– I hope that one of the themes of the presidential campaign will be a vision for Poland. What kind of Poland do we envision? Will it be a Poland exclusively accessible to the largest metropolises […], or will it also be a Poland that notices Kalisz, Płock, and other cities that are simply waiting for their chance today – said Szymon Hołownia at a press conference in Kalisz.

– In this regard, I also have a question for my potential rivals. To Rafał Trzaskowski: does he agree with the vision presented today by Prime Minister Donald Tusk? Does he agree with the vision that a 100-minute Poland should be precisely the Poland that quickly gets us to Poznań, Szczecin, or Wrocław? What would he say today to the residents of Kalisz? Would he agree with me that we need high-speed rail here in Kalisz today? – he asked.

– I am directing this question not only to the Civic Coalition candidate. I am also directing it to Karol Nawrocki from PiS. How does he see Poland? Should it be a Poland where we can travel from one major city to another in 100 minutes, or should it be a Poland where everyone who needs to can reach where they need to in 100 minutes? – he continued.
