- The arrest of soldiers firing warning shots towards attacking migrants is unacceptable. The actions of the Military Police towards the arrested will be thoroughly investigated. Soldiers guarding the state's security must be certain that legal procedures protect them. I will always stand by the honor of Polish soldiers - wrote Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz on Twitter.

Zatrzymanie żołnierzy oddających strzały alarmowe w kierunku atakujących migrantów jest nie do przyjęcia. Działania Żandarmerii Wojskowej wobec zatrzymanych zostaną bezwzględnie wyjaśnione. Żołnierze stojący na straży bezpieczeństwa państwa muszą być pewni, że procedury prawne…

— Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz (@KosiniakKamysz) June 5, 2024

- This is not within my purview, so it is a surprise to me as a matter of course, but this matter certainly must be clarified. Soldiers must feel safe while performing their duties. Firing warning shots is not, at first glance, any overstepping of authority to apply such measures. The matter must be absolutely clarified; Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz already wrote about this on Twitter last night. I also wouldn't rule out provocation here. Some internal one, perhaps someone from the prosecution still linked to Zbigniew Ziobro is exaggerating something somewhere. This needs to be clarified - stated Adam Szłapka in the TVN24 program "Rozmowa Piaseckiego".

- What a deceitful bunch they are. When polls showed it would be beneficial to be seen against the backdrop of the border, uniformed officers, and soldiers, they staged photo ops in front of cameras. At the same time, 'Bodnar's men' handcuffed Polish soldiers leaving barracks. What awaits Poland and Poles if this clique lets thousands of 'engineers' with machetes into our country on December 13th? - wrote Joachim Brudziński on Twitter.

Ależ to jest zakłamana banda?‍♂️Jak im wyszło z sondaży, że należy pokazać się na tle granicy, mundurów funkcjonariuszy i żołnierzy to robili ustawki przed kamerami. W tym samym czasie „bodnarowcy” w kajdankach wyprowadzali z koszar polskich żołnierzy. Co czeka Polskę i Polaków jak…

- Primarily, I do not know the details, but from what the media are reporting, this situation seems unacceptable. These actions against soldiers are scandalous, but I say this more as a politician than a lawyer. I am aware that the prosecutor was guided by certain premises. I am pleased with Prime Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz's statement that this matter will be clarified immediately, because today the most important thing is that Polish soldiers have the feeling that when it comes to their safety, they can do everything in accordance with procedures to defend their health and life. They are at the border precisely to defend Poles from bandits and at the same time to be sure that no one will prosecute them if they act in accordance with the law - stated Borys Budka in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News' "Graffiti".

- I hope that any charges from the prosecutor's office and the Military Gendarmerie will be made public as soon as possible, but here I am absolutely on the side of those who say that Polish soldiers should not be treated like this. It was scandalous by the Gendarmerie - he continued.

- If [this situation] took place in the circumstances that journalists are writing about, it is unacceptable, scandalous, and heads should roll in the Military Gendarmerie if it was exactly as [Onet] describes, if there isn't some hidden second meaning - he added.

Wczoraj aresztowali posłów za walkę z korupcją!
Dziś aresztują żołnierzyza obronę granicy!
Jutro aresztują Ciebie za bycie Patriotą!

To zła władza!

Odebrałam meldunek Ministra Obrony Narodowej. Postępowanie Prokuratury i Żandarmerii Wojskowej wobec naszych żołnierzy budzi uzasadniony niepokój i gniew ludzi. Oczekuję szybkich wniosków i decyzji organizacyjnych, prawnych oraz personalnych.

At a press conference held by Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, Jacek Ozdoba appeared, claiming to be present under the auspices of a parliamentary intervention. The head of the Ministry of National Defence (MON) allowed him to ask a question.

- I wanted to ask you, aren't you ashamed in a situation where a full-blown hybrid war is raging beyond our eastern border, our soldiers' lives and health are at risk, and you're not standing up to defend the Polish uniform? You are inconsistent, because I expected you to come out and say that you had spoken with the minister, the Prosecutor General, regarding the order from the regional prosecutor in Lublin, who appointed an investigative team whose goal will be to gather [...] evidence concerning the conduct of officers towards foreigners who have crossed the Polish-Belarusian border - said Jacek Ozdoba.

- Do you realize that today, the use of direct coercion measures, the protection of officers' own lives will be burdened by the fact that you are not standing behind them? [...] You have no shame, because just recently you spat on the Polish uniform, along with Donald Tusk, you allowed Polish soldiers to be insulted, and the film "Green Border" was even included in the campaign scenario, and you didn't react when celebrities, your politicians, at the border, played into the scenario of the Russian Federation - he continued.

Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz provided a response.

