- There are different dictatorships, some softer or more brutal. Now, this is a dictatorship that presents a slide away from democracy. The elections on October 15th were democratic, of course, but the external forces of some countries and institutions were also significant, which probably decided the change, but one can say that an electoral act took place - said Piotr Gliński on Polsat News's "Graffiti" program.

– Krzysztof Hetman has certainly announced his decision, and I think that in the case of this parliamentarian, it is fully justified and, I would say, deserved, because by relinquishing part of his EP term, he returned to the country. He won a mandate in a difficult constituency on the eastern border, so he helped and made victory over PiS more probable – stated Piotr Zgorzelski in an interview with Renata Grochal on the program "Bez uników" PR3.

– You, the editor, have a better grasp of the [list of] names than I do, although the names you mentioned are very probable, especially concerning Minister Sienkiewicz; as for Minister Budka, I don't know – he added.

– This is not an escape; it's a specific program for securing Poland's interests in the EU through strong representation. If we lose these elections, should we lose them, which, of course, will not happen, then one can say that this group of Eurosceptics will simply grow, and they will play for the dismantling of the EU – he continued.

- We won these local elections primarily because, together with the democratic parties' coalition groups, we will increase our holdings in terms of regional assemblies. This is realistic. As a coalition of democratic parties, 11 regional assemblies are possible, and perhaps even more. We are working on this because it is worthwhile to create a sort of transmission belt between the Marshal, who comes from the family of democratic parties, and the government, for the transmission of good news under the name of the KPO – said Piotr Zgorzelski on PR3.

- I am surprised by Prime Minister Tusk's surprise. Perhaps he hasn't been following President Duda's information and statements, but President Duda is consistent on Nuclear Sharing matters and has spoken about it many times. In 2022, this topic was raised much earlier, and I am also surprised by Prime Minister Tusk's surprise. I don't quite understand how Prime Minister Tusk and his associates would want to deny the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces the right to speak on matters of Polish security – stated Marcin Mastalerek in Fakt Live.

- On matters of Polish security, he should emulate and follow the path of President Duda and should say: America, America, America, not Deutschland, Deutschland, Deutschland, because Germany will not ensure Poland's security, and I would rather advise Prime Minister Tusk to follow President Duda's path - stated Marcin Mastalerek on Fakt Live.

- I do not participate in internal games. If I wanted to be malicious, I would tell Professor Gliński that without my work in 2015, he would never have been Deputy Prime Minister and Minister; he would have been a beneficiary after 2015, and if I wanted to be even more malicious, I would say that if Jarosław Kaczyński had fielded Piotr Gliński, as he stated in many interviews in 2014, there would have been no victory in 2015 - stated Marcin Mastalerek in Fakt Live.

The extraordinary parliamentary committee for considering bills on the right to terminate a pregnancy has adopted a motion to hold a public hearing on Thursday, May 16th, at 10:00 AM, concerning four draft laws on abortion. These include two projects authored by Lewica, as well as those from KO and Trzecia Droga.

- We are fully aware that these projects are highly anticipated by a vast majority of society, provoking exceptional interest, but also social emotions. We want the social side to participate in the law-making process […]. In accordance with the regulations, every organization, every female citizen, every male citizen will have the right to register. Information will be available on the parliamentary websites, and the process will be clear and transparent - said the committee chairwoman, Dorota Łoboda.

- PiS strongly supports Poland's participation in the Nuclear Sharing program. We believe that President Andrzej Duda has rightly raised this issue right now. Poland's participation in Nuclear Sharing will certainly strengthen our homeland's security, which is particularly important in today's times, when a war is being fought on our eastern border. Therefore, we must continue the process of arming the Polish Army, which PiS initiated when we were in power - said Mariusz Błaszczak at a press conference.

- This is the right time for Prime Minister Tusk to ask the NATO Secretary General for Poland's participation in this program. This matter should also be raised during a conversation with Mr. Sunak. As we know, three states of the North Atlantic Alliance possess nuclear weapons (...) and states that are part of the Nuclear Sharing program, which have the capability to deliver nuclear weapons owned by the United States - said Mariusz Błaszczak at a press conference.

