It is precisely in Suwałki that we must primarily talk about the future, and that is the main task of the President of the Republic of Poland, to focus on what will be, not on what was. Unfortunately, it is so, all those who watched the presidential debate know that today the ruling party wants to concentrate mainly on what was, on those disputes we had a few years ago. Today, we no longer need to talk about 500+, because we all support maintaining the 500+ program. Today, we do not need to talk about retirement age, because we will not raise retirement age. I will say more, we will do one thing, namely, we will create incentives to be able to work longer, but only if someone wants to work longer. And there is no question of resolving these disputes differently. Therefore, there is no point in arguing about what was, what has long been settled. There is also no point in arguing about issues such as, for example, adopting the euro, because today it is not a problem for us. Today, we are not deciding whether we will adopt the euro or not. Today, we must focus on what is most important today and on what will be most important in the future, and this is how I differ from my opponents: I am primarily thinking about what will be. Today, the world has turned upside down with the epidemic, and today we must primarily defend jobs, focus on how difficult the situation is concerning the labor market, because unemployment is approaching a million people. These are truly serious numbers. Today, we must consider how to solve the problem of healthcare, we must talk about security. These are the real topics that concern Poles today, and therefore the president's task will not be to rehash those disputes that occupied us 5 years ago or a few years ago, but to look forward - stated Rafał Trzaskowski in Suwałki.
