- Polish teachers should earn well. I am glad that our government started with this 30% raise, it was a truly noticeable increase for teachers. [...] Last year, a 5% raise, this year a 3% raise - said Barbara Nowacka in an interview with Grzegorz Kępka on Polsat News's "Graffiti", when asked about the demands for raises from the ZNP. - We are also conducting negotiations with the Ministry of Finance. The raise for teachers this year, firstly, will happen, it will be 3% [...] this is information I received from the Ministry of Finance that such raises will be foreseen in the budget, and of course, I continue to talk with the minister because I care about teachers staying in the profession, about the best ones being very well compensated - she continued when asked. - I would very much like there to be [a 10% raise], however, from talks with the Ministry of Finance, all public sector employees will receive a 3% raise - she added.

- Poland must spend what is necessary on defense. The current geopolitical situation, the threat from the East, unequivocally indicates that we must spend a very significant portion of our GDP, and at the moment, we are spending the most among all NATO countries – 4.7%, which is almost 5% – stated Andrzej Domański in a conversation with Bogdan Rymanowski on Radio Zet.

- Regarding enshrining the 4% threshold in the Constitution, I am cautious. Why? It is, in a sense, tying the hands, not of myself, but of future finance ministers, future governments. The level of defence spending should be at the necessary level, but whether it should be 4%, 3%, or 5% is, of course, up for discussion in each specific year. I am for flexibility in this matter – stated Andrzej Domański on Radio Zet.

- Our declaration as the Civic Coalition is that by the end of this term, a resolution, a law, which will ensure that teachers' salaries are not solely tied to the will of the rulers, but to good economic indicators, so that teachers earn well, will come into effect - said Barbara Nowacka in Polsat News.

- Today, we are ready to talk with trade unions about how to distribute this burden, how to distribute this 3%, whether teachers entering the profession can have more, or if the 3% should go more to certified or appointed teachers – that is up for discussion with the trade unions – said Barbara Nowacka on Polsat News.

- I think there is no discussion of names at the moment. What the leaders of the coalition parties are talking about is the structure of how this government should function. As far as I know, there is no such decision [regarding a Deputy Prime Minister for the economy], but these are decisions made between the leaders of the coalition parties - stated Andrzej Domański on Radio Zet.

- The program, which is intended to support local governments, schools, and teachers who have supported Ukrainian children, because that is precisely the structure of this program, will most likely be on the agenda of the government's next session - Barbara Nowacka said on Polsat News, when asked about Joanna Mucha's departure from the Ministry of Education.

- Minister Mucha was responsible for the implementation of this program. I value her highly as a skilled politician and I also know that she knows perfectly well at what stage her program is - she continued.

- No, I think that these kinds of actions in the days leading up to a reconstruction are a political norm - she added, when asked if she was surprised.

At the Ministry of Finance, we are currently working on such a special tax, concerning precisely the interest from mandatory reserves, maintained by banks at the NBP. That's how taxes work, someone has to pay them. What is important to me is that we are not talking here about a tax on excess profits, or about a bad banking sector. This is a policy pursued by the NBP. As Minister of Finance, I cannot evaluate it - stated Andrzej Domański on Radio Zet.

- Currently, we are not working on the implementation of the euro. Poland does not meet the convergence criteria, and in more turbulent times, particularly on global financial markets, the Polish zloty serves as an automatic economic stabilizer - stated Andrzej Domański on Radio Zet.

- The last few weeks have seen very high tensions surrounding education, and in reality, around what we promised our voters. We promised our voters actions for the secularity of the state. One of our commitments concerns issues related to the assessment of religion, religion as the first or last class, and what I am implementing, which is one religion lesson from September 1st - said Barbara Nowacka, when asked about the poll for Wprost, in which she received the weakest ratings among ministers. - Of course, this is met with resistance, both from PiS and from Konfederacja, and I also hear voices of criticism from those who are unwilling to accept this separation of church and state - she continued. - Does it have an impact? Of course, it has an impact, just as any action that meets with criticism from the Church subsequently affects a person's popularity, but this is our commitment - she added.

