- Today is an important meeting of the Prime Minister with the protesters. I hope that after this meeting, some roadmap for solving this problem will be drawn up - stated Marcin Kierwiński on TOK FM.

- A very good poll for the opposition candidates, a very good poll for Rafał Trzaskowski. In this very strong field, Rafał Trzaskowski is clearly the most serious candidate to become the President of Poland in 1.5 years - stated Marcin Kierwiński on TOK FM.

- I know that Rafał Trzaskowski is today KO's natural candidate for president, but he is also the candidate, as all polls show, who has the greatest chance of winning. This should also give many opposition politicians something to think about - he continued.

- We have our finances under control. We are seeing significant interest from foreign investors, and we are also seeing considerable interest at auctions of Polish treasury bonds. On the investor side, we have no problems issuing debt, which, as the Minister of Finance, I am very pleased about - stated Andrzej Domański on the program "Gość poranka" on TVP Info.

- [Resolutions concerning the Constitutional Tribunal will see the light of day] quickly, but it will be Minister Bodnar's decision. Please remember that there is a lot, a lot of tidying up to do in the judiciary. Some processes must follow one after another. Today, we happen to have a situation where Minister Bodnar is cleaning up the situation in the prosecution service, and indeed, the dynamics of these changes are very, very significant. The last bastion of PiS soldiers is crumbling, and justice is finally starting to return there - stated Marcin Kierwiński on TOK FM.

- In 2024, we will be working on solutions concerning the tax-free allowance. We want to implement these solutions the following year. Starting from 2024, we will work on these solutions, and they will come into effect from 2025, but of course, further discussions with coalition partners are still required here. We are still in the planning stage of this major reform. We are not backing down from this promise - stated Andrzej Domański in the program "Gość poranka" on TVP Info.

- We are still talking with Prime Minister Donald Tusk. A decision will be made next week. On the one hand, we see that prices on global markets continue to fall, while on the other hand, I know that for many households, food prices still represent a significant portion of their basket of purchased goods - stated Andrzej Domański on TVP Info's "Morning Guest" program.

- I can confirm that credit holidays will appear on the agenda of the next Council of Ministers, and it will be a more favorable option for borrowers. It won't be credit holidays for everyone, but it will be a more favorable option than the one we discussed at the previous Council of Ministers – stated Andrzej Domański on the program „Gość poranka” on TVP Info.

- The EU will have to reform the Green Deal for several reasons. Firstly, the goals set were too ambitious, and secondly, it also threatens the rise in popularity of far-right parties, and this is not just a problem for France, it's a problem for Germany, it's a problem for all of Europe. And the protests are, as it were, a visible form of non-acceptance of these, let me say, targets. Certainly, the deadlines that seem too optimistic, unrealistic, all deadlines for the implementation of individual postulates, such as for example, the year '30, some criteria, for example, for the reduction of pesticides to be used in agriculture, etc., need to be postponed. It's clear that these goals were too ambitious and, therefore, a greater reform is necessary – stated Ryszard Petru on RMF FM.

- I am in favor of returning to the health contribution that existed before the Polish Deal, in line with our program and the declarations we made during the election campaign. I know it's costly, but if we want economic growth, if we want state budget revenues, we must alleviate the burden on entrepreneurs – said Ryszard Petru on RMF FM.

- I know that on the side of Civic Coalition (KO) there is a similar way of thinking, we have a problem with the Left, I will say it directly. Such a project should come from the Ministry of Family, and it's high time it happened. The issue of abortion is important and I would also like to discuss it, but let's not forget that the economy must keep moving, and we have two options: either full liberalization [of Sunday trading], or the proposal from Poland 2050 and the Third Way (TD), which suggests every other Sunday, we are looking for compromises, it's important that it is implemented – stated Ryszard Petru on RMF FM.

- I don't want to put everything on the line, as it were. I hope that we will reach an agreement within the coalition and find some compromise that will allow us to avoid proceeding with parliamentary bills – he added.

