Schetyna:

I Don't Understand the WKK's Decision to Leave the Coalition. I Believed, and Said So Very Clearly – We Need to Strengthen, We Need to Expand the United Opposition

That's a good question, but President Kosiniak-Kamysz is the one to address. He made the decision to leave the coalition. I can say this: I don't understand this decision because I believed, and said so very clearly – we need to strengthen, we need to expand the united opposition. This formula needs a chance. PSL did not give it a chance, in any scenario. Including the Platforma-PSL coalition scenario – stated Grzegorz Schetyna in an interview with Justyna Dobrosz-Oracz for Wyborcza.pl. Asked about PSL's claims that he was the one who removed the "conservative anchor," making it insurmountable, the PO chairman replied: – You know, I don't want to be malicious. To recall who they said shouldn't be in this coalition. Wiosna wasn't supposed to be there, SLD wasn't supposed to be there. Then other names appeared. Either you respect your partner and talk to them as one should in politics, and as we talked about creating the European Coalition. Firmly, for many, many days, but with a good outcome. PSL is leaving the Coalition, and a new beginning is needed. And I presented this new beginning today after the national board meeting.
