Nawrocki Hints at a Veto Again:

I Will Make a Decision, Not Tolerating Any Censorship.

Michał Lubowicki

- I will break a certain rule that I try to follow, which is not to talk about what decision I will make before a bill lands on my desk, because I don't know what will ultimately land on that desk. But in general, I can talk about what I think about the proposal in relation to the DSA and public debate, but also parliamentary debate - said President Karol Nawrocki during the ECR Young Leaders Congress event in Lublin.

"We Are a Nation Attached to Freedom"

- We are a nation that is very attached to freedom. […] I speak not only as president, but also as the subject of many attacks, who should have an interest in regulating certain operational mechanisms through the DSA. On the other hand, there is the sovereign, freedom-loving spirit of Poles, to which we are deeply attached - he continued.

"Correct Premise," but "Over-regulation is a Bad Solution"

- There is a correct premise regarding the attempt to regulate harmful tendencies in the online space. But often, the bills that land on my desk are over-regulations related to European law. […] Over-regulation is a bad solution - he assessed.

"I Don't Know Who Will Decide on Pushing the Button."

He continued: - I wonder if giving the decision and the button for what is correct and what is incorrect to an official designated by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Poland - regardless of who the current Prime Minister is, and at some point there will be another Prime Minister - and I wonder if it is consistent with the policy of digital platforms or the government to state directly that marriage is a union of a woman and a man, in accordance with the Polish constitution.

- I don't know who will decide on pushing the button, what is correct and what is not correct. So, I see such threats around this law, as a person deeply attached to freedom - he emphasized.

"I Will Make a Decision in Accordance with the Polish Gene of Freedom"

- We don't know what will ultimately land on my desk. […] I will make a decision in accordance with the Polish gene of freedom and without tolerating any new ACTA or any censorship, because we are a nation of freedom - he summarized.