- You see the difference, I allow everyone to speak, even those who sometimes speak untruths [...]. Did you build a barrier that is impassable, because that's what you said? No, we have to strengthen it today. Did you change the regulations regarding the use of weapons? No, we have to do that now. Did you provide legal aid for soldiers if they are in a situation where investigations are being conducted against them? No, you didn't do that for 8 years. Why didn't you implement these changes, why don't you also have the honor now to beat your own chest? - replied the head of MON.

- I invite cooperation on this matter, because the security of the Polish state should not have party colours. Because it is above that, and I voted for fortifications on the border when I was in opposition and did not criticize such actions. You behave differently [...]. The Minister of Justice, the Prosecutor General, participates in every security committee, and these issues have been and will be considered in this committee, and work on these issues is ongoing. The head of the National Security Bureau also participates in these works, as he is also present at every security committee meeting - he continued.

- Given what has been happening in relation to this recently and in recent months, I have decided to convene the National Security Council. I don't want to do this now, during the campaign period, because there are a lot of emotions and the situation is truly very heated, but on Monday we will already be after the elections, and I would like the RBN to be convened in the afternoon, most likely at 4:00 PM - stated President Andrzej Duda at a press briefing in France.

- This is a very shocking matter, especially considering that our soldiers have been attacked several times recently right there at the border by assailants from the Belarusian side. What is also shocking is the way the Polish soldiers were detained, effectively arrested, because from what we know today, the soldiers were detained by the Military Gendarmerie, handcuffed, it was a very harsh detention. This is shocking because these soldiers are today defenders of the Republic of Poland's borders, they often serve in very difficult and incredibly exhausting conditions. This additional treatment of the soldiers who defend the borders, who perform a very difficult service in difficult conditions, is very shocking and it is a matter that must be explained - stated President Andrzej Duda at a press briefing in France.

- Why such far-reaching coercive measures were used against the soldiers is a shocking issue and it must be explained, and if the use of such coercive measures was unjustified in this case, absolutely decisive consequences must be drawn - the president continued.

- What is enormously shocking to me – this situation, the shots at the border took place two months ago. From what I have learned, in March. Why was there no information about this, why was I, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, nor the National Security Bureau, informed about it? Was there an attempt to conceal this situation, was it an attempt to sweep this situation under the rug, while at the same time treating Polish soldiers in this manner, it is indeed enormously shocking - he added.

- I don't know what the reason for concealing this was. I don't know if it was the election campaign that is currently underway. Or if any other reasons existed for the authorities to conceal this fact, not to inform either the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces or the public about it - emphasized PAD.

- This is the essence of what is happening, of this unprecedented scandal that is taking place today. There is no prime minister, there is no government. We have some unbelievable confusion regarding the decisions being made, but this confusion, in my opinion, is not accidental. It is simply an attempt to get out of this situation, where on the one hand there are commitments to the West, which also practically means to the East, meaning towards Germany, but that also means at least to some extent towards Russia, and on the other hand, we cannot, at this moment, open this border, we cannot allow an invasion, because that would end badly for this government. The curtain has been torn, and now we see how it truly is - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a PiS press briefing.

- Regarding the CEO [Daniel Obajtek], if I were in his place, I wouldn't appear [before the investigative committee regarding the visa scandal], because, to put it very colloquially, what's pie got to do with the windmill? What does the CEO have to do with these matters? This was about some supposedly gigantic scandals. It was a gigantic operation aimed at deceiving society, which brought results - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a PiS press briefing.

- It has begun. The Podlaski Voivodeship Office is sending letters to local government officials ordering them to find locations for illegal migrant centers! Let's stop these dangerous pests this coming Sunday! - wrote Jacek Sasin on Twitter.

Zaczęło się. Podlaski Urząd Wojewódzki rozsyła pisma do samorządowców z poleceniem szukania miejsc na ośrodki dla nielegalnych migrantów! Zatrzymajmy tych niebezpiecznych szkodników w najbliższą niedzielę!

— Jacek Sasin (@SasinJacek) June 6, 2024

- Yes [I will appear tomorrow for questioning before the investigative committee on the visa scandal] - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a PiS press briefing.

Młody żołnierz, Mateusz, oddał życie w obronie granicy Rzeczpospolitej. Ojczyzna i rodacy nie zapomną o tej ofierze. Jego bliskim składam wyrazy najgłębszego współczucia.

- Unfortunately, we expect inflation to rise in the near future, i.e., in the second half of the year. We know that laws have been passed regarding the partial abandonment of anti-inflation shields concerning energy, heat, and gas. The partial dismantling of this shield will, of course, cause an increase - stated Adam Glapiński at a press conference.

- If these legislative decisions complete their legislative process, we can expect that by the end of the year, it will gradually deviate, it will be deviating from the inflation target and by the end of the year, it will be over 5% - he added.