We in the Ministry of Finance are naturally working on a plan to increase the tax-free allowance. This plan will be presented to the Prime Minister. When it is fully ready. We are considering various scenarios, it must be a very responsible proposal, but of course it will be in line with our priorities - stated Andrzej Domański on Radio Zet.

- By the end of July, energy companies are to provide new tariffs, and the cost [of freezing energy prices until the end of the year] will be calculated from these tariffs. Depending on how this tariff is calculated, the cost can vary greatly: we estimate it to be between PLN 500 million and approximately PLN 850 million - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska in an interview with Grzegorz Osiecki on PR1's "Sygnały dnia" (Signals of the Day). - However, we have secured savings - because yesterday I presented the Prime Minister with savings across various segments of this price-freezing program - we have gathered around PLN 900 million. And from these savings, we wanted to make decisions and pass the legislation before the parliamentary summer recess - she continued. - I previously informed that such savings exist, we have calculated them, and within the scope of these savings, we will implement the freeze for the fourth quarter - she indicated.

- The effects [of energy price freezing] for households will be such that the price of energy will not change in the fourth quarter. You [the public] often asked [...] what's next with energy prices, because this freezing was for three quarters, so we already know today that until the end of the year these prices will not change - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on "Sygnały dnia" PR1.

"From what I hear, my ratings aren't the worst. The leaders assess my work well," said Paulina Hennig-Kloska in "Sygnały dnia" on PR1, when asked about the upcoming government reshuffle. "I have a clear conscience, I've done my soul-searching. Many elements of the coalition agreement have been delivered. 36 laws – the most of all ministries – prepared by this ministry. 18 have already gone to the Sejm, 15 have been signed by the president," she continued. "As you can see, our laws unite, they don't divide, even though it seems this ministry is heavily attacked by the opposition. All our laws have been signed by the president," she pointed out.

- We absolutely proceed from the assumption that there is no better candidate for marshal than Marshal Szymon Hołownia. Of course, this would require the agreement of all coalition partners if he were to remain for the second half of the term. But the Left must also be aware that if they want the marshal, they must cede the deputy prime minister - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska in "Signals of the Day" on PR1. - Currently, we do not have a deputy prime minister in the government, because we have the marshal, and that was the arrangement. The Left must be aware that if they are to receive the marshal, they must give up the deputy prime minister. As the smallest coalition club, they cannot have the greatest weight - she pointed out. - I have the impression that there is also no agreement on this from the Left's side - she stated.

- In my opinion, as a lawyer, such reasons do not exist, there are no such [legal] reasons why Nawrocki would not be sworn in – stated Małgorzata Manowska on RMF FM. - The Constitution contains a certain loophole in this regard; there is no basis in it for the situation where, if the president-elect were not sworn in for reasons such as the Marshal not convening the National Assembly, I do not see in the constitution a basis for Marshal Hołownia to perform the functions of president – she continued.

- I will not judge the Prosecutor General's decisions. The prosecution is there to initiate proceedings if there is a justified suspicion of a crime. Of course, I declare full cooperation within the law and within the limits of the Code of Criminal Procedure – Małgorzata Manowska stated on RMF FM.

"We've got it! Poland has reached for the stars" - Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on X. The head of government published a video in which he watches the broadcast of the Ax-4 mission launch. Polish astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski is participating in this endeavor.

- If there are no extraordinary events, we will manage. People can have various ideas – stated Małgorzata Manowska on RMF FM. - I am not underestimating these protests, but when a protest arrives at our office – and this is naturally a right derived from the citizen's constitution – however, when an electoral protest arrives, accompanied by some Russian missiles, and the police are already involved, then it is a serious matter – she continued.

