Leszczyna on Whom She'll Support in the KO Primaries:
He's a Great Candidate, I'm Sure He'll Win.

Leszczyna:
PiS Privatized the Healthcare System and Failed to Organize It for Access to Doctors in Small Towns
08:23
Czarzasty:
We Won't Agree to Diverting Funds from Hospitals
- We do not agree to taking money away from hospitals, where there is already a shortage of funds. Therefore, I believe this is a rational stance. Consequently, we have stated: if you want to help entrepreneurs, and if you are not using our proposed idea, then we kindly ask you to balance the deficit in healthcare funding – stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News' "Graffiti".
- We told the minister [of finance], whom we deeply respect; we believe Minister Domański is managing these matters excellently, as it is difficult and financial resources are scarce everywhere, that we simply propose and ask for this to be taken into consideration. We hope it will be. The government will hold a discussion today. If these conditions are met to a significant extent, our ministers will of course support it – the Deputy Marshal of the Sejm continued.
08:25
08:28
Czarzasty:
No Agreement on Hospital Privatization in Any Form
- There will be no agreement on hospital privatization in any form, as far as the Left is concerned. Why? Because hospitals are not, in our opinion, for making money, but rather for serving people - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in the "Graffiti" program on Polsat News.
- The Left submitted two or three comments in this regard, I don't know if they will be taken into account or not, but these comments likely contributed to Minister Leszczyna deciding to discuss it further, probably with other caucuses - he continued.
08:37
Czarzasty on the Sejm Marshal's Position:
No Reasonable Person Would Want to Break the Coalition Agreement
- No emotions. I understand that he [Michał Kobosko] wanted to draw attention to his statements. We forgive and ask for forgiveness - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in Polsat News's "Graffiti".
- This will not be any problem for the coalition, because this coalition is made up of reasonable people. There is a coalition agreement, breaking the coalition agreement is binding and carries various consequences. I think no reasonable person would want to break this agreement - he continued.
08:46
Czarzasty on Leave During the Presidential Campaign:
We’ve Set the Rules.
– We’ve set the rules, which the Marshal of the Sejm will also adhere to if he decides to run [regarding leave during the campaign]. Let’s not get carried away, it’s not as if those who will be running [for president] will leave the country for a month and a half. Everyone has their duties, so it must be performed within reason – stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in “Graffiti” on Polsat News.
09:12
Kamiński:
Sikorski's Nomination for President Will Reopen Discussion on a Joint Candidate
- I believe that Radosław Sikorski's nomination as the KO candidate for president will reopen the discussion about a joint candidate. If Radosław Sikorski were to be the candidate, I would advocate for all of us, including Szymon Hołownia, to agree on this candidacy. Moreover, I think there are huge chances for this – stated Michał Kamiński in the program "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" on TVN24.
09:13
Kamiński on Why Sikorski is a Better Candidate Than Trzaskowski:
He Didn't Participate in Removing Crosses from Offices.
- If you ask me why Trzaskowski is a worse candidate in the second round than Radosław Sikorski, it's because Radosław Sikorski did not remove crosses from offices in Poland, and Radosław Sikorski did not participate in or permit the parodying of Holy Mass – Michał Kamiński stated on TVN24.
- There are a lot of non-PiS voters, and therein lies the problem. Non-PiS voters who do not want a moral revolution and leftism in Poland, whatever we may call it, and this is a problem we must face – he continued.
09:14
Kamiński:
Don't Expect Trump to Be Indifferent to Who Becomes President in Warsaw
- Let's not rule out, but rather be highly certain, that this will be a campaign strongly supported from across the ocean. It will be a campaign that can count on support from America, because for the American administration, the chance to install a president very much their own in Warsaw is something Americans will look at with interest, given that Trump has very few allies in Europe today, very few – stated Michał Kamiński on TVN24.
- Next year, Poland will have the world's 13th largest defense budget. This is a budget that is very strongly noticed from the Pentagon's perspective, so don't expect that Donald Trump, with his approach to the world, will be indifferent to who takes the presidency in such an important country as Poland is today – he continued.
09:15
Kamiński on Hołownia's Election Run:
With the Logic That Every Party Has Its Candidate, He Has Huge Chances.
- The TD's candidate for president is Szymon Hołownia. We were in agreement on this, and nothing has happened to change that. If the logic prevails, which it seems our friends from PO prefer, and which Prime Minister Donald Tusk described as a proposal for three relatively friendly campaigns, then naturally, within that logic, Szymon Hołownia is a candidate, and a very good one, with huge chances – stated Michał Kamiński on TVN24.
- I don't think so, I mean, he probably was by someone. I don't know, honestly, I'm telling you, I don't know [if Siewiera was considered as the PSL's presidential candidate] – he added.

