Jaki:
Yesterday's 'Fakty' News Broadcast Omitted a Single Second of Information That Kaczyński's Actions Were Legal
- If you ask about the state, in my opinion, precisely because we can all function, and Biedronka can operate relatively normally, then the state, of which the death of the President of the Republic of Poland is an important part, can also function relatively normally. Whether you like him or not, whether you agree with him or not, on the 10th anniversary, it is good that a delegation was at the symbolic grave, as it is every year. Therefore, pretending that you do not know that these are official duties, which are exempt from this regulation, as was the case yesterday in the report on 'Fakty', I consider to be a continuation of the 'cross made of cans' policy, and there will be no consent for this. That is why in your report yesterday on 'Fakty', despite the immense hate directed at Jarosław Kaczyński, there was not a single second of information, not a single second of information that everything he did was done in accordance with the law. Why was there no information about the aforementioned regulation? - stated Patryk Jaki in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's 'Rozmowa Piaseckiego'.
08:07
- I remind you that this was part of state ceremonies and the performance of official duties, which are also excluded from this regulation. I am asking about this deliberately because if we are to start a witch hunt against someone, we should remember that Jarosław Kaczyński was not there as a private individual, but as part of a delegation that was part of state ceremonies. It was a very important event, meaning the 10th anniversary of the Smolensk catastrophe – stated Patryk Jaki in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Piasecki's Interview".

Jaki:
Everything was legal because the regulation exempts official duties from all restrictions
- I want to say once again that even in the announcements from your side, there was information that the people who officially organized these ceremonies approached the cemetery representatives so that flowers could be laid at the symbolic grave of the late President Lech Kaczyński and his wife, and you are making an incredible scandal out of it, despite being fully aware that everything that was done there was done in accordance with the law, because the regulation I mentioned exempts official duties from all these restrictions - stated Patryk Jaki in an interview with Konrad Piasecki on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".

Szumowski:
We will gradually reopen the economy from April 19
- We will gradually reopen the economy from April 19. I think this is good news, because when we look at the costs of this isolation, which is effective, and if it weren't for it, we would have tens of thousands of sick people today, and we have a few - said Łukasz Szumowski in an interview with Robert Mazurek on RMF FM's "Morning Interview".

"The President doesn't care about any of this and shows deep contempt for society. This is a man who has completely detached himself from reality in his behavior. He is somewhere else existentially than all of us. Of course, he should pay a 10,000 zloty fine like Poles do for riding a bicycle" - said presidential candidate Szymon Hołownia in an interview with Joanna Komołka on Radio Zet.
08:57
Sasin:
Expect Next Week to See Some Restrictions Lifted or Eased
- We will provide detailed information this week [regarding the lifting of some restrictions]. Currently, all the restrictions we've known for several weeks are still extended, as we extended them last week until the end of this week. These include restrictions on the closure of shops and large retail outlets, as well as those concerning sales in smaller shops, and primarily the closure of service establishments, such as hairdressers, which I know is a significant problem for many people. We genuinely want to gradually restore the functioning of these places, but we will inform about the specifics before the end of this week, as it always depends on the assessment of the epidemiological safety situation. The Minister of Health always has the final say here, and we will await recommendations from Minister Szumowski, and based on those recommendations, we will implement new solutions – stated Jacek Sasin in an interview with Krzysztof Ziemiec on TVP1's "Polityczny Kwadrans" (Political Quarter Hour).
- Indeed, all current restrictions are in effect until the end of this week, and one can expect that next week will be the period when at least some of these restrictions will either be eliminated or eased. However, as I said, it is difficult for me to speak about the specifics at the moment – continued the Deputy Prime Minister.

Kraska:
I believe the elections will take place; they can be conducted in a safe, postal voting manner
- May 10th, the presidential elections, are fast approaching, and this initiative, postal voting, I believe, is the most important and most fitting initiative to conduct these elections during this period, as it presents the lowest risk of contracting the coronavirus. Such elections are currently taking place in many countries. I believe that the recommendations we will receive from the Chief Sanitary Inspectorate, the technical matters, as packages will be sent by Poczta Polska. I think this is how it will be conducted to minimize our contact with the coronavirus. I believe this is the best method to conduct these elections - stated Waldemar Kraska in a conversation with Michał Rachoń on the TVP Info program "Jedziemy".
- I believe that this week the Minister of Health will present recommendations, based on what we obtain from the Chief Sanitary Inspectorate. A few days ago, the Minister of Health requested such a recommendation, so I think these coming days will be the most important for us to present these recommendations. Of course, based on the current epidemiological situation in the country. I believe that these elections will take place; they can be conducted in a safe, postal voting manner - continued the Deputy Minister of Health.