The Supreme Court cannot simply decide: please recount all votes in Poland. From the perspective of social justice or politics, perhaps, but the Supreme Court is authorized to consider electoral protests. A protest is filed, a citizen should formulate their allegations there, and the Supreme Court deals with those allegations – Małgorzata Manowska stated on RMF FM. If there were a protest that raised valid allegations that something was wrong in all commissions, or in 90%, I wouldn’t rule out such a ruling where the Supreme Court, as part of the evidence proceedings, would recount all votes in Poland. But whether such a protest exists and whether it will be deemed valid – I don’t know – she added.

- I am pleased that everything indicates unity among the Alliance's countries this time as well, primarily on the most important and frequently discussed issue recently, which is increasing defense spending. I also hope that we will make a decision together on this matter, as well as on other issues that are very important to us regarding the building of security for NATO's eastern flank - said President Andrzej Duda during a briefing in The Hague, before the meeting of the North Atlantic Council. - Today, the issue of defense spending is paramount. That's the first point. I hope we will have unity - everything indicates that this is the case - he stated. - However, the second issue, which is very important to us in Poland, is the extension of NATO's strategic pipelines carrying fuel, which currently end in Western Europe - extending them to the eastern flank - he continued.

"A great day for world science. A great day for Poland! With pride and emotion, we observe Mr. Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski embarking on a journey to the International Space Station. This event holds not only technological significance but also a profound symbolic dimension," wrote President Andrzej Duda on X. "May this flight become an inspiration for young Poles – those who bravely dream of seemingly impossible things. Today, the Republic is once again part of great history. A successful mission, Mr. Sławosz!" he continued. "All of Poland is looking to the sky with you. Congratulations and we are keeping our fingers crossed for the success of the entire mission. Fly with God!" reads the president's post.

Wielki dzień dla światowej nauki. Wielki dzień dla Polski! ??

Today is the second reading of the onshore wind turbine development act. As I stated, the primary goal of this act, and indeed of all our activities in the energy sector supported, of course, by the government, is to lower and ensure that Poles have an acceptable, lower level of energy prices, both for households, for Polish families, and for the economy – stated Paulina Hennig-Kloska at a press conference.

- We are liberalizing the rules, but the main link in this liberalization is handing over the decision-making power to local governments, to local communities. It will be the municipal councils that make decisions, designating areas where renewable energy sources can develop at all, and they will also indicate places through the process of public consultations, because that's how the act is structured – said Paulina Hennig-Kloska at a press conference. - The government will not be pointing fingers; it is precisely the local communities that are to make these decisions, which are crucial from the perspective of the municipality's interests – she added.

– The capacity fee is disproportionately less important. It's PLN 11 on the bill; what was crucial for us was freezing the price of energy per MWh, that PLN 500, and that is precisely what the amendment to be filed in parliament today through the legislative process will concern – stated Paulina Hennig-Kloska at a press conference.

The Supreme Court has announced that a public session to adopt a resolution concerning the validity of the Presidential elections has been scheduled for July 1, 2025, at 1:00 PM.

- We truly heard that there would be clean water. We were supposed to have pluralistic media with space for every side of a dispute. Meanwhile, data from the National Broadcasting Council clearly shows that in 2024, public media favored the new ruling coalition – stated Paulina Matysiak in the Sejm. - Instead of clean water, we have old soup, and let's be clear, there is no fair democracy without independent public media – she added.

- Reading documents from the National Broadcasting Council and the National Media Council confirms one thing: the state institutions responsible for supervising public media have failed. But let's not delude ourselves, the responsibility for the chaos in public media does not lie solely with these bodies. It also lies with Donald Tusk's government, which, instead of bringing order, has led to a legal and institutional mess from which public media have not recovered to this day – Paulina Matysiak said in the Sejm. - Telewizja Polska in liquidation and Polskie Radio in liquidation are far from the standards Poles would expect – she added.

