This week in politics promises to be significant, potentially marking the final Sejm session and one of the last Senate sessions of this term. Furthermore, as announced by Jarosław Kaczyński, the upper house will establish a so-called verification committee.

The coming days will also see the continuation of the election campaign – Donald Tusk will appear in Gdańsk, and prior to that, he will participate in a debate with Rafał Trzaskowski as part of Campus Polska Przyszłości. The Left (Lewica) will present all their leading candidates, and the weekend will feature an electoral convention.

Senate and Sejm Sessions. A two-day Senate session will commence on Tuesday.
