PiS MEPs Present a Gift to the Prime Minister in Front of the Chancellery of the Prime Minister:

One of the Biggest Scandals Since 1989.
- This is one of the biggest scandals since 1989, because it involves the expenditure of public, European funds senselessly, on luxury items, without control, without checks, without verification, to people who are often associated with KO activists or are even their spouses. Such a scandal, revealed online by the government itself, which published a map showing the co-financing, has never been seen in the history of the Third Polish Republic - said Tobiasz Bocheński at a press briefing in front of the Chancellery of the Prime Minister.
- We learned yesterday that PLN 400,000 is going towards non-alcoholic beer in Wejcherowo, PLN 400,000 to a company registered at an address where there is a swingers' club. PLN 400,000 to the "Herring and Vodka Ministry" in Piotrków Trybunalski and Radomsko. This is not only a matter that we will investigate, thoroughly examine using parliamentary inspections and reports to the prosecutor's office, but also, when the government websites finally get back online, we will be checking both the National Court Register and the map of these expenditures to identify all beneficiaries of these funds - said the PiS MEP.
- And we will find the answer to the question that half of Poland is asking - whether the individuals who received co-financing under this PLN 1.2 billion are linked to donations to KO or to Rafał Trzaskowski's campaign - he added.
As Bocheński said: - Starting Monday, an operation will commence aimed at thoroughly clarifying this matter, all connections, dependencies, decision-making issues, not only those of the KO MPs from the spotlight, like the richest, as some media report, KO MP who sees nothing wrong with his wife receiving money for a restaurant, but we will also be checking those local voivodes, local councillors in Poland.

Nawrocki:

The President of Poland Today Clearly States He Stands with Polish Farmers
Yes, today Poland won, and today the President of Poland is clearly stating that he stands with Polish farmers – stated President Karol Nawrocki during a meeting with farmers in West Pomerania. – I am also here to say that not only the countryside is for Karol, but Karol is also for the farmers, and they are the Polish countryside, and this will not change for the next 5 years – he continued. – Poland will not be safe if it is not food-secure, and it is the Polish farmer, like a soldier in the army, the Polish farmer who is responsible for Poland's food security – he added.

"We Will Not Give Up Polish Land": Nawrocki on Moratorium Extension
- Yes, today we stand on the land from which the main impulse of Polish farmers originated, stating that we will not give up Polish land, and for this impulse from 2015, I thank you. After 2016, it was possible to introduce solutions that defended this entire process against the sale of Polish land. In the years 2016, and this is guaranteed until 2026, we managed to halt this detrimental process on a significant scale,” stated President Karol Nawrocki during a meeting with farmers in West Pomerania. - Thanks to you in West Pomerania, who paid a specific price for this, because many of you were arrested and, in a sense, persecuted, it was possible to halt this process. However, this law on the protection of the Polish countryside already calls upon the Polish parliamentary majority and the Polish government, in accordance with my election promises, to extend the moratorium on the ban of Polish land sales, and I signed this today,” he continued.

Nawrocki Proposes a Resolution Regarding the Mercosur Agreement:

A Joint Commitment of the Entire Political Class.
- Yes, I want a joint commitment of the entire political class, of all parliamentary circles, to be inscribed in the preamble of the law on shaping the Polish agricultural system, and thus into the Polish agricultural constitution. This commitment will give us the potential to react to threats stemming from the EU agreement with Mercosur countries and threats arising from unequal competition from Ukraine - stated President Karol Nawrocki during a meeting with farmers in West Pomerania. - I am reaching out, beyond politics, to all circles in the Polish parliament and to the Polish government, so that we adopt a law with a new preamble that will give us, both the government and the president, a chance to react in situations where the EU agreement with Mercosur countries comes into force or when we start to be flooded again by unequal competition from Ukraine - he continued.

12:09

Nawrocki on the need to build a coalition of states against the EU-Mercosur agreement:

The President of the Republic of Poland is not there to serve German economic interests.
- I hope that our partners beyond the borders of the Republic of Poland, within the EU, will follow the same path and we will build a coalition of states that are against signing the EU agreement with Mercosur countries, which I will consistently remind everyone of on the international stage, because the President of the Republic of Poland is not there to serve German economic and financial interests - stated President Karol Nawrocki during a meeting with farmers in West Pomerania.

Kaczyński:

Supreme Audit Office Statement Only Confirms the Foundation of the Current Government's Campaign Was a Lie
The scandal surrounding the KPO affair shows what kind of people are ruling us. And the Supreme Audit Office's statement only confirms that the foundation of the current government's campaign was a lie. Even if something improper occurred during our governance, we reacted to it ourselves. Today, evil is the norm, entirely tolerated by this government - wrote Jarosław Kaczyński on social media.

Kierwiński asked about the Trump-Nawrocki meeting:

I will encourage the President so that it’s not for a selfie, but for solving Poles’ real problems.
- It is probably natural that there are contacts between Poland and the American side. I just hope that if a meeting takes place, it will have a real impact on Poles, that something will be resolved for Poles within the framework of this meeting, and here I will strongly encourage the President in this regard, so that the meeting is not for a selfie, but a meeting for solving Poles’ real problems – stated Marcin Kierwiński at a press briefing.

Tusk Addresses KPO Affair, Promises Consequences:

The Fact That PiS Lies and Manipulates on This Matter Will Be No Excuse.
- Billions of euros from the KPO are crucial for Poland's major development projects. We have invested too much effort in unblocking them to allow anyone to squander them. Anyone who made mistakes will face (or has already faced) consequences. Regardless of their position or party affiliation. And the fact that PiS lies and manipulates on this matter will be no excuse. For anyone - wrote Prime Minister Donald Tusk on social media.
