Donald Tusk commented on the events in Białystok with the slogan "Enough violence." The leader of Civic Platform, responding to the latest events, stated: "Kibole, antisemites, homophobia - nothing new. The tragedy is the power that patronizes them. All decent Poles, regardless of their views, must say: enough violence."

The leader of the opposition referred to the events that took place in Białystok on Saturday, July 20, where the “Parade of Differences” was held. The march was accompanied by aggression and insults directed at participants by a crowd of people, among whom there were individuals associated with hooligan circles and organizations with nationalist and homophobic slogans.

The politician also referred to the statement by Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, who in response to the events in Białystok, wrote on Twitter: "I condemn violence and aggression. Everyone has the right to express their views peacefully. Poland is a tolerant country."

The Prime Minister also stated that the president of Poland, Andrzej Duda, also condemned the events.