Błaszczak on Proposals for Changes to the Health Contribution:
We Won't Be Drawn into Internal Coalition Disputes.
13:30
Sikorski Responds to Błaszczak:
On Security and Foreign Policy, Polish Elites Remain United. We Act Together.
- The base construction was initiated by Republican President George Bush. Democrat Barack Obama began it, Republican Donald Trump continued it, and it was ultimately completed during the presidency of Democrat Joe Biden. It took some time, but this construction demonstrates the geostrategic consistency of the USA. I have personal satisfaction; on August 20, 2008, I signed an agreement with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice regarding the installation of elements of the missile shield in Poland - says Radosław Sikorski in a recording published on social media, thus responding to the words of Mariusz Błaszczak.
- The negotiations were not easy, but they concluded with an agreement beneficial to the Republic of Poland. I have repeatedly emphasized in conversations with foreign partners that on issues of security and foreign policy, Polish elites remain united. We act together - stressed the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Duda on the Redzikowo Base:
The Whole World Will Know This Is Not a Russian Sphere of Influence.
- I will never forget that for the first time in my life, I heard about the idea of building an American missile base in Poland as part of the missile shield in 2008. I was then the youngest minister in the office of the President of the Republic, Professor Lech Kaczyński, and it was Professor Lech Kaczyński who spoke to me about this idea, which was extremely important for Poland's security – stated Andrzej Duda at a press conference.
- This is very important because this American base will be built on our land, in Poland, in its center, and from the moment this base stands here, the whole world will clearly and distinctly see that this is no longer a Russian sphere of influence, and from our point of view, from the Polish point of view, this is strategically the most important thing – he continued.
14:00
- An American destroyer on Polish soil is becoming a reality, an extraordinary event in the history of the security of Poland, the USA, and NATO. It is like a milestone and a cornerstone at the same time. A milestone in missile defense and air defense for all NATO countries, for Europe and the USA - stated Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in Redzikowo.
- Through this installation, through the American base in Redzikowo, Europe, the USA, Poland, and NATO are becoming even safer, the most powerful alliance in the modern world. The current conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East prove how important, if not the most important, air and missile defense is - the Deputy Prime Minister continued.
- Therefore, this is a milestone for a safe, modern world, for nations that love peace, justice, goodness, and beauty - emphasized the Minister of National Defence.
- The Redzikowo base means the eternal presence of American and allied troops on the territory of the Republic of Poland, and strategically for Poland, this is one of the most important events and occurrences in its history after 1989 - he noted.
14:04
- This is a very good foundation for further cooperation with the US administration, with President Trump. This is a very important, serious task for us, for which we are ready and we know that it will end with even greater successes - stated Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in Redzikowo.
14:05
Kosiniak-Kamysz Thanks Siemoniak and Błaszczak, Among Others:
Jointly Continuing the Work of Strengthening the Polish-American Alliance
- I also thank my other predecessors, everyone, Minister Siemoniak and Minister Błaszczak, for the fact that we could jointly continue this work of strengthening the Polish-American alliance - stated Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in Redzikowo.

