"I Am Clearly Full of Concerns." Tomczyk on the "Nawrocki Circle"
- We've only had a dozen or so hours of Karol Nawrocki's presidency so far. This is some new chapter in Poland's history, and we'll have to see what it looks like. I am clearly full of concerns; I've seen Karol Nawrocki's circle and also the people he is bringing into the Presidential Palace - stated Cezary Tomczyk on TVP Info. - These are often people with prosecutorial charges or with very uninteresting pasts, for example, in the football hooligan environment. This raises questions about how Karol Nawrocki himself will fulfill his role. I think everyone must focus on their work today - he continued.

08:01

Tomczyk:

A New Era in Poland's History Begins. I am Convinced We Will Cope

I would very much wish it were not so, I would wish that a newly inaugurated president would block various solutions concerning citizens. I hope this situation will not arise. But everything is ahead of us. Certainly, a new period in Poland's history is beginning, a new period that will have its bright and dark sides, but I am convinced that we will cope - stated Cezary Tomczyk on TVP Info.

08:04

Talks and Work are Ongoing, No Decision Today Yet," Bogucki on Nawrocki's Washington Visit with a Vatican Stopover
- I wouldn't want to talk about details today, because later there will be questions about whether it actually materialized, whether it happened or not. Certainly, discussions are ongoing, work is in progress - said Zbigniew Bogucki in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News' "Graffiti", when asked about the status of the plan for the President's first visit to Washington with a stopover in the Vatican. - It might be like that [Washington with the Vatican in the background], but as I said, there are no decisions yet today, and it's not fully finalized - he continued. - Of course, regarding the fact that it will be this year, that is clear - he added.

08:05

Tomczyk:

We Will Handle Judicial Reform and Hold Accountable Those Who Committed Crimes During PiS's 8 Years in Power
- I assure you, Madam, and ladies and gentlemen, that within this system, we will function and we will manage both the step-by-step implementation of judicial reform and the accountability of all those individuals who, during the 8 years of the Law and Justice (PiS) government, committed, I am deeply convinced, numerous crimes - stated Cezary Tomczyk on TVP Info.

08:10

Bogucki:

The President Cannot Be Denied the Opportunity to Participate in the European Summit
- I think that this opportunity, this possibility, cannot be denied to the President. It will, of course, be the President's decision at the specific moment, it also depends on the agenda of the summit [...] the closer it gets to the President's obvious prerogatives, such as security, international policy, which is always the case, but also, for example, issues of the judiciary or the rule of law - said Zbigniew Bogucki on Polsat News, when asked if President Nawrocki intends to fly to the European summit.

08:20

Electricity 33% Cheaper? Bogucki: Every Point of Plan 21 Will Be Implemented. Naturally, the President Lacks the Power to Override Parliament.
- Absolutely current. Every point of this Plan 21 [...] will be implemented, this is also partly or largely my task, because it needs to be translated into the language of laws, into the language of presidential initiatives - said Zbigniew Bogucki in Polsat News, when asked if the 33% reduction in electricity bills within 99 days is current. - Already today the first initiative, in the coming days more, and certainly all those that Mr. President spoke about during the campaign will be initiated. Naturally, Mr. President lacks the power to override this in the Sejm - he continued. - We assume that in Poland, even in this government [...], there is elementary common sense to take actions that are good for Poles. If someone questions one of these points of President Nawrocki's Plan 21, let them say which one and why. If they don't question it, they should cooperate with Mr. President - he went on to say.

08:22

Tomczyk:

Cenckiewicz, facing state secrets disclosure charges, now heads BBN. Lawyer Lewandowski Responds: "He is misleading Poles"
- Remember that Mr. Cenckiewicz, who faces prosecutorial charges for revealing state secrets, has now taken the helm of the National Security Bureau (BBN). I think every soldier would want to have people at the head of their state who care about its security - stated Cezary Tomczyk on TVP Info. - If we could imagine the charge of being a spy, I know it's sometimes difficult because intelligence matters are often shrouded in secrecy, then the task of every spy, the primary task, is to steal state secrets of another country and, in the first instance, matters concerning the defense of that country, meaning a potential defensive operation - he continued. - Cenckiewicz, along with a group of people, with Mr. Błaszczak, together, jointly and in concert, in the name of political interest, revealed this data, and that is a fact today, a problem for every Polish soldier, because it simply defies comprehension - added the Deputy Minister of National Defence. Lawyer Bartosz Lewandowski responded to these words on social media: - The Minister is misleading Poles. Prof. Cenckiewicz faces no such charges. The matter concerns FRAGMENTS and ARCHIVAL plans that were not intended for current implementation.