- I don't want to speak on behalf of the Polish People's Party (PSL), but I remember that as Polska2050, we proposed holidays [from ZUS payments], not voluntary ZUS. [ZUS shouldn't be voluntary] because each of us would gladly not pay ZUS, and then ZUS would have fewer revenues, consequently there would be nothing to pay pensions with, and thirdly – we would condemn ourselves to poverty pensions – said Ryszard Petru on RMF FM.

- I will vote for full [abortion] liberalization, and currently, the closest project is the one from PO. And in connection with the probability that none of these projects will gain a majority, I am in favor of voting for a referendum, because the current legal state cannot persist – stated Ryszard Petru on RMF FM.

- We've submitted the first applications for refinancing from cohesion funds. Finally! Because this is already the fourth year of the current financial perspective. That's over PLN 2.9 billion. PLN 1.668 billion for national programs, PLN 1.271 billion for regional programs. The money will arrive in Poland within a dozen or so days – wrote Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on Twitter.

- We discussed, among other things, the situation in Moldova, the worrying signals from Transnistria, and Polish-Latvian cooperation in areas I've spoken about in recent weeks with leaders across the entire northeastern region. This concerns military security, including the positive consequences of Sweden and Finland joining NATO for the region, it concerns our energy security, where we also have several projects to complete together with Latvia, including synchronization of electricity grids. Broader security also includes better transport connections, and therefore we also spent quite some time discussing a railway connection - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the Latvian Prime Minister.

- I find no points where we have any differences of opinion today with the Prime Minister and with Latvia. We have precisely the same problems and very similar ideas on how to solve them - he continued.

- We also talked about the situation of farmers and food producers, both in Latvia and in Poland, and here too we have similar problems. What is important, and I will discuss this with Polish farmers today, is the opinion of our guest today, the Prime Minister, on the export of Russian food and agricultural products to the EU, including to our countries. Latvia has decided on an embargo concerning Russian products, this was the decision of the Latvian parliament. I want to say that we will diligently study this Latvian decision, and I do not rule out that Poland will also take a relevant initiative here - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the Prime Minister of Latvia.

- During our conversation, Russia was listening to President Putin and his speech. There is no doubt that Putin's words, stating that Russia is arming itself and has de facto shifted to a war footing, and that its entire economy has been repurposed for war, are true. These words, along with the aggressive rhetoric and the decisions announced by President Putin regarding increasing Russia's self-sufficiency, shifting its economy to a war economy, and modernizing its armed forces, must all be taken with deadly seriousness -
stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the Prime Minister of Latvia.

- And once again, I can reiterate what I have been saying and discussing with our partners in recent weeks in Warsaw: Europe must understand that the new arms race Russia is imposing on the world and the Russian aggression in Ukraine must lead to an awakening in all European capitals and the EU as a whole. The European part of NATO must finally make decisions that will balance Russia's military potential and ensure that Europe is not only as well-armed and prepared for bad scenarios as Russia, but better so. This is becoming an absolute necessity of the moment - he continued.

- Today, all intergovernmental consultations and those conducted by the Department of Copyright and Film at the Ministry of Culture have concluded. We are implementing the law concerning the use of royalties on the internet and are incorporating into this act, for audio-visual creators and performers, as well as performers of musical works, the right to collect royalties resulting from the playback of works online - stated Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz at a press conference.

- I am convinced that these elections will give us all a really big boost of energy. All of us who are struggling today to solve the most important problems. This is because the October 15th Coalition, I am convinced, will win these elections. Of course, the most important for us is KO (Civic Coalition), we are its members, we support our candidates. We have incredibly strong lists for the regional assemblies, for the city council, and for all Warsaw districts, and I am convinced that this energy will also carry us to victory in Mazovia, that it will carry us to victory throughout Poland, where candidates from KO, as well as other parties associated with today's governing coalition, will be winning. We have a chance to win in the vast majority, if not all regions, which will allow us to take care of rebuilding and strengthening local self-government, which was destroyed by the PiS government – stated Rafał Trzaskowski at a press conference in Warsaw.

- Dear citizens, these funds, which will be unlocked thanks to the fact that the rule of law is finally returning to Poland, represent an absolutely incredible sum. Because it's almost 600 billion zlotys […] These funds will serve to accelerate Poland's development, to accelerate Warsaw's development – said Rafał Trzaskowski at a press conference in Warsaw.