- Discussions have been ongoing for many years; there's nothing new here. If the current government is raising this argument, it only shows that they are preparing Poland for a reset 2.0 with Russia. This matter has come up many times in various forums, in discussions with our American partners. Therefore, if those in power today approach this program with reservation, it reflects poorly on them. It indicates that they say one thing, speaking of the danger to Poland from Russia – which is true – but do another. They do not strengthen Poland's position but are influenced by theories, which their politicians have indeed voiced and are now returning to, that Poland's participation in Nuclear Sharing poses a threat to our country from Russia. This is an absurd theory. It's a theory that shows that those who espouse it are simply acting to Poland's detriment – stated Mariusz Błaszczak at a press conference.

- Lists are still being prepared, I think they will be ready by the end of this week – Mariusz Błaszczak said at a press conference.

- I implore you, these are monstrous insinuations based on lies. And this man started to insult and offend me, saying I was under the influence of alcohol at some meetings. These words have never been uttered before. This is simply unprecedented, it's a terrible scandal. This is not how witnesses should be treated. I am simply outraged, it is unserious and inappropriate - stated Mariusz Kamiński in a conversation with journalists in the Sejm.

- Your questions are insulting, insidious. I have answered this question [whether he intimidated politicians from Porozumienie or other parties or public officials]. Of course not - stated Mariusz Kamiński during the investigative committee hearing on envelope elections. Earlier, the former head of the Ministry of Interior and Administration filed a motion to exclude Dariusz Joński from the session, but it did not receive a majority.

– It is no coincidence that Great Britain, also thanks to the personal commitment of Prime Minister Sunak, and Poland represent a truly excellent example of good cooperation and coordinated action. As you can imagine, we discussed strengthening our cooperation within the formats in which both Great Britain and Poland already operate regarding defense. You also remember how much discussion and emotion our declaration to join the European Sky Shield Initiative generated. I am very pleased that we will cooperate more in this initiative than before, with our British friends and partners, just as we traditionally cooperate well and very intensively within the framework of the British Diamond initiative, which also serves our security – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk during a press statement.

– There is no doubt that from these various initiatives in which both our states are active, a coordinated security policy must immediately emerge, one that encompasses the entire continent and Great Britain. And we must end, and this is our shared intention, this period of certain competition and rivalry between different initiatives for the defense of Europe and Great Britain. Because what we need today, not only what we are doing very well – and I am referring here to British equipment and the readiness of Britons to engage directly in the defense of our skies – but we must also persuade all our partners to fully coordinate systems, equipment, and security policies – he continued.

- We are allies forever, I hope I said that well, exactly allies forever, and in Great Britain we will never forget that it was Polish pilots who saved our lives fighting in our skies. We are great military powers that are helping Ukraine; for two years we have been helping Poland's neighbors. Regarding our military aid, we want to help even more, which is why I spoke about additional aid of half a million pounds, so that we can further assist in financing the purchase of equipment – stated Rishi Sunak at a press briefing in Warsaw.

- We also discussed the capabilities of the defense industry together; we are building frigates and a new defense system that will defend the airspace over Poland. As I said, we will strengthen our cooperation in all formats so that we can work together on the most important aspects of air defense. We will also bring Typhoon jets here, which will patrol Polish airspace, support Poland, and we will contribute to this. We also want to send 16,000 soldiers as part of the UK's support, because we know that Poland is at the heart of ensuring the security of all of Europe – said Rishi Sunak at a press briefing in Warsaw.

- Indeed, when asked about the issue of utilizing and joining the Nuclear Sharing program, the President presented the stance of the Polish state, which has been in place over recent years in discussions about Nuclear Sharing, which has emerged several times in previous years. President Duda's stance concerns the state's readiness, should allies deem such a step appropriate and joining the program to be in line with the North Atlantic Alliance's deterrence policy – stated Jacek Siewiera in an interview with Monika Olejnik on the TVN24 program "Kropka nad i".

-If the offer from the project organizer concerns joint participation in a program utilizing the Arrow system, and if this offer is taken into account, involving defense industry products in the offer for our allies. Meaning, if we are beneficiaries of this project, not just payers, then it is definitely worth considering - stated Jacek Siewiera on TVN24's "Kropka nad i" program.