- The Council acts pragmatically, it will not hesitate to cut rates when the time comes, it is difficult for me to say when, but perhaps in 2025 inflation will again fall to a rational level and there will be no tendency in the coming quarters for it to increase, or unfortunately, for interest rates to increase if the trend of rising inflation continues – stated Adam Glapiński at a press conference.

- Let's take the example of PAP, which was also 'screaming' on Friday... It was carried out. The entry and the possibility of this attack were caused by the fact that an account of one of PAP's users was infiltrated and taken over, by introducing malware onto their device, because it was used inappropriately - stated Krzysztof Gawkowski in an interview with Karolina Lewicka on TOK FM.

- In a sense of responsibility for the state and the democratic process, in the face of tragic events at the border and awaiting explanations, the Left's campaign team has decided to suspend its election campaign ahead of the European Parliament elections. We do not want the death of a person and events at the border to be politically exploited in the election campaign. We extend our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased soldier - informed Katarzyna Kotula on social media.

Oświadczenie sztabu Lewicy:

W poczuciu odpowiedzialności za państwo i proces demokratyczny, w obliczu tragicznych wydarzeń na granicy i w oczekiwaniu na wyjaśnienia, sztab Lewicy podjął decyzję o zawieszeniu kampanii wyborczej przed wyborami do Parlamentu Europejskiego. Nie…

- This shows what this government's politics are truly about. A government that, in any democratic country, would simply have to resign after something like this. I can tell you one thing for sure – they won't resign, there's no doubt about that – stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- We must speak clearly – these elections are about whether this will happen or not. Because that Tusk lied is clear. He said it didn't concern us, that Ukrainians would be counted. They are not being counted, and this is already evident from the general letter that was sent out, stating that we will even be beneficiaries of this, and later he added that he was against it and would block it. Strange, why, if we are to be beneficiaries, why should he block it? It's simply about the fact that this government, under his leadership, is leading us simply to misfortune, to grave misfortune – stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- These are foreign interests, because it is also a government of external forces, to put it mildly. This is a government that implements an agenda that is not Polish, but that of our Western neighbor, it is visible at every step – stated Jarosław Kaczyński during a meeting in Chełm.

- We have this whole big event associated with the abolition of our safeguards, our shields, which means an increase in energy prices, which in effect means an increase in the prices of everything (...) as soon as they get into power, the money's gone again, it's not hard to guess why - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- Climate madness – we must say in the European Parliament, in European institutions, and also here in Poland, that it is all based on a huge deception, on a gigantic deception. It is all untrue, and please do not confuse this with the fact that we must strive for clean air, because of course we must – stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- This is nothing that has a real connection with this madness, with this zero-emission principle – he continued.

- Here sits such a humble prime minister [Morawiecki]. Well, but he managed to halt all these immigration plans and achieved it. It was we, our government, our prime minister who were effective in this fight. Of course, in various ways, we were harassed there, discriminated against, but we kept moving forward all the time, contrary to the stories of our opponents. All sorts of rankings, tables, hierarchies created by the EU itself, organizations, especially the OECD, show that these 8 years were a great success - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- Shortly, there's a match with Ukraine, a friendly match, a testing one, but on Monday, although there's a match with Turkey, there will also be a match on Sunday. A big match, Poland-Germany. Who should win? Poland. The White-Reds - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- We already have signatures, well over 100,000 signatures. We will submit them to the appropriate place, which is the Sejm, and the bill is a bill against [energy price] hikes. A bill that is meant to restore the shield, that mechanism that we could somehow afford, but they cannot afford it - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- Remember, ladies and gentlemen, that when we return to power, we will not need much time, although I won't mention 100 or 400 days, for things to return to their proper state. And what we failed to achieve during these 8 years, for example, judicial reform, will be carried out regardless of who turns up their nose in Brussels - stated Jarosław Kaczyński at a meeting in Chełm.

- Of course, such a situation should not be repeated. We should all act in such a way, especially those responsible for the functioning of our services, for the safety of our soldiers and officers, so that such a situation does not happen again. Should actions be accelerated? It seems to me that they are already very advanced today and are proceeding at a very high pace, because the situation at our border is changing quite dynamically due to the actions of Moscow and Minsk, meaning a regular hybrid war is already underway – stated Michał Kobosko in the program "Fakty po faktach" on TVN24.

- In the face of this tragedy that has occurred. Out of a sense of responsibility for the state, we cannot imagine running this campaign. This situation has shocked and saddened us; we have all been following the doctors' fight for the soldier's life in recent days. I cannot imagine running a campaign now. I cannot imagine that we, as responsible politicians, would use this situation for an election campaign and to incite any negative sentiments – stated Joanna Scheuring-Wielgus on the program "Fakty po faktach" on TVN24.
