- Our decision was determined by the personal merits of Mr. Doctor, President Nawrocki, his outstanding merits, his life path, but it was also determined by the fact that today we are in a special state. We are in a state that, unfortunately, I say this with pain, can be described as an internal war. A Polish-Polish war. We do not want this war - stated Jarosław Kaczyński during a convention in Krakow.

Karol Nawrocki was presented as a candidate at the so-called civic convention of PiS in Krakow.

- Within 24 hours, we managed to gather 170 people representing various specialties, different professions of outstanding individuals, ladies and gentlemen of the Order of the White Eagle, people of creative work as well as scientists, people who serve the Republic of Poland in various capacities - said Prof. Andrzej Nowak.

- I call for the creation of the largest and most active civic support committees - he continued.

- We need a credible person, independent of any political formation, who will have the will – and certainly has such will, will likely speak about it – and most importantly, the opportunity to end this war – stated Jarosław Kaczyński during a convention in Krakow.

- What lies ahead, what follows today's meeting? Immense work in the campaign, to construct the protection of these elections, because our opponents may resort to so-called rich tactics. Finally, it's the effort of each of us, to persuade those who are undecided, those with whom it is possible to talk, because there are those with whom it is not possible, but with many it is, and this is a task for everyone in this hall, every Polish patriot - stated Jarosław Kaczyński during a convention in Krakow.

- Another example could be the attempt to construct a 4th generation reactor project in Poland. No one in Europe has built such a reactor, although there is already generation 4.5 in the world. Perhaps some of you have heard of SMRs, but those are in the United States. It was a march of the highest modernity here, and money was allocated for it. Today, money is no longer allocated. Today, the most prominent Polish artificial intelligence specialist has been removed from his position – stated Jarosław Kaczyński at the PiS convention.

- A strong, modern economy is not just high GDP; it is also the ability to operate at the forefront, at the forefront of development. And we Poles are capable of being there, we just need peace, we need good governance – he continued.

- Ten years ago, many didn't believe [in Andrzej Duda's victory]. Today, as I see it, this belief exists and it should prevail – stated Jarosław Kaczyński during the convention in Krakow.

- Yes, I confirm. This is a place of victories. I believe that right today, here, we are starting the story of another victory. I believe in this victory and I believe in Poland and in you, dear ladies and gentlemen - stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- I believe in Poland and I will fight for it - he continued.

- Trust me, I didn't take selfies when I rode tram line 12 every day for 5 years from Gdańsk Siedlce to the University of Gdańsk. That was my normal life, I didn't need to take selfies – stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- I am ready [to become president] because I have been with you my entire life. I am by your side, I know Poles, and I understand your needs. Yes, I am one of you. I want to become your president because I know and understand that for Poland to exist, it must be great, because we must defend Poland and our values. We must not allow our symbols to be taken away and our sovereignty to be limited. I want to become your president because I have worked hard my entire life and continue to do so – stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- As a nation, we must finally undertake the effort to extinguish the Polish-Polish war. Because this is about Poland, not about the Polish-Polish war. This is my first proposal and promise to Poles. If you trust me as a civic candidate, the Polish-Polish war will end - stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- I received the most beautiful lesson in history and service to the Republic of Poland at the Institute of National Remembrance, fighting for Polish memory, nurturing Polish memory here in Poland, but also around the world. Literally at all latitudes, advocating for the Polish truth in the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and in European countries – said Karol Nawrocki at the PiS convention.

- In a special way, ladies and gentlemen, I wanted to thank the United Right camp and its leader, Mr. Jarosław Kaczyński. Mr. President, dear friends, thank you for your trust, but above all, thank you for the responsibility that allowed, in the name of building unity, to support a candidate who has always been non-partisan, a candidate who has always been non-partisan, a civic candidate – stated Karol Nawrocki at the PiS convention.

– We are part of the largest military alliance in history today. NATO, or the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Because in case anyone didn't know, it's the same thing – stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- Yes, I believe in a Poland effectively defending its borders, not a Poland paying illegal immigrants to leave our country - stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- To safeguard the prosperity of hard-working Poles, to safeguard the prosperity of all of you, dear sirs and madams, I will present further legislative initiatives, the first of which will be to free hard-working Poles from taxes on overtime hours worked – stated Karol Nawrocki at the PiS convention in Krakow.

Nawrocki: The Polish countryside must remain a bastion of Polish culture and tradition

- Poland also needs agreement and care in the area of food security, respecting the sovereignty of the Polish countryside and firmly reacting to unfair competition mechanisms, with the Polish interest in mind. Because the Polish countryside, it was, it is, and it must remain a bastion of Polish culture, tradition, and social values – he continued.

- I believe in Poland – an AI digital innovation valley. We already have educated people, and I am speaking to you, to those educated people who are in the new technologies sector. We will eliminate the barriers blocking you – stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- And I tell you - see you in Polish municipalities, villages, cities, everywhere where we believe in Poland. Long live Poland, may the anthem of the Republic of Poland guide us - stated Karol Nawrocki during a convention in Krakow.

- There will be no great Poland without great projects like the Central Communication Port. The Central Communication Port with a full rail network, with water transport. Poles must simply, dear sirs and madams, be closer to each other, closer to their work, closer to their friends, in a well-connected Poland that is the center of Europe – said Karol Nawrocki at the PiS convention in Krakow.

- Every rival is a serious challenge; whoever underestimates their competitors will lose the election. There are no sure bets in races like these. We know something about that – wrote Prime Minister Donald Tusk on social media.

Każdy z rywali jest poważnym wyzwaniem, kto zlekceważy konkurentów - przegra wybory. W takich wyścigach nie ma pewniaków. Coś o tym wiemy.

- The stage of party auditions has concluded, and we already know the nominations. On the left, we have a candidate anointed by Donald Tusk; on the right, by Jarosław Kaczyński. Two mega-parties have stated what will be best for them for the next 5 years – “POPIS: Reactivation” – Szymon Hołownia wrote on social media.

- And what will be best for the citizens – from the left, the right, and the center? Independence, cooperation, security, and determination to mend Poland – the Marshal of the Sejm emphasized.

One of Prime Minister Tusk's closest associates, Paweł Graś, responded to this tweet: - Seriously? Is this a hack on the account or a real post?.

Serio? To włam na konto czy prawdziwy wpis ?
