Tusk on Raising the Tax-Free Allowance:

Certainly Not by 2026.

Michał Olech

- I don't think it will be possible as early as 2027. We are working on the tax-free allowance. I've spoken about this, I don't want to provoke fear or anxiety. When I say that we are currently spending 5% on defense in Poland, I say this to explain, because I want to treat people honestly. Since we are spending the most in Europe, few in the world spend so much on defense, because we have a real threat, we truly have a hybrid threat in our midst and a regular war just beyond our border. So, yes, the money we are spending on armaments, on the Polish army, on Polish security, is much more than I had anticipated we would have to spend - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk on TVN24's "Fakty po faktach" (Facts After Facts).

- When we are ready with the draft for the tax-free allowance and its timeline, meaning how much and when, I will inform you precisely about it. Certainly, it won't be in place by 2026 - he continued.