"The NATO Summit is an opportunity for meetings and discussions among leaders of member states. In The Hague, President Andrzej Duda spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump" - informed the Chancellery of the President on X.

- In 2024, the National Broadcasting Council (KRRiT) encountered difficulties in fulfilling its statutory obligation to investigate the ownership structure of broadcasters, particularly in the case of TVN SA. The broadcaster initially refused to provide full data, citing trade secrets - said Maciej Świrski in the Sejm, presenting the KRRiT's annual report for 2024. - After a KRRiT summons, the data was provided, with a trade secret clause, which, in light of Polish and EU law, has no legal force. However, this data revealed a very complex structure involving over 20 companies registered in jurisdictions such as Delaware, Barbados, Saint Thomas, Amsterdam, and London - he continued. - Most of these over 20 companies are located in tax havens. […] The companies that are directly above TVN in this hierarchy, which are the owners of TVN, belong to two companies, one in Delaware, the other in Barbados. One owns 98% of this chain, and the other 0.000001%. This implies some kind of golden share or another form of ownership whose owner is unknown - the head of KRRiT pointed out. - We tried to verify this, but Polish services refused due to a lack of legal basis, and law firms that could verify it […] also cannot do so because in Poland they all have a conflict of interest, and KRRiT cannot afford foreign firms - he added. He continued: - The process of granting TVN's license – which was so debated and protested by you – was precisely because we tried to find out who actually owns TVN. - As KRRiT, we are not sure, and the Polish state is also not sure who actually owns TVN. These two companies directly above the companies that own TVN are simply opaque - Świrski assessed. - Meanwhile, two companies in London, which are part of this chain, are known to have ties to Moscow – that they were, or even still are, owners of Russian television channels, and these individuals, in turn, are directly linked to Putin - he emphasized. - Hence my doubts and my desire to find out who owns TVN, but this has led to accusations of bringing me before the State Tribunal for prolonging the licensing process. Nothing was prolonged; we stayed within the timeframe - he stated.

"[Recounting all votes] is, firstly, [...] a procedure unforeseen by law, therefore it cannot be carried out at all, and secondly, it is absurd, because who guarded all those votes during the break between voting and the potential recount? After all, there is no certainty that they were not, let's say, treated in an unfair manner" - said Jarosław Kaczyński in an interview with journalists in the Sejm.

- The entire procedure concerning the vote recount should proceed as quickly as possible, and all these cases of irregularities, whether to the detriment of Rafał Trzaskowski or Karol Nawrocki, show that the results in those commissions where any doubts have been raised in protests must be recounted - Jan Grabiec told journalists in the Sejm.

- How is the PO (Civic Platform) government portrayed on television that’s being dismantled? Well, we have an apologist for a Stalinist criminal, one of the commanders of the Augustów roundup, and I would remind you that promoting totalitarian regimes is prohibited by the penal code – stated Radosław Fogiel in the Sejm. - On the day WP (an online news portal) reported on the strange dismissal of Roman Giertych’s thread in the Polnord case, she invited Roman Giertych, and not a single question was asked about that matter. Instead, she backed him in spreading conspiracy theories, undermining the foundations of Polish democracy, and questioning the electoral decisions of Poles – he continued.

"The decision to increase defense spending in all Alliance states was made unanimously! The NATO summit in The Hague, following the Warsaw summit in 2016, is of historical significance" - wrote President Andrzej Duda on X.

"Aware of the current security conditions, over a year ago in New York, I proposed to President Donald Trump to push for this decision. Thank you, Mr. President, for your effective leadership and key support for the initiative to raise defense spending. Polish-American cooperation has proven its effectiveness. The NATO summit strengthens transatlantic ties, and a stronger NATO means a safer Poland!" - he continued.

Decyzja o zwiększeniu wydatków na obronność we wszystkich państwach Sojuszu została podjęta jednogłośnie! Szczyt NATO w Hadze, jako kolejny po szczycie w Warszawie w 2016 roku, ma wymiar historyczny.