Sikorski:
I'm Happy About the Base in Redzikowo and Will Pray It Never Has to Be Used

Tusk After Talks with NATO Secretary General on Mobilizing EU Prime Ministers and Presidents:
Nothing About Ukraine Without Ukraine.
- We both share a clear view on this. I will repeat the words I said in Budapest: nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine. I have already made efforts to mobilize EU prime ministers and presidents to make this principle universal. This means that EU member states should ensure that future decisions regarding – God willing – the end of the war or the freezing of the conflict, take place in full agreement and with the participation of the interested states, those from the eastern flank, but above all, Ukraine itself – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the NATO Secretary General.

Trzaskowski on His Strengths as a Candidate:
My Experience in Recent Campaigns Will Pay Off.
- Unlike PiS, we do not take offense at election results, and just as PiS and President Duda took offense that Joe Biden won the election 4 years ago, we are mature and approach this with absolute calm. Personally, I have very good relations with politicians from both the Democratic and Republican parties – stated Rafał Trzaskowski at a meeting with residents.
- This campaign will be unbelievably difficult, ladies and gentlemen. It is already apparent how much manipulation and how much falsehood there will be, we all know this, and how much rudeness there will also be from the other side, because that can also be expected, and I will tell you that my testing in these recent campaigns will truly pay off – he added.
19:26
Trzaskowski Accuses PiS of Favoring Republicans:
We Have an Alliance with the State, Not Just One Administration.
- I am very pleased that we managed to do this together, because without you, without your support, there would be no Campus, that we managed to organize this event right here, because it shows that we are consistent, that we always want to talk with the younger generation and listen to their voice. So many politicians have said that they want to talk to young people, who are, after all, our future, but in reality, very few actually do it, and we are doing it together – stated Rafał Trzaskowski at a meeting with residents.
- From the very beginning, we invited experts from both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. These analytical organizations supported us. The Republican Institute on the one hand, the Democratic Institute on the other, because from the very beginning we knew what was most important, that for Poland the alliance with the United States is the most crucial, that we have an alliance with the state, not just one administration – he continued.

Duda After Meeting with NATO Chief:
I Cannot Imagine Trump Allowing Russia to Destroy Ukraine.
- We know that President Donald Trump, as a person, is a successful man. Certainly, a born fighter, he likes to fight and above all, he dislikes losing. He is a winner, which was also shown in the recent elections in the United States - stated President Andrzej Duda after meeting with the Secretary General of NATO.
- President Donald Trump greatly respects, we also know this – the American taxpayer's money. He has spoken about this many times, he has emphasized it many times. I myself have also heard him many times in the NATO forum, when he spoke about how all these burdens, expenses that the United States undertakes, are money gathered in the United States budget by American taxpayers – it is his duty to respect that money - continued PAD.
"My conclusions are unequivocal”
- If we take this into consideration, if we consider how much the United States has already invested in aid to Ukraine, how gigantic sums have been transferred to the defenders of Ukraine in various forms of combat equipment, financial assistance, so that Ukraine can survive and defend itself, then my conclusions are unequivocal - he emphasized.
"I Cannot Imagine Him Allowing Russia to Destroy Ukraine”
- President Donald Trump, I cannot imagine him allowing Russia to destroy Ukraine, Ukraine, into which the United States, into which the American taxpayer, whose money President Donald Trump will soon be responsible for when he takes office, has invested such enormous amounts. This is a matter of respect for the American taxpayer's money, and it is also a matter that America has become involved, and America does not lose - added PAD.

Sikorski on Exhumations in Volhynia:
I Believe Removing This Issue from the Agenda Serves Ukraine's Interests.
- If Ukraine allowed the exhumation of 100,000 invaders, Wehrmacht soldiers, then why doesn't it allow Poland, Poles, who were, after all, sons of that land and were murdered, to simply do the same. I believe that removing this issue from the agenda of bilateral relations serves Ukraine's interests. Because it is in Ukraine's interest to maintain a friendly attitude towards Ukraine within Polish society – stated Radosław Sikorski in an interview with Patrycjusz Wyżga on the program Didaskalia.
