personal opinion. Advisors advise the President, there can be different opinions, but the President is the decision-maker. Ms. Romaszewska articulated a view that is not consistent with the President's view" – he added.

Biedroń:

The Emergence of Wiosna is Reorganizing the Political Scene for the First Time, Giving Us a Real Chance to Remove PiS from Power. We Haven't Had Such a Chance in Three Years.

Today, I am interested in changing Polish reality, ending the Polish-Polish war, and putting an end to the rule of PiS, which is a great misfortune for our country. Today, the emergence of Wiosna is reorganizing the political scene for the first time, giving us a real chance to remove PiS from power. We haven't had this chance for three years” - said the leader of Wiosna, Robert Biedroń, in a conversation with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's „Kropka nad i”.


20:27

Biedroń:

Will We Cry About the Opposition Being So Weak? For Three Years, It Hasn't Proved to Poles That It Has the Energy and Strength to Be Believed

Will we cry about the opposition being so weak? For three years, the opposition has not proven to Polish women and men that it has the energy and strength to be believed. We have brought change, we have brought freshness, energy, European values, and modernity to Polish politics, and the polls show that there is great trust in us” – said Robert Biedroń, leader of Wiosna, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's program „Kropka nad i”.

Błaszczak on HIMARS contract: A breakthrough for the Polish Army's combat capabilities

- This is a breakthrough [HIMARS] when it comes to the combat capabilities of the Polish Army. This is because the Polish Army has not possessed such weaponry until now. These are mobile missile systems with a range of up to 300 km, meaning they can reach the enemy's rear in the event of a conflict. This is an extremely useful weapon, effective for deterrence. We are focused on deterring the enemy by proving that the Polish Army possesses such modern and effective weaponry. I am also very pleased that we are purchasing this weapon at a good price - stated Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Michał Adamczyk on TVP Info's "Gość Wiadomości".


20:30

Biedroń on Denouncing the Concordat: 'I am not the Pope's politician, but Poland's. I must look after the interests of the Republic of Poland, not the Vatican, which annually extracts billions of zlotys from the Polish budget.'

We need to sit down at the table with the episcopate, we need to sit down with the Holy See and start negotiations. I am not the Pope's politician. I am a politician of the Republic of Poland. I must look after the interests of the Republic of Poland, not the Vatican, which annually extracts several billion zlotys from the Polish budget because we finance religious education and there is the church fund” - said the leader of Wiosna, Robert Biedroń, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on "Kropka nad i" on TVN24.


20:41

Błaszczak:

PO-PSL Coalition Politicians Said Poland, the Budget, Cannot Afford Security for Poland and Poles

- Modernization is a process. Today we are focusing on the past. For years, for instance, money that was in the state budget was unfortunately not spent. During the rule of the PO-PSL coalition, we estimate that over PLN 10 billion was not spent over those 8 years from earmarked funds, because these are funds that are in the state budget every year. The PiS government has been spending money since the end of 2015. I am responsible for last year. We spent 2% of GDP. In addition to these large contracts, we also purchased mortars for the Polish Army produced in Tarnów, and drones produced in Bydgoszcz - stated Mariusz Błaszczak in a conversation with Michał Adamczyk on TVP Info's "Gość Wiadomości."

- Asked about the previously mentioned unspent money, the Minister of National Defence replied: - Exactly. It's as if this money just disappeared. The politicians then governing in the PO-PSL coalition said that Poland cannot afford it, that the budget cannot afford security, for ensuring security for Poland and Poles. The PiS government has ensured that, for example, budget revenues and the execution of the budget for 2018 are excellent. The Polish economy is developing, the deficit is the lowest in history, and the situation shows that one can govern well, that PiS governs well.


20:43

Biedroń:

Not only Kaczyński, who cowers from taking responsibility for the state, but also his "political puppets," including the government and president, have a problem with violating the constitution.

We cannot constantly wage a Polish-Polish war. We must judge those who need to be judged. We must bring to the State Tribunal those, including those steering the country from the back seat, whom PO and all previous governments did not have the courage to bring [before the ST]” – said the leader of Wiosna, Robert Biedroń, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".

Not only Jarosław Kaczyński has a problem with violating the constitution; he is afraid, he cowers from taking responsibility for the state, so he puts some – metaphorically speaking – political puppets in the front line: a whole series of politicians, including the government and the president. And he directs it all” – he added.


20:47

Biedroń:

Justice and Reconciliation Commission to be established by special act. If Kaczyński cannot be brought before the State Tribunal, he can be charged by the commission.

"We will have to look for a solution [on how to bring to account those who do not hold office before the State Tribunal]. The Justice and Reconciliation Commission will have to consist of outstanding legal experts. There is no need to break the constitution [to bring Kaczyński before the State Tribunal]. Everything indicates that Jarosław Kaczyński could also – for now, this is theory, we don't have the right instruments – face criminal charges. The Justice and Reconciliation Commission will be established by a special act" – said the leader of Wiosna, Robert Biedroń, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on "Kropka nad i" on TVN24.

Skórzyński on the Andruszkiewicz Affair and PiS Comments: The Prime Minister is Now Being Asked for Explanations Not Only by the Opposition, Events on the Pinior Trial and the Possible Revenge for Revealing CIA Prisons
-- LIVEBLOG 300POLITYKI:
Biedroń: The problem with breaking the constitution is not only with Kaczyński, who is a coward and shies away from taking responsibility for the state, but also – figuratively speaking – with the political puppets he fields, including the government and the president.
Biedroń, asked about denouncing the Concordat: I am not the Pope's politician, but a politician of the Republic of Poland. I am supposed to look after the interests of the Republic of Poland, not the Vatican, which extracts several billion zlotys from the Polish budget every year.
Błaszczak on the HIMARS system purchase agreement: This is a breakthrough in terms of the combat capabilities of the Polish Army.
Biedroń: Will we weep over the fact that the opposition is so weak? For three years, it has not proven to Polish women and men that it has the energy and strength to be believed.
Biedroń: The creation of Wiosna (Spring) is reorganizing the political scene for the first time in such a way that we have a real chance to remove PiS from power. We have not had such a chance for three years.
