- This is an element of cognitive warfare. The fact that we don't know whether we are dealing with a natural course of events or with inspiration from services, for example on social media, is an element of cognitive warfare (...) 100,000 fires on Polish territory alone annually, that's 300 fires a day. It's enough for two to be inspired on a sufficiently large scale by special services, and we will start looking around and suspecting every fire as a potential effect of action - stated Jacek Siewiera in the program "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" on TVN24.

- Due to a non-disclosure clause, I cannot share information, but I can say this: in my assessment, it was a very long situation and cooperation - stated Jacek Siewiera on TVN24's program "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".

- This is not a dull topic, because the financing of services, especially external ones, would be an appropriate method of response and prevention, but not internal ones, because those internal ones conduct checks. Running an agency leaves more traces on the other side than on ours - he added.

- It is too early to talk about the causes, investigations are ongoing, experts are involved, and this matter needs to be thoroughly analyzed. Indeed, we have what is at least the impression of a series, because the last few days have brought several large fires. We need to clarify if these phenomena are connected in any way, who is behind these fires, and what the causes are. Each of these cases also has its own history, of course, such as the fire at the landfill in Siemianowice Śląskie, where investigations are ongoing and arrests have been made. This concerns the broadly understood context of illegal waste dumps – stated Tomasz Siemoniak in the program "Sygnały Dnia" on PR1.

- We have several variants, and we definitely want to eliminate all unconstitutional aspects from the legislative solution that is currently in effect [the commission for investigating Russian influence]. This is the basis, in the sense that the scope and essence are the same – we want to investigate Russian influence, but it cannot be unconstitutional, it cannot be a prosecutor, a court, and an expert commission all at once. We have a solution ready, as we announced last week after the College of Special Services Affairs, and we want the Council of Ministers to deal with it on May 21st – said Tomasz Siemoniak on PR1.

- [The commission] will consist of experts, no political officials, and it will operate under the supervision of the Minister of Justice. We want to position it in such a way that there will be no talk of any administrative decisions; this was precisely the fatal merging of different orders in the previous solution, where this commission was called the lex Tusk commission, because the intention was very clear: it wasn't about some truth or revealing Russian influence, but about attacking Donald Tusk – he continued.

- We believe, and this is a conviction discussed among experts in the Prime Minister's Chancellery and within the services, that 2004, our accession to the EU, should be such a cut-off point – stated Tomasz Siemoniak on PR1.

In matters of security, both the Prime Minister and the President emphasize that this cooperation is good. We, both the government and the President, are aware that there is no need to build any divisions on these issues. I can remind you, it's been two months already, but two months ago the President expressed a positive opinion on the appointment of new, specific candidates, new heads of special services. Yesterday, the President referred in his speech to cooperation with me when I was still Minister of Defence in 2015. I take this as a positive sign.

- The Marshal's Guard informs that on April 29, 2022, Mr. Tomasz Szmydt was at the Sejm on the individual invitation of MP Gasiuk-Pihowicz. Ladies and gentlemen, this is not speculation; the Marshal's Guard responded yesterday, so today we have full clarity that this person functioned in public life, also thanks to his connections with representatives of Civic Coalition. Today we can say he was a good colleague of Civic Coalition, he was a good colleague of MP Gasiuk-Pihowicz – stated Waldemar Buda at a press conference in the Sejm.

- We hope that the commission [for investigating Russian influence] will act reliably and will not be an element of the Polish-Polish war, and that it will not act like the current investigative commissions, which, firstly, have explained nothing, and secondly, are winding down because their representatives are going to Brussels. So, we are in favour. However, I am not surprised that the disgust here at Donald Tusk's stance is obvious. First, he blocked the commission, he was against it, and now that he can choose its members himself, he is very eager. But regardless of whether it is in the commission's forum or outside of it, if this commission is unreliable, we will present these types of documents and calmly will reiterate this content, so we are certainly not afraid of it as PiS – said Waldemar Buda at a press conference in the Sejm.

- Our serious approach to security, our investment in the army, the fact that we are spending over 4% of GDP, that we are modernizing the Polish army, and how dynamically our economy is developing is appreciated here. This has been emphasized many times and it truly makes a huge impression. The dynamic development of Poland over the past few years is highlighted at every step - stated President Andrzej Duda at a press briefing in Doha.

- We are participating in an important economic event in this part of the world, the Middle East, which is attracting the attention of states in the region, but not only. Guests from all over the world are present, including from the Far East, for instance, the Prime Minister of Malaysia, with whom I spoke today (...) The topics discussed here align with our actions to implement security policy in our part of Europe - stated President Andrzej Duda at a press briefing in Doha.