08:30

Bogucki:

The Wind Turbine Act Was Meant to Be a Trap. It's Government Cunning, the President Will Handle It
- This law is such an inept snare, a trap that was meant to be set either for the former President Duda or for the new President of the Republic, Karol Nawrocki - Zbigniew Bogucki said in Polsat News, when asked if President Nawrocki would sign the so-called wind turbine act with the provision on freezing energy prices.

- It's no trap, it's simply the cunning of this government, which, while pushing through what I believe is a bad project concerning wind turbines, a project that was supplemented with a huge number of amendments in the Senate, raises questions about the constitutionality of this law and the sequence of three readings in a situation where, in many places, fundamental issues related to the law are changed, only in the Senate, and of course, something very important has been thrown in, namely protections and consequently lower bills for Poles - he continued.

- President Karol Nawrocki will really manage this, there will be a clear message, but there will also be time to carry out or introduce the changes that are important from the perspective of Poles' wallets, i.e., for these protections to come into effect. That will be on the government's side, but it is, of course, ultimately the President's decision - he added.

08:41

Bogucki:

Żurek Deeply Misrepresents the Truth and Lacks Basic Legal Logic
- Minister Żurek [...] to put it very mildly, as I will use gentle terms, deeply misrepresents the truth and remains outside of any elementary legal logic. If the Minister of Justice says that the principle of the presumption of constitutionality of laws does not apply, it means he is saying that Poland has no system of government and no legal order. This is a disgrace for Minister Żurek - said Zbigniew Bogucki on Polsat News.

10:25

Tusk at the Construction Site of Poland's Largest Railway Tunnel:

A Very Good Day for Polish Railways and Polish Dreams.
"This is a very good day for Polish railways and for Polish dreams, for the dream that everyone in Poland will feel that this is our railway. Our railway, because it will become increasingly accessible to all residents of our homeland, in various parts of our country. It is our railway, because it is our time" - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Małopolska, at the construction site of the largest railway tunnel in Poland. "At this moment, we have undertaken this great challenge so that Poland, after we built, and continue to build, but when the investment peak for expressways and motorways was reached, we became one of the leading countries in Europe in terms of roads, now it is our turn for Polish railways to also become a model for everyone" - he continued. "This is a great undertaking. It's about connecting the entire region; people who live here every day know what a torment it is to get to, for example, Krakow. We are currently implementing a project thanks to which the train journey from Nowy Sącz to Krakow will take an hour, instead of the current 2 hours and 20 minutes, in the best case scenario, even with the fastest trains, but on average it's 2 hours and 40 minutes. This means an absolutely qualitative change in life for tens of thousands of people in this region and for the entire region, its development opportunities" - emphasized the head of government.

10:32

Tusk:

The Goal is to Integrate All Citizens in Poland into a Communication System Enabling Rapid Travel
The goal is to integrate all citizens in Poland into a communication system that allows for rapid travel. Among other things, tomorrow you will also be informed elsewhere in Poland about railway investments in Poland, which will concern cities such as Tarnobrzeg, Stalowa Wola, Jasło, Krosno, and I'm just listing from memory. These are all places where agreements for execution are being signed, or where work is already underway – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Małopolska, at the construction site of the largest railway tunnel in Poland. This is also a moment when we can speak of successes that have a tangible character, felt by people. As a resident of Gdańsk, I can say with great satisfaction that imagine, within two years and a few months, a million more people are traveling on the Warsaw-Gdańsk route than in 2022 – he continued. We will invest PLN 180 billion in railways. We are bringing back to railway life, after 30 years, towns like, for example, Łomża, and there the work is already in full swing, the infrastructure elements are ready – he emphasized.