- This summit, which has just concluded, made a decision to increase defence spending in all NATO states, which on the one hand corresponds to the indeed objectively existing situation, and on the other hand to what I proposed over a year ago, when I was invited by President Joe Biden to the White House - President Andrzej Duda said at a press conference.

- Of course, we must strengthen our defenses, we must be prepared, but probably if we were attacked by Russia, it would be difficult for us to cope on our own, even when we implement all our currently outlined intentions regarding the modernization of our army and strengthening our defense. However, within the North Atlantic Alliance, we are safe - said President Andrzej Duda at a press conference.

- Yes, today we spoke for quite a long time with the minister, and I hope we will reach an agreement on this matter. I clarified certain issues for the minister, elaborated on them; perhaps there were some misunderstandings, and even some elements of disinformation, but our direct conversation, I believe, clarified a lot, and I hope it will be resolved successfully - President Andrzej Duda said at a press conference, when asked if he had managed to meet with Radosław Sikorski and discuss the recall of certain ambassadors. - I was a bit concerned by this situation because, as you know, we had reached a compromise some time ago, and I signed these ambassadorial appointments. Recently, I signed many of them, and we are currently processing further ones. Frankly, this was a completely unexpected situation for me, even strange, but I think we have clarified these issues today - he continued.

- I have already told President Karol Nawrocki what is obvious from my point of view regarding Polish politics. The duty of every President of the Republic of Poland is to strengthen Polish-American ties - said President Andrzej Duda at a press conference. - I listen with pride when some experts say that today Polish-American relations are the best they have ever been in our history, especially after '89. This is a great compliment for me, because I truly feel that I have been building these relations over the years with successive presidents of the United States - he continued. - I am pleased that President Donald Trump received Karol Nawrocki, even as a candidate in the elections, at the White House. This is a great forecast for me. I believe we can soon expect both a visit from the new Polish president to the White House and a visit from the President of the United States to Warsaw. Of course, the dates will be arranged, but I assume it will happen soon - he went on to say.

- At this moment, I do not fear Russian aggression against other countries, because according to my information, in my opinion, Russia is heavily depleted by the aggression against Ukraine and by the immense losses it has suffered in Ukraine - said President Andrzej Duda at a press conference. - However, please remember that Russian military industry has been reoriented to a war footing. Russia, if it maintains this, will be able to quickly rebuild its military potential, and perhaps even increase it compared to what it possessed when attacking Ukraine. Therefore, the 10-year timeframe should be considered critical - he continued.

- The issue of wind turbines also appeared [at the National Security Council], I said that I am not an enthusiast of solutions in the wind turbine act that would cause wind turbines to bother people, that the landscape in Poland would be spoiled, because I am personally not a supporter of wind turbines, I am a supporter of other types of renewable energy, I am not a supporter of onshore wind turbines, the landscape simply matters more to me than observing wind turbines standing everywhere - said President Andrzej Duda at a press conference. - I understand that unfortunately, the Prime Minister and his associates, by introducing such an amendment that is supposed to protect Poles from rising energy prices, are simply trying to force me to sign this act by cornering me, but he must remember that I am already finishing my second term - he continued.

- When it comes to Mr. Karol Nawrocki [...] from the President's office, matters appear different. When he sits at the desk of the President of the Republic and looks at this perspective, which is unique, absolutely one-of-a-kind, he will certainly consider all issues one by one - said President Andrzej Duda at a press conference, when asked about Karol Nawrocki's statements which are causing concern in Kyiv and whether the new president will continue PAD's line regarding Ukraine. - This is a completely different situation than an election campaign, a presidential one; it's a different level of political tensions, and there are also different obligations one has at the moment of being sworn in and being the President of the Republic, so I am calm - he continued.

