- This verdict has today become the reason or pretext for violent public demonstrations, which are taking place in a particular situation. We are in a severe stage of the COVID epidemic. We are in a state where all sorts of gatherings of more than 5 people are prohibited. We are in a state where these demonstrations will certainly cost many lives. Those who call for them, as well as those who participate, are bringing about a general danger, and therefore are committing a crime, a serious crime. The authorities have not only the right, but also the duty to oppose such events - stated Jarosław Kaczyński in a recording published on social media.