10:38

Tusk:

It Sounds Unbelievable – In a Year, We'll Transport Half a Billion Passengers by Polish Railways
- In a year, probably sooner, but I'm being cautious, we will transport half a billion passengers by Polish railways. Half a billion passengers in a year. In a year, within 12 months, we will transport more people by our trains than the entire EU has inhabitants combined – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Lesser Poland, at the construction site of the largest railway tunnel in Poland.

10:43

"A Million Words and Practically Zero Deeds." Tusk Attacks PiS, Declares: We Are Building CPK
- Poland has somewhat divided into two ways of thinking about major investments. Some are specialists in resolutions, conferences, and showcases, while others are specialists in actually building. If you seriously consider, even for a moment, what major investment was initiated and completed during the eight years of our predecessors' rule, you will see for yourselves that there were a million words and practically zero deeds. This is the crucial difference; we are building CPK, we have the ambition to build high-speed railways, that famous Y, and this construction has begun - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Małopolska, at the construction site of the largest railway tunnel in Poland. - I agree, perhaps I am a bit weaker than my opponents, my political adversaries, in talking about what we intend to do, but the people, the teams, the companies, all those involved in the projects are much better at the actual work, and that's why, believe me, I don't concern myself too much with draft resolutions. I concern myself, together with the minister and, I believe, all Poles, with the projects we are implementing, including when it comes to railway networks - he continued.

10:48

Wherever He Wants to Obstruct, He Will See Who Rules the Country According to the Constitution," Tusk on Nawrocki
We have a lot to do. Anyone who wants to help, regardless of their political views or position, will be a welcome partner, and I mean this very seriously – stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Małopolska, at the construction site of the largest railway tunnel in Poland. I have had the pleasure, and at times it was a very serious challenge, to cooperate with many presidents. Actually, since the beginning of the Third Republic, and as prime minister, with 3 presidents. This is the 4th president, and with all of them, cohabitation and cooperation were very demanding, sometimes difficult. Different with different ones, but somehow we managed, so wherever the new president wants to help, I will welcome his readiness to cooperate with open arms. Wherever he wants to obstruct, he will see what the constitutional rule means, that is, who governs the country. I will be very consistent in this matter, and if necessary, ruthless – he continued.

11:03

Kidawa-Błońska on the Senate Session:

We Will Consider 7 Laws, Which I Hope Will Be on President Nawrocki’s Desk Tomorrow.
- This is the 40th session of the Senate, we will consider 11 items on its agenda, including 7 laws, which I hope will be on Mr. President Karol Nawrocki’s desk tomorrow. These will be the first laws from the Senate that he will have the chance to sign – said Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska during a press briefing before the Senate session. - I will remind you that we are also waiting for the wind energy bill. We want electricity prices in our country to be lower and to produce as much clean, cheap energy as possible, so we are also waiting for this bill. We will see how Mr. President behaves – she continued.

11:05

Journalist:

If you read all the comments, you'd run out of hair, Tusk replies: I'd rather keep the hair I have left
- I wanted to ask you, why are Civic Coalition (KO) politicians so inactive when it comes to our region? We know the area we are in, and judging even by these announcements of your appearance here today, if you were to read those comments, you'd probably run out of a bit of hair on your head if you read everything. Perhaps it would be worth showing a bit more activity here from KO, the ruling coalition, from these politicians, to show these people that you are not devils incarnate? - asked Józek Budacz, a journalist from Limanowa Television. Prime Minister Donald Tusk replied: - I hope your prediction doesn't come true. I'd rather keep the rest of the hair on my head. If I were to worry about all the comments, I would probably make some mistakes sometimes if I worried about the positive ones, or perhaps I would be sad if I worried about the negative ones. It's normal in public life, a normal situation, people are critical of the government, I understand, but it's good that you reminded me of Kłodne, because okay, I take this opinion on my shoulders, on my chest, that we are perhaps sometimes too absent, too inactive here, but I was here when there was a need. - Not to brag, but when that dramatic landslide occurred, I was there immediately, I made the decision within 2 hours that the state would help 100% in rebuilding all those homes that the mud and water washed away from the slope, and we did it within a year and a half, two years, everything was either rebuilt or built, rather in a different location, due to the risks associated with that landslide - he added.