- As for Warsaw within the Cohesion Fund itself, I managed to negotiate 2 billion zlotys, and that's exactly how it was, because these funds were not in the [Cohesion Fund] budget. Only after talks with Commissioner Ferreira and with Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, we managed to persuade the Commission to allocate one billion zlotys for the metro and 800 million for the replacement of rolling stock. However, we expect significantly more funds from the KPO, and that the European Commission will be open to discussions to make this program more flexible – he continued.

- I hope that within two to three weeks at the latest, the new law [regulations on internet royalties] will go to parliament. We want to achieve a situation in the end where the government, the parliamentary majority, and creators will stand shoulder to shoulder behind this new law. Then, a fundamental discussion will take place on who is for and who is against it. Then, in the Sejm, which is the venue for this type of debate, corporations and other stakeholders will be able to step forward - stated Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz at a press conference.

- We have good news for all of us. This is the dotting of the i. We have just received formal approval from the Commission, both formal acceptance of the first KPO application and formal acceptance of the condition related to the Charter of Fundamental Rights. Thus, 600 billion PLN for investments, 15,000 PLN for every inhabitant of Poland – stated Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz at a press briefing.

- A great day – that's what Ambassador [Brzezinski] just told me, a great day for Poland, for the USA, for NATO, for our security. Here and now, we are signing an agreement in Phase II of the Wisła program for an integrated air and missile defense command system. The Polish army, its air and missile defense systems, are gaining what is most valuable, what is most valuable to us, in the life of every person, namely the brain, that which provides us with reconnaissance capabilities. The Polish army, thanks to our lasting, strong alliance with the USA, is gaining an operational brain for its air and missile defense system. This is a big deal – stated Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.

The agricultural summit, a meeting between government representatives and representatives of protesting farmers, has begun at the "Dialog" Social Partnership Centre in Warsaw. Prime Minister Donald Tusk and the leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture, Czesław Siekierski, Stefan Krajewski, and Michał Kołodziejczak, are participating in the meeting.

- I cannot shake the feeling that today's Obajtek affair is just the tip of the iceberg... - wrote Marcin Kierwiński on Twitter.

NIe mogę oprzeć się wrażeniu, że opisana dziś afera Obajtka jest tylko wierzchołkiem góry lodowej...

— Marcin Kierwiński (@MKierwinski) February 29, 2024

- The Latvians made this decision to impose an embargo on Russian and Belarusian products, so tomorrow I will speak with coalition leaders and the Marshal of the Sejm and I will convince them to adopt a Sejm resolution that clearly indicates the need to implement this type of decision - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference.

- We see the Prime Minister's great determination to resolve the issues arising on the Poland-Ukraine axis, particularly those affecting farmers, as quickly as possible, to shift this debate to the European level. Protecting the Polish market is truly a priority for us, but it's also good for the protection of the European farmer to be a priority, as we are a significant player in the market - stated Barbara Nowacka on the TVP Info program "Gość 19:30".

- I am terribly sad that men are once again arguing about women's rights instead of helping women solve the problem. Poles went to the polls, among other reasons, because they wanted to feel safe. Once again, before the elections, they see a squabble about their cause, instead of getting the matter resolved. These issues have been addressed many times and are also handled by non-governmental organizations, because we are, in fact, delegates of these organizations to implement laws that we know are important – stated Barbara Nowacka on the program "Gość 19:30" on TVP Info.

- I would like the monthly household energy bill not to increase by more than PLN 30 [...] We are working on solutions and, first and foremost, what we agreed on today at a morning meeting, which was very good and very constructive, is that there is room for further price reductions. Because we have very good conditions on the market, which is stabilizing – stated Paulina Hennig-Kloska in the program "Gość Wydarzeń" on Polsat News.

- We are moving in this direction, to simultaneously, on the one hand, continue to support people with lower incomes. This is quite a large group of households for whom such assistance from the budget will remain. On the other hand, we want to achieve lower energy prices [...] Even 4.5 million households may be covered by additional assistance – she continued.