Morawiecki:
The World's Largest Cargo Plane Was Needed to Deliver More Medical Protection Supplies. I Thank President Duda for His Conversation with Xi Jinping, Which Helped Significantly
- The world's largest cargo plane was needed to deliver further batches of medical protection equipment, personal protective equipment, in order to best protect our medical staff and our medical services. Today, we are focusing on what is most essential, most needed for the next few days and the next few weeks. We are dealing with a situation of significant equipment shortages worldwide. Several countries were seeking such transport. The fact that the plane, the world's largest cargo plane, could fly to Poland, was preceded by long hours of negotiation, and earlier, long days of discussion. I also thank President Andrzej Duda for his conversation with Xi Jinping of China, which undoubtedly contributed greatly, helped a lot, because it unblocked communication channels - Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said at Okęcie.

Hołownia:
When will they start playing with open cards, instead of postponing everything to the holy never, because over everything there is one, holy deadline – May 10th
„When will Poland finally tell the truth to its citizens regarding the number of infections, the number of deaths? When will they start playing with open cards with us, and not postpone everything to the holy never, fumbling around like a horse uphill, emotionally blackmailing eighth-graders, high school graduates, and everyone else who has deadlines that should be postponed but cannot be, because over all of them there is one, holy deadline of May 10th, on which the ruling camp’s candidate must be confirmed for the next term in dishonest, illegal, non-universal, unequal elections” – said presidential candidate Szymon Hołownia at a press conference.

Gowin:
If the opposition doesn't agree to a constitutional amendment, a short period of natural disaster would be the optimal solution. The earliest possible election date is mid-August.
- If the opposition doesn't agree to a constitutional amendment, then in my opinion, the optimal solution would be to introduce a short period of natural disaster at the beginning of May, which would relieve us of the pressure of the May 10th deadline, and then to properly prepare for postal voting and hold this vote at the earliest possible date, and in any case, at a date that is safe for Poles. In my assessment, the earliest possible date is mid-August - stated Jarosław Gowin at a press briefing.

Kidawa-Błońska:
We live in a male-dominated world like President Duda, who wants to tighten the anti-abortion law. Government, deal with fighting the virus, not fighting women
„I have always been consistently, and remain, against tightening the anti-abortion law. Unfortunately, we live in a world dominated by men like President Duda, who wants to tighten this law and even wants to sign it, or by those who change their views or hide them. We do not agree to the tightening of this law. Government, deal with fighting the virus, not fighting women” - said Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska, candidate of Civic Coalition and Deputy Marshal, in an online recording.
19:40
- We will announce the details before the end of this week, but indeed, the intention is for this "freezing" of our lives, not just the economy, but life in general, as you mentioned the possibility of walks, going to the forest, to gradually ease, while of course observing safety principles, because that is the purpose of the mandate that will be in effect from Thursday, covering the mouth in public places - said Jacek Sasin in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Gość Wydarzeń" on Polsat News.
19:44
Sasin:
The Air Bridge with China Will Continue
- Transportations will be repeated in the coming days. Not using this super transporter that arrived in Warsaw today anymore, because it was for incidental use and thanks to this one flight, we were able to replace approximately 10 charter flights of LOT airplanes. That's how the volume of material that arrived in Warsaw is shaped. Using LOT airplanes, passenger planes that serve as cargo planes, this air bridge with China will be continued - said Jacek Sasin in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Gość Wydarzeń" Polsat News.
19:48
Sasin:
Based on current regulations of the so-called first shield, which introduced the possibility of postal voting, we are able to effectively prepare for the elections.
- Today, based on the current regulations, which were adopted by the Sejm in the form of an anti-crisis law, the so-called first shield, which introduced the possibility of postal voting precisely for seniors and for individuals in quarantine, we are able to effectively prepare for these postal elections, on a broader scale as well – said Jacek Sasin in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program „Gość Wydarzeń” (Guest of Events) on Polsat News.
19:55
- 'Such arguments can always be formulated for any electoral process' - said Jacek Sasin in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program 'Gość Wydarzeń' (Guest of Events) on Polsat News.
- 'Why did you have reservations about such voting three years ago, and today you no longer do?'
- 'Because today we have an extraordinary situation, Mr. Editor, and in a normal situation, when there wasn't an epidemic, it would be possible to vote in person at polling stations. Such a voting process is certainly a better process, and we would prefer such a process.'