11:08

Kidawa-Błońska:

I'd Really Like the President to Cooperate with the Government. I Hope He Won't Look for Enemies Where There Are None
- I'd really like the President to fulfill his duties entrusted to him by the Constitution, meaning he should stand guard over the Constitution and the law in our country and cooperate with the government. The President's task is to ensure the quality of life for all Poles, so I hope the President will act in accordance with the Constitution and seek common solutions, rather than looking for enemies where there are none - said Małgorzata Kidawa-Błońska during a press briefing before the Senate session.

President Nawrocki Appoints Ministers [LIST]
Head of the Presidential Chancellery - Zbigniew Bogucki Head of the Presidential Cabinet - Paweł Szefernaker Deputy Head of the Presidential Chancellery - Adam Andruszkiewicz Head of the National Security Bureau (BBN) - Sławomir Cenckiewicz Head of the Bureau of International Policy - Marcin Przydacz Secretary of State - Wojciech Kolarski Deputy Head of the Presidential Cabinet - Jarosław Dębowski Undersecretary of State - Rafał Leśkiewicz Undersecretary of State - Agnieszka Jędrzak Undersecretary of State - Karol Rabenda Undersecretary of State - Mateusz Kotecki

11:20

Przydacz on Nawrocki's Foreign Policy:

Relations with the United States will certainly be a priority.
- The President's activity has already begun, even during this short period between the election and the full inauguration, because as President-elect, he received a lot of congratulations, but also received phone calls. And these calls, as is used in diplomacy, are also utilized to advance one's agenda. For instance, the conversation with President Trump or President Zelensky. These discussions naturally also served to address security policy. The President has already been to Brussels, meeting with the Secretary General of NATO - stated Marcin Przydacz on the program “Sygnały dnia” on PR1, when asked about Nawrocki's foreign policy activities. - Relations with the United States, our main ally, will certainly be a priority. Moreover, the fact that President Trump sent a special delegation from Washington to the inauguration also shows that for Americans, this relationship at the presidential level is important in some sense - he continued. - The very presence of the American delegation shows that President Trump is interested in these relations, and we will certainly build on this and strive to travel to the United States as soon as possible. However, it is known that there are also other directions, and we will try to be active in the Central European region - he concluded.

11:21

Przydacz:

We Support Ukraine, But We Also Set Conditions
Regarding Ukraine, the President has stated on many occasions that in terms of military and humanitarian support, if the need arises, Ukraine can count on Polish assistance because it is fighting an aggressor, fighting a neo-imperial, neo-colonial Russia. [...] So, the sharp edge of our policy concerning Russia will certainly be very visible. On the Ukrainian issue, we have discussed, the President has spoken with President Zelensky, there are many positive elements, but of course, issues that are important to Poles today have also emerged. This is also spoken about loudly; these are matters of a historical nature - stated Marcin Przydacz on the program "Sygnały dnia" on PR1, when asked about the President's stance on relations with Ukraine. - We understand, we help, we are with you in this fight, but remember that Poles also have certain expectations, and one of these expectations is, for example, the issue of exhumations, the issue of restoring the memory of these individuals. And we will not give up on this; on the contrary, we will strive to raise it, to push through various instruments. I am not against conditionality in foreign policy, Madam Editor. After all, it is something completely natural - concluded Marcin Przydacz - he continued. - Donald Tusk talks about unconditional support for Ukraine in every single aspect. And we say: we support Ukraine, but we also set certain conditions, even concerning Ukraine itself, because if it wants to join the European Union someday, and here President Nawrocki, even in his conversation with Mentzen, as you may recall, said: "it would be good if Ukraine someday in the future were part of the broadly understood West” - Przydacz concluded.

11:38

Nawrocki to His Ministers: I'm Not Inviting You to Celebrate My Presidency or Your Positions, But to Work Hard for Poland
- I have been observing this team that we managed to create together, which we have built, and which today begins its hard work for Poland, because I am not inviting you to anything else, I am not inviting you to celebrate my presidency or your ministerial positions, but I am inviting all of you from today to work hard for the Republic, because Poland is waiting for it - said President Karol Nawrocki during the ceremony of appointing the leadership of his Chancellery.

