Tomczyk:

Minister Brudziński, the provision regarding the journalism profession, essentially imposing a muzzle on free media, should be withdrawn from PiS's agenda as soon as possible.

- The profession of a journalist in Poland was indeed regulated. It was regulated in the Polish People's Republic. In many places around the world, the profession of a journalist is regulated. For example, in Belarus. I don't know if we want to adopt either of these models here in our country. I will only remind you that the constitution clearly states in Article 14 that the Republic of Poland ensures freedom of the press and other means of social communication. Today, PiS is de facto moving towards Belarus. Towards the East, towards standards that should never apply in Poland – said Cezary Tomczyk in the Sejm.

- This is a simple step towards Belarus, it is a simple step towards the kind of parody dictatorship that Kaczyński is offering us. Today we are appealing to Joachim Brudziński with such an appeal, or rather a call to action. Minister Brudziński, this provision concerning the journalism profession, which de facto means imposing a muzzle on free media, should be forgotten and withdrawn from PiS's agenda as soon as possible – added the MP.