Kamiński:
Gowin's Signals Should Be Taken Seriously, but Fair Process Essential for Extending President's Term; Opposition Lacks Trust Due to Government's Past Actions
- Prime Minister Gowin, who currently effectively commands two seats in the Sejm, as these are individuals who vote as he directs, a man who commands two seats in the Sejm, proposes a revolutionary change to the Polish Constitution. Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz stated that this is something that can be discussed. It can certainly be discussed how elections could take place in a year, but at the same time, Mr. Gowin says he would prefer elections a bit later, but also by mail. Yet, the essence of the unconstitutionality of the PiS proposal is also that in the form in which PiS wants to conduct postal elections, they cannot be constitutional. I am not saying we shouldn't talk to Mr. Gowin, quite the opposite. Any signals from him, from which he would like to extend a hand to the opposition and show that something can be improved, should be taken seriously. It seems to me, however, that for us to discuss something like extending the president's term, for which a large part of Poles lack trust, both political and moral, it would be necessary to guarantee that this process would be conducted fairly. With this Speaker of the Sejm, with this arrangement, where every time the opposition tried to agree on something with the government, when it opened a door to something, it was deceived, amendments were thrown in at the last minute. It turned out that the laws served not what they theoretically were supposed to serve, etc., etc. The fact that we have very limited trust in the other side is a result of them working hard for five years to build this lack of trust - stated Michał Kamiński in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on Polsat News program "Wydarzenia i opinie".
20:18
Kamiński:
If Elections Were Held Under Current Conditions, I Wouldn't Participate; I'd Call for a Boycott
- I would like all opposition politicians to take a clear stance on this matter, the same stance. Currently, there isn't one. But sometimes there hasn't been a clear stance, and in this case, there isn't a clear stance from the ruling camp, - stated Michał Kamiński in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program “Wydarzenia i opinie” (Events and Opinions) on Polsat News.
- If elections were to be held under the rules as they appear today, as PiS would want to conduct them, then please don't ask me as a politician. I, Michał Kamiński, will not participate because that's not what I'm in politics for. For me, these would be fictitious elections, and I would urge people, if they were to be held in such a manner, not to participate, but this is my private opinion - continued the Deputy Marshal of the Senate.

„It didn't just shock me. It shocked masses of compatriots. It shocked most of all those who couldn't take part in the funerals of their loved ones, because only 5 people were allowed, those who had been visiting the cemetery daily for many years. I think many were incredibly hurt that the authorities, who issue orders and restrictions, themselves completely disregard these restrictions” – said the candidate of the Polish Coalition for president, the leader of PSL, Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, in a conversation with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's 'Kropka nad i'.
„It was sad and inhumane for those who have their loved ones, wanted to participate in events, funeral ceremonies, and couldn't” – he added.
20:20
Kosiniak-Kamysz:
Recent Events Show a Government That Once Heard the Public Has Gone Completely Deaf
„The government has detached itself from reality. This event from Friday, and also today's, when we have a ceremony welcoming masks at the airport. These masks need to be distributed, not ceremonially welcomed. They should have been secured earlier, not sold off by ARM. This is the government's responsibility. The events of recent days show how a government that once was known for listening to the public has become completely deaf” – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, the Polish Coalition's presidential candidate and leader of PSL, in a conversation with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's "Kropka nad i" (A Point Over the 'i').
20:24
Kosiniak-Kamysz:
Gowin is certainly seeking a solution that will allow the elections to be postponed and held at a safe time. It is caring for the common good not to organize elections on May 10th.
20:30
Kosiniak-Kamysz:
I Won't Concede This Duel by Walkover. I Don't Believe a Theatrical Boycott is the Right Path. A Real Boycott Means Resigning from Elections, and I Don't Hear That
„The fact that someone is taking campaign actions, I'm not here to advise Madam Marshal [Kidawa-Błońska]… I will not concede this duel by walkover, because I believe that giving up at this stage creates comfortable conditions for Andrzej Duda to be able to run in the elections and win them calmly. It's unknown what will happen in a week or two, or whether a state of natural disaster won't be introduced on May 8th. I don't believe that a theatrical boycott is the right path; a real boycott means resigning from the elections, and I don't hear about that” – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, the candidate of the Polish Coalition for president and the leader of PSL, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".
20:34
„Today is not the time for wars or worldview debates. This bill will trigger a far-reaching dispute. I am in favour of maintaining the compromise that has been in place for years. Today, to be honest, adopting this type of legislation, this bill had to be put on the agenda, it could have been put on the agenda earlier. There is freedom of worldview voting in the club, but I am in favour of not continuing discussions on this matter, not pursuing further work” – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, the Polish Coalition's presidential candidate and leader of the PSL, in an interview with Monika Olejnik on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".