11:43

Nawrocki on the Common Traits of His Ministers and Their First Task:

Each of You is a Polish Patriot.
- When I look at this entire group, despite each of you being different, you all share the qualities that led us to collaborate. Each of you, my dear ministers, is a Polish patriot. Yes, you recognize absolute belonging to the national community of the Polish state, and I have seen this in myself over decades of acquaintance, or a dozen, or a few years, or in the recent months of a difficult election campaign – said President Karol Nawrocki during the ceremony of appointing the leadership of his chancellery. - This is your shared trait, absolute belonging to our national community; you all also feel the first task, the first task, which is to serve our national community, and that is what I ask of you as the President of Poland, that this does not change, and I know with peace of heart that it certainly will not – he continued. - The second trait that unites all of you is that you are people of hard work, and I take full responsibility for these words – he went on to say.

11:55

Nawrocki on Szefernaker and Dębowski:

I am convinced they will form the best duo in the history of the KPRP.
- I am very pleased, ladies and gentlemen, that what happened during the election campaign, this acquaintance forged through hard work with Paweł Szefernaker, the head of my election campaign, the head of the chancellery, will be continued in the Chancellery of the President of Poland. This is the best proof that one can fight for Polish freedom, for Polish democracy, and continue this even after the campaign clamor - said President Karol Nawrocki during the ceremony of appointing the leadership of his chancellery. - As I have said many times, Paweł Szefernaker, ladies and gentlemen, is a politician of the new generation, a very calm person, and this calmness of Paweł Szefernaker as the head of the president's chancellery will be needed by all of us for the next 5 years - he continued. - The deputy to Mr. Minister Szefernaker will be Mr. Minister Jarosław Dębowski, ladies and gentlemen, although the public opinion has not yet been convinced of this, he is a man of very hard work, a great scholar, and a person without whom I certainly could not stand before you today. He is a man who has worked hard for Poland, both at the Museum of the Second World War and at the Institute of National Remembrance - he went on to say. - I am convinced that together with Paweł Szefernaker, they will form the best duo in the history of the Chancellery of the President of the Republic of Poland - he added.

12:01

Nawrocki on Kolarski:

A Symbolic and Ideological Link to President Duda's Chancellery.
"He is not only a symbolic but also an ideological link to President Andrzej Duda's Chancellery. This is an expression of recognition for President Andrzej Duda's entire presidency, but above all for Minister Wojciech Kolarski's hard work for Poland over the last 10 years. We cannot waste this work for Poland in the new chancellery," said President Karol Nawrocki during the ceremony appointing the leadership of his chancellery.

14:22

Sea of Hate for Hołownia and His Allies, Zero Factual Basis. Gramatyka on prosecutorial error.
And that's all there is to the "electoral irregularities." A sea of hate directed at Szymon Hołownia and his people, with absolutely zero factual support. A massacre... - wrote Michał Gramatyka on social media.

18:09

Bill Project:

I Demand a Return to Sustainable Development." Nawrocki Signs Legislative Initiative on the "YES to CPK
- The CPK, in its traditional form, also gave all of us hope that a flywheel for our economy, our economic engine, was appearing on the horizon. Yes, 35 years after the fall of the communist system, despite the great success of Polish entrepreneurs and workers, we are today in an economic trap that we must overcome precisely through major investments, our aspirations, our dreams - stated President Karol Nawrocki in Kalisz. - To compete with other Western European economies in order to realize great projects. Our hopes and dreams are encapsulated in the CPK, which was meant to build the Polish budget, our economic and industrial strength, and Poland as a trade and transport hub in Europe. Most importantly, this shared success of our future and the benefits derived from it were to be distributed according to sustainable development, because there is one Poland: there is the Poland of great agglomerations, the Poland of Warsaw and Gdańsk, but there is also the Poland of Kalisz and other medium-sized cities, small towns, and the Poland of the counties - he continued. - In this project, I unambiguously demand a return to sustainable development and that the CPK not be a wheel without spokes, but a wheel with all its spokes, and that the city of Kalisz not be run over by the high-speed railway - he emphasized.