- I have proposed such a solution. I hope it will be adopted. Am I afraid it might not be adopted? Seeing the behaviour of especially the parliamentary majority today, I do indeed fear it might not be adopted - President Andrzej Duda said at a press conference when asked if he was confident that his project regarding enshrining 4% of GDP for defence in the Constitution would be adopted by parliament. - Please remember that in 6 weeks my mission as President of the Republic of Poland will end, and therefore, this last act of responsibility for Polish affairs that I am still trying to implement was to submit this project to parliament - he continued.

- Of course, the Supreme Court will rule, I don't know how it will rule, but as far as I can rationally predict and based on what we are observing, I see absolutely no grounds for this ruling to be anything other than a confirmation of the validity of the election and the victory of Karol Nawrocki. There is no premise for it to be otherwise - said Marcin Horała in a conversation with Beata Lubecka on the program "Gość Radia Zet", when asked if he expected a surprise, namely that the Supreme Court would not validate the election.

- Recounting all votes is not only irrational, I believe it is deliberate sabotage, because [...] 32,000 commissions, 300,000 people counted them. If the Supreme Court, now assisted by district or regional courts and the prosecution, were to recount them in 32,000 commissions, it would take a year - said Marcin Horała on Radio Zet.

- There's a Roman Giertych, who has discovered his political interest in treating the trauma of the Platform's hard-core electorate, which cannot come to terms with the fact that the Platform lost the election. And the cynical behavior of Prime Minister Donald Tusk as well, who, in turn, probably only cares about ensuring that within the Platform's electorate there is no discussion about why he lost the election for the Platform – said Marcin Horała on Radio Zet.

- To a large extent, it's him. Rafał Trzaskowski lost, but to a large extent thanks to Donald Tusk, and Donald Tusk would generally like to avoid discussions within the Platform camp and the ruling coalition about why they lost the election. So he prefers a discussion that goes like "maybe something is wrong, maybe we should recount" – he continued.

- So far, it's been somewhat of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Meaning, if Mr. Maciej Lasek said that in '28, as we planned, the opening of CPK is impossible, then he has already ensured that it is indeed impossible. Now we are close to him ensuring that '32 will also be impossible, because unfortunately, these works are crawling along terribly, and within the already delayed four-year schedule, there are already delays on top of delays – said Marcin Horała on Radio Zet. - At the pace at which this is being done now, I fear that even the year '35 is doubtful – he continued.

- First and foremost, we should see how many commissions are actually being discussed here. That is, if it concerns the same commissions, if these are justified anomalies, if these are justified suspicions, then of course they should be checked and verified – stated Marcelina Zawisza on RMF FM. - There are so few anomalies that they will not affect the final election result. Therefore, I think it's high time that both Mr. Giertych and PO simply accept the fact that they lost the election – she added.

- I have one appeal: do not fuel sentiments that the elections were falsified, because that is exactly what Roman Giertych wants and what is in the interest of Civic Platform, as they are building their new Smolensk myth – said Marcelina Zawisza on RMF FM. - They are building a founding myth to which they will refer for years to come, claiming they were robbed of the election. If we want to be a democratic state, we must believe in the democratic process and trust that this democratic process is being carried out in the correct formula – she added.

- If there are any anomalies, if there are any election protests, each of them should be considered and resolved. If they do not ultimately affect the election results, then we should simply recognize these elections. It cannot be the case that Minister Bodnar, without concrete evidence and based on analyses by people who do not deal with this on a daily basis [statistical analysis], theorizes that we should check 1500 commissions – stated Marcelina Zawisza on RMF FM.

- I have the impression that we are in a very difficult situation, from which it will be very hard for us to get out, and actually what we should be talking about is a [constitutional] reset. This is the need to sit down and talk about how this system is supposed to work, because it cannot work the way it is working now – said Marcelina Zawisza in RMF FM.

The Together party has a clear direction, which is to run independently in 2027. We have already begun preparations [for the parliamentary elections] – stated Marcelina Zawisza on RMF FM. The Together party is the only guarantee for looking after people's affairs while simultaneously ending the POPiS skirmish. What harms Poland is precisely the consequence of two men falling out 20 years ago and being unable to even look at each other without hatred, let alone be in the same room. These are people incapable of developing any solutions for the people – she continued.