- I discussed today with the Emir of Qatar, among other things, with whom we have very strong economic ties, as next year will mark 10 years since Qatar began supplying LNG gas to Poland, to our gas terminal in Świnoujście; we will celebrate a decade of deliveries. Qatar is currently our most significant partner for LNG gas supply, alongside American companies that also deliver this gas to Poland - he added.

- In the last dozen or so weeks, thanks to cooperation with allies, the Polish state has prevented and thwarted prepared attempts at such direct actions, including sabotage and arson. The matter is very serious, this state of heightened readiness is absolutely necessary due to the war and the increasing activity of services, as well as the situation on the Polish-Belarusian border - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference.

- First and foremost, I must reverse decisions that have significantly weakened, for example, the ABW. As you know, then-Prime Minister Szydło decided to liquidate 10 ABW branches in 10 voivodeships. I don't want to judge now, I won't engage in politics, what the reasons were. I know what the consequences were, and the ABW leadership has no doubt that this greatly weakened the capabilities of recognizing and counteracting such threats. We have therefore decided to reinstate the branches - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference.

- I have decided to allocate from my own reserve, meaning the Prime Minister's reserve, but we will also be looking for these funds so as not to increase the deficit, and we will allocate PLN 100 million to strengthen the ABW and AW - he continued.

- I want you to have clarity, which my partners in Europe already have, that Russian actions will intensify. And that this will require concentration from us, whether it's, well, we have thousands of security employees, workplaces, factories, critical infrastructure. Today, you too are, as it were, on the front lines of defending the homeland - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press briefing.

- The Migration Pact in the form in which it was adopted, I want to say very clearly, Poland, a minister representing my government, voted against the Migration Pact, and Poland's stance has been clear from the outset. The Migration Pact in its current form was negotiated during the Morawiecki government - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press briefing.

- Poland will be a beneficiary of the migration pact. We will not pay for anything, we will not have to accept any migrants from other directions, the EU will not impose any migrant quotas on us, while Poland will effectively enforce financial support from the EU in connection with becoming a host country for hundreds of thousands of migrants, mainly from Ukraine - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press briefing.

- I don't want any conflict at the top of power. No disputes over chairs, over airplanes, forget it. That is truly the last thing, and it is neither in Poland's interest nor my government's. I would like the president to help, if he can - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press briefing.

- The President is citing the competence act, and I have pointed out to the President that competences are more important than the act, which was prepared during the PiS era and which clearly attempts to circumvent the Constitution and, in a sense, change a fragment of the state's system - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference.

- I had hoped that after 5 months of our government, it would be more or less clear that decisions on who gets arrested are not made at government cabinet meetings. It really seems to me that I know a lot and I also have many patriotic and personal reasons to wish for swift decisions from the prosecution, and for some people to truly pay a high price, including freedom, for what they did. But as long as I am Prime Minister, I will not allow politicians or ministers to make decisions. I would very much like the prosecution to act faster. Don't be angry, but do you know what happened with this prosecution for 8 years? - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference.

- Do you really think that today we have thousands of prosecutors at our disposal, starting from the national level, who dreamed of nothing more than bringing their recent colleagues or patrons to criminal responsibility. Unfortunately, at the moment I have the tools that we inherited from our predecessors and we are in an unprecedented situation. We want the justice system, built over 8 years by Ziobro and Kaczyński, for this justice system, with the changes that were possible, but you know they were limited, the president defends this Ziobro-Kaczyński apparatus of coercion and political oppression as if it were independence, so I am not surprised, I am sometimes irritated, but I am not surprised that it is going slower than we would like, but it is progressing - he continued.

- [Migration] is a real problem, it is a real challenge. Simply stating that the migration pact is bad does not lead to any solution, not even the slightest solution to an increasingly pressing problem that will escalate for years to come – stated Michał Kobosko on the program 'Guest of the Events' on Polsat News.

- It is a terribly bad solution for the entire European Union and for Poland, and I will explain why. For the entire EU because it will fuel smuggling, dominated mainly by organized crime supplying, to put it crudely, these illegal migrants, primarily through the southern route across the Mediterranean. For Poland, because it means hundreds, I repeat, hundreds of thousands of migrants on our territory – said Adam Bielan in the program "Gość Wydarzeń" on Polsat News.

- It could have been blocked at the first summit, where Poland was represented by Prime Minister Donald Tusk. He was in a great hurry to be Poland's representative there, by the way. Let's recall, he was appointed on December 13th, and the European Council summit took place on December 14th and 15th, and at that time Prime Minister Tusk could have vetoed it. Unfortunately, he did not. On December 20th, this migration pact was adopted in the so-called trilogue, which includes the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union, and the European Commission, and from that moment on, the pact was unstoppable – he continued.