18:12

Nawrocki:

I Will Never Agree to Eliminate Medium-Sized Cities and Rural Poland from the Distribution of All Goods We Earn Together
- As President of the Republic of Poland, I will never agree to eliminate medium-sized cities, and also rural Poland, from the distribution of all the goods that we earn together. Yes, Poland is also rich because of your work, the work of local entrepreneurs, your taxes, and this must be reflected in projects concerning our future. We must also ensure that entrepreneurs, who have been waiting in many Polish medium-sized cities to start work on the CPK, are given this opportunity - stated President Karol Nawrocki in Kalisz.

18:13

"First It Was Destroyed and Eliminated, Then Scaled Back, Finally Delayed'. Nawrocki on Government's CPK Plan
- Indeed, the CPK project, proposed and currently being implemented with difficulty by the government, we must realize, was first destroyed and eliminated entirely, then scaled back, and finally delayed - stated President Karol Nawrocki in Kalisz.

18:16

Nawrocki Appeals to Hołownia and Tusk:

I Will Not Tolerate 200,000 Signatures Being Thrown in the Trash.
- I will not tolerate 200,000 signatures being thrown in the trash or not engaging in dialogue regarding them, and I count on both Marshal Hołownia and Prime Minister Tusk, as well as the entire Polish government, to engage in a clear, methodical, and concrete discussion about the project that the President of Poland is presenting, but which was also submitted by 200,000 citizens of the Polish state - stated President Karol Nawrocki in Kalisz.

18:21

Nawrocki:

MP Matysiak is with us. There are things that unite us
- I am very pleased, and this is particularly important to me as the President of Poland, that MP Paulina Matysiak is with us. This shows a path of action towards matters that are important for Polish women and men. Yes, as a nation, we must be able to discuss things with each other. Despite the fact that the MP likely votes differently in many votes than her colleagues from PiS, despite the fact that I would probably disagree with the MP on many issues, and the MP with me, there are things that unite us. I deeply believe that we will manage to separate Poland's development, security, and demographic problems from the daily political noise – stated President Karol Nawrocki in Kalisz.

19:53

Nowacka:

A Change to the Teachers' Charter Will Soon Be on Nawrocki's Desk
- We are waiting [for the decision regarding electricity prices]. A change to the Teachers' Charter, long-awaited by teachers, and the abolition of the so-called Czarnkowski Hour, or a second Teachers' Charter regulating, among other things, how teachers who work longer are rewarded, will soon appear on Mr. Nawrocki's desk. This is a good and necessary bill. Even PiS did not vote against it - stated Barbara Nowacka in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News' "Gość Wydarzeń".

19:59

Nowacka on Nawrocki:

Let the President Stop Acting Like a Star and Sign It, Because That’s His Job.
- Let them stop dreaming and get to work. The storytelling is over; they need to make a decision. People are waiting for frozen energy prices. It needs to be done; let them do it. On the other hand, PiS's phobia regarding renewable energy has greatly harmed the Polish economy and Poland's energy security. It’s high time they pulled themselves together and acted boldly, so let the President stop acting like a star and sign it, because that’s his job – stated Barbara Nowacka on Polsat News’s “Gość Wydarzeń”.

20:02

Nowacka:

They are doing everything to continue having no coalition potential
- Do you know what's most interesting? That they are doing everything to continue having no coalition potential, and this was evident in Nawrocki's speech, in the fact that he completely disregarded Kaczyński. That is, those bulldogs under those carpets are already stirring like mad - stated Barbara Nowacka in "Gość Wydarzeń" (Guest of Events) on Polsat News.

20:08

Wind Turbine Act a Trap for the President? Hennig-Kloska: Politics is a trap within a trap, let him be careful not to break his legs
- Politics is a trap within a trap, one could say, so let the president be careful not to break his legs while jumping over these traps - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska in an interview with Piotr Marciniak on TVN24's "Fakty po Faktach", when asked if the wind turbine act is a trap, referring to Zbigniew Bogucki's morning statement. The current head of the Presidential Chancellery described the so-called wind turbine act as an "ambush", which President Nawrocki will handle.