- I think we could only answer this question [whether the elections were falsified] after a precise investigation. Once the 1480 commissions [1472, as requested by Adam Bodnar to the Supreme Court - editor's note] are examined, we will be closer to answering this question. If 10% of the commissions are falsified, it means everything needs to be recounted, that's what I believe - Roman Giertych said on TVN24's "Kropka nad i". When asked who would decide that all votes should be recounted from the beginning, he replied: - The Prosecutor General can make such a decision. He has a legal basis in Article 79, paragraph 4 of the Electoral Code. He can do this within the framework of Article 207 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. An examination – we open it in the presence of the media. - All parties, meaning the electoral committees, representatives of the local polling station commission, and the media can be invited - he added. When pressed on who would count these votes, he replied: - According to the procedure, it is done either by the police or by a prosecutor. That is the rule in the Code of Criminal Procedure. I think [it would take] 2 days.

- I don't know what the result of the presidential election was. But I'll tell you more: the PKW (National Electoral Commission) doesn't know either. Later [after handing over the certificate of election to Karol Nawrocki], the PKW accepted a report where it wrote: there were incidents that could have influenced the election results. Whether they had an influence or not – let the Supreme Court decide in a proper composition, meaning without this circus we are witnessing – said Roman Giertych in TVN24's "Kropka nad i" (A Dot Over the 'i'). - If someone says 'it could have had an influence', but we don't know if it did, then they are actually undermining the presumption of validity that was normally attributed to the PKW's decisions, because it means the PKW actually doesn't know – he stated. - So if the PKW doesn't know, why should I know? – he asked.

- I don't assume that [the elections were rigged] because I am a lawyer and I base my conclusions on evidence. For now, we see that we have 15 commissions where, in the vast majority, fraud was committed in favor of Mr. Nawrocki - said Roman Giertych on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".

- I recall Jarosław Kaczyński saying: from this podium, I declare the elections were falsified. Let him not be a hypocrite. It seems to me that Jarosław Kaczyński knows very well why he is so afraid of a recount - said Roman Giertych on TVN24's "Kropka nad i". - Because if I were sure that my candidate had won, I would say: let's recount, and we'll see what happens. Why are they so opposed to this recount? - he added.

- On Tuesday, the Chamber [of Extraordinary Control of the Supreme Court] announces: the elections were valid. So what? - Monika Olejnik asked on TVN24's "Kropka nad i". - In my opinion, the government has no right to issue such a resolution because it is not a court. Therefore, the resolution does not gain legal force - replied Roman Giertych. - So, you believe the Prime Minister should not accept this resolution? - the host pressed. - We have been saying all along that this is not a court, so why should we claim it is now? - replied the Civic Coalition politician.

- The prosecution discontinued the investigation for one reason, concerning the fact that an attorney is generally not charged for their client acquiring a claim that they - the attorney - wish to pursue in court. Charges are not filed, and this is correct - said Roman Giertych on TVN24’s “Kropka nad i” (The Dot Over the ‘i’), when asked about the WP article “How the prosecution discontinued the investigation into Roman Giertych in the Polnord affair”. - However, there were also other reasons for the discontinuations, as indicated by the courts. I am glad that WP is so concerned about the prosecution being consistent in its actions. I support this postulate - he stated. - I would, however, take this opportunity, since we are talking about WP, to mention that it would be good if we finally learned who Krzysztof Suwart is - he added.

- The circuit electoral commissions have been illegally – and I can say this with full responsibility – seized in large part by people like Mr. Olszański, some 'brother comrades' who gathered in certain groups. And suddenly, a brother comrade nominated several thousand members for the circuit electoral commissions – said Roman Giertych on TVN24's "Kropka nad i".