20:16

Hennig-Kloska:

The Presidential Palace is not a place for propaganda. If we want lower prices, energy policy must be based on RES
- If the President truly wants to solve the problems of Polish women and men, if the President takes his office seriously, then, I apologize, the Presidential Palace is not a place for propaganda, it is not a place for repeating fake news. It is a place to seriously consider state policy - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24. - Energy policy, if we want to have lower energy prices, must be based on renewable sources, and here we must also take into account that solar energy and wind energy complement each other over 12 months, and this is the mix we must build - she continued. - It's impossible; if PiS and Konfederacja continue to block this energy development, we will simply go through the transformation process longer, and it will be more difficult for the Polish economy - she added.

20:21

Hennig-Kloska:

If the President Vetoes the Wind Energy Act, He Will Expose Us to Rising Inflation
- If the president vetoes this [wind energy] act, he will expose us to rising inflation, because if we read the reports from the NBP, still led by a politician from the Law and Justice camp, we will clearly notice that the reason inflation is falling today, that we have brought inflation down close to the desired inflation target, is, among other things, a result of keeping energy prices in check - Paulina Hennig-Kloska said on TVN24. - If the president vetoes this act, then from October we face rising energy prices, but also a significant inflationary stimulus - she continued.

20:25

Hennig-Kloska:

I have no intention of arguing with Minister Motyka
- I have no intention of arguing with Minister Motyka, I intend to cooperate closely. That's what Minister Motyka and I agreed on. We have a very good practice of working together effectively over the last 1.5 years, soon to be two years, and this cooperation worked excellently at the Ministry of Climate and Environment. That's what we've agreed to continue - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24.

20:29

Hennig-Kloska on Nawrocki's Promises:

The Campaign is Over, It's Time to Face Reality.
- This is precisely the first clash. Yesterday, after taking the oath, the President made a great many election promises. Unfortunately [...] the campaign is over, it's time to face reality, and very soon it will turn out that the President has no idea how to implement these promises, nor does he have a majority for them - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24.

20:33

Hennig-Kloska:

I regret Nawrocki lacked the will to fight when the Green Deal was negotiated under PiS rule
- I regret that Mr. Karol Nawrocki lacked the will to fight when the Green Deal was negotiated during the rule of Law and Justice – said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24.

- He was within the Law and Justice environment, because shortly thereafter he took over supervision of the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN). So he could have said 'stop', because everyone is shouting loudly now, and the best times for negotiating the shape of the Green Deal were during the rule of Law and Justice, when Mateusz Morawiecki stood at the head of that government – she continued, after the host pointed out that the current president was not involved in politics at the time, at least officially.

Hennig-Kloska:

I Advocate for All Coalition Leaders to Join the Government. Deputy Prime Minister Positions for Czarzasty and Hołownia
- No, I absolutely do not think the Prime Minister is incompetent. I believe we have done a great job. However, what we primarily need to improve is the management of the coalition within the government. I am an advocate for all coalition leaders to join the government and form a presidium there - Paulina Hennig-Kloska said on TVN24. - [Deputy Prime Minister position] for Włodzimierz Czarzasty and Szymon Hołownia. Furthermore, I am also in favor of improving government communication. This is extremely important; we are certainly losing to our opposition on this front - she continued. - This position has been agreed upon. Poland 2050 will have a Deputy Prime Minister and a Deputy Marshal [of the Sejm] starting in November - she further stated. - Just as [Szymon Hołownia] said, he would be ready to join the government if all leaders actually entered and formed a presidium - she added.

Hennig-Kloska:

Hołownia Guided Poland Through a Potentially Significant Political Crisis, Paying a Steep Price
- Despite everything, Szymon Hołownia is still the best Speaker I see in the plenary hall. [...] Moreover, he has now guided the Polish state through a potentially significant political crisis, and he paid a steep price for it - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24. - No [it's not about talks with Kaczyński], I mean yesterday and the fact that the transfer of power in the Presidential Palace occurred safely - she continued.

Hennig-Kloska 'Gave an Hour' to the Director of State Forests? Minister of Culture and National Heritage: That's a Lie
- No, that's a lie, we had a very good conversation, we are still in contact today, the director truly heard my thanks from me for a few processes, I said what bothered me. We need to work more closely with the State Forests to complete these important and socially anticipated processes, and that's what I agreed with the new director - said Paulina Hennig-Kloska on TVN24, when asked about reports that she "gave an hour" to the director of the State Forests, handing him a termination notice.

"I Am Not Ruling It Out": Zgorzelski on the Formation of a New Political Project
– But I will surprise you, because here I will say that I know many politicians, both in Civic Platform and in the Polish People's Party, who are close to the project of mirroring the European People's Party in the European Parliament – stated Piotr Zgorzelski in “Question of the Day” on TVP INFO, when asked about a potential joint start with Civic Platform in the next parliamentary elections. – […] I am not ruling it out [a new political project], madam editor, although I believe that if we are talking about “Gazeta Wyborcza,” which was pushing us into a common garden, a so-called common list, had we allowed ourselves to be pushed then, PiS would be governing. We stood our ground; with Poland 2050, we created a project achieving 14%, which brought victory to the democratic side. So, we also ask for a little trust in politicians – he continued.

Zgorzelski on the Partnership Unions Act:

That’s an overstatement, but we have started discussions.
  • A good meeting took place between the leaders of The Left and the Polish People's Party, namely Marshal Czarzasty and President Kosiniak-Kamysz, with Deputy Prime Minister Gawkowski and, as they say, my humble self, in attendance. And there is probably a light at the end of the tunnel, whatever that may mean, because some politicians saw a light at the end of the tunnel after meeting with Kaczyński, only to later collide with an armored personnel carrier. Meanwhile, this meeting may result in good solutions in this area - stated Piotr Zgorzelski in “Question of the Day” on TVP INFO, when asked about the partnership unions act.
  • That’s an overstatement, but we have started discussions - he continued, when asked if the leaders had reached an agreement.
  • I think it’s definitely not a year - he replied, when asked about the predicted timeline for the end of the discussions.

Zgorzelski on the Relationship Between the President and the Government:

It's Not an Opponent That Unites Us, But the Program We Must Implement...
- In my opinion, yes [Karol Nawrocki will strive to overthrow Donald Tusk's government], because referring to the first question, ambition is one of the traits that drives not only him, but every person who wants to achieve something, including in politics. Therefore, Karol Nawrocki is a candidate who, even if he doesn't have such a political task, and I believe he does, would do everything because he holds very radical views, very much against this part of the political scene that governs today. Therefore, he would do everything and will do everything to ensure that PiS wins the elections in 2027 so effectively that they take power, because let's remember that they also won the elections in 2023. They just lack coalition-building capacity, they didn't have it and don't have it - stated Piotr Zgorzelski in "Pytanie dnia" on TVP INFO. - It's not an opponent that unites us, but the program we must implement, and there are still more than two years to do it - he countered the question of whether the new president's activity could "paradoxically cement the coalition". - He said exactly [Donald Tusk today] what is literally written in the Constitution. The prerogatives of the president are very clearly written in the Constitution. They were initiated yesterday when the president took command of the armed forces, because the commander-in-chief of the armed forces is the President of the Republic, who exercises this command through the Minister of National Defence - he continued.

Zgorzelski on PSL's Strategy:

We Have at Least Two Scenarios for the Upcoming 2027 Elections.
[…] The Polish People's Party was, is, and will be. Since '89, well-meaning commentators have been writing off the PSL, and yet it always gets into the Sejm. Meanwhile, parties that are promoted, have great results, disappear after one or two terms. So, really, thank you for your concern – stated Piotr Zgorzelski in "Pytanie dnia" on TVP INFO, when asked about the future of the PSL. His popularity [referring to Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz's popularity with PSL support] will break through. Believe me. The Polish People's Party celebrates its 130th anniversary this year. We had a beautiful event in Rzeszów, and we have at least two scenarios for the upcoming elections in 2027, as well as for any potential early elections – he continued. Forgive me, but unfortunately, Ms. Editor, I will not reveal these scenarios because they are confidential and concern the party leadership. However, regarding the data shown by today's polls, they are very dangerous because they clearly show that the right side is capable of consolidating, and our side, unfortunately, is not – Piotr Zgorzelski concluded.
