- The Polish army is gaining the capability to see through clouds, regardless of the time of day or weather, in such a way as to be able to observe enemy forces and to conduct precise targeting, meaning aiming at the highest possible level, which is a world-class level - said Cezary Tomczyk in an interview with Grzegorz Kępka on Polsat News' "Graffiti", when asked about images from the Polish satellite.
- 25 cm, which is the size of an A4 sheet of paper, is the resolution of this satellite. This means we are able to observe everything from space at any time of day or night, in any weather, with an accuracy of up to 25 cm on the Earth's surface. These are the capabilities of Poland's first military satellite today, one of three that have already been contracted by this government - he continued.
- This is an absolute Copernican revolution, there is no doubt about it, because the Polish army has not had such capabilities until now. [...] The satellites that have been put into orbit [...] are a sovereign capability of the Republic of Poland, meaning all red buttons, plugs, and capabilities are in Poland, just as the service center is in Poland - he went on to say.
08:09
- No [it is not a failure], it is a certain consequence of actions, and let's remember that because Poland declared from the very beginning that it has no intention of sending troops to Ukraine - said Cezary Tomczyk on Polsat News, when asked about Poland's absence from the peace talks on Ukraine in Great Britain.
08:11
Kierwiński:
Poland is Considered Among the Victors of the Migration and Asylum Pact Discussions
- As Poland, we are generally considered among the European countries as one of the biggest winners in this discussion about the migration and asylum pact - said Marcin Kierwiński on “Gość Radia Zet”.
- We have delivered 100% of what we agreed upon with Poles and 100% of what we promised. Prime Minister Donald Tusk spoke about this – that there will be no relocation of immigrants and no relocation - Marcin Kierwiński continued.
08:16
Tomczyk on Duda and Zelenskyy:
A Meeting Simply Should Have Happened.
- For us, the relationship with Ukraine should be one of the most important [...]. I believe that a meeting simply should have happened here. On what terms, let the presidents of both countries decide. I believe this is primarily for President Zelenskyy and President Duda to determine, but I believe that good will is most important here. From our Polish, strategic point of view, victory or a good peace for Ukraine is a matter of state interest - said Cezary Tomczyk on Polsat News.
- The presidents of Poland and Ukraine simply should meet, this is quite obvious. Both Lech Kaczyński, Bronisław Komorowski, and Andrzej Duda conducted a very active policy in this regard. Duda, de facto, is somewhat like Andrzej Duda at a certain stage. He probably still has a lot to learn, because it seems that this relationship is not that important to him - he continued.
08:23
- Poland makes purchases from places that primarily enable us to build capabilities, but for us, the first choice [...] is purchasing in Poland - said Cezary Tomczyk on Polsat News, when asked about diversifying military purchases following American declarations.
- I have no problem with purchases overseas if they build capabilities for Poland. [...] The F-35 aircraft, the most modern fighter jet in the world, can only be purchased in the United States - he continued.
- Our relationship with the United States is truly exceptional. When the United States' security strategy was presented, which also caused and continues to cause considerable controversy, and rightly so, Poland is mentioned in the statements of American politicians as one of three countries, after Israel and South Korea, and Poland is today the closest ally of the United States - he went on to say.
08:30
- We are in ongoing contact, and I even have an important conversation today with an important representative of the White House administration - said Marcin Przydacz in an interview with Maciej Kluczka on Poranek TOK FM.
When pressed about who it concerns, he replied: - Please allow me to work diplomatically, not just in the media. But yes, if this conversation takes place, we will certainly talk about it. I am also going to Washington in the near future, so these Polish-American understandings will continue.
08:33
Szłapka on the new urgent cryptocurrency bill:
Not even a comma.
- We’re not changing even a comma [in the new cryptocurrency bill that the government will deal with today]. Because it’s a necessary bill, it’s urgent, and there will be another veto... In my opinion, a very serious one. The veto was a very serious mistake, also from the perspective of state security, and there will be another opportunity to work through it in parliament – stated Adam Szłapka on TVP Info.
08:35
- Next week, I plan to visit Washington with my colleagues. It will concern various topics, including security matters. Although I won't hide it, one of the topics will also be Poland's participation in the G20, which is the significant outcome of the September 3rd visit - said Marcin Przydacz on TOK FM morning program.
08:38
Tomczyk on possible scenarios regarding military conscription:
If at some stage the government decides...
"First of all, let's remember that military conscription has not been abolished, only suspended. [...] Secondly, let's remember that as long as there is a situation where, within the framework of voluntary basic military service, which is taking place, we have an adequate number of volunteers, we do not need to return to this discussion," said Cezary Tomczyk in Polsat News, when asked about the reintroduction of compulsory basic military service.
"Of course, as I said, conscription is suspended. If at some stage the government decides that its reinstatement is necessary, then that is exactly what will happen. At this stage, where we are, there is no such discussion," he continued.
08:44
Tomczyk on the lack of state control over cryptocurrencies:
This is very dangerous from the perspective of every Polish citizen.
- Cryptocurrencies today are beyond any state control, and Russia, Russian services, but also the mafia, are using cryptocurrencies for cashless transactions in a way to bypass, for example, special services - said Cezary Tomczyk on Polsat News.
- This is very dangerous, primarily from the perspective of every Polish citizen, who must take into account that a saboteur [...] can use these funds, cryptocurrencies, in a way unnoticed by the state, if we do not quickly introduce a law that regulates this - he continued.
- We want to bring this law back into legal circulation, if not today, then in the coming days, obviously, we need these solutions - he further stated.
08:45
- We would like to discuss this as part of deregulation [another proposal to reduce the health contribution], but this also naturally requires a discussion among all coalition parties, because it is one of those topics that needs to be ironed out, as there must be a parliamentary majority - stated Adam Szłapka on TVP Info.
08:47
- This will be a proposal from the Left [regarding cadastral tax], a parliamentary bill. According to my information, there is no agreement within the government at this stage, so it will not be a government project - stated Adam Szłapka on TVP Info.
08:50
Przydacz Explains Why They Aren't Publicized:
There Were Phone Calls Between Duda and Trump.
- Yes, there were phone calls, of course - said Marcin Przydacz on TOK FM's Morning Show, when asked if there had been direct telephone contact between the Presidents of Poland and the United States between September 3rd and today.
- There is an exchange of information, an exchange of correspondence, there are phone calls. Please, truly, do not worry about this contact - he assured.
When pressed as to why the Presidential Chancellery does not publicize this on its website or social media, he replied: - Perhaps because the benefits of these conversations, in the context of security policy, are far from our expectations. It is known that for these conversations to be effective, they must be conducted somewhat in silence.
- And secondly, as we all know, Poland approached the 28-point plan very critically - he added.
When asked again if any conversation had occurred between Duda and Trump, he responded: - There are phone calls. Truly, please absolutely do not worry about it.
08:52
Kierwiński on Politicians Unconvinced by Tusk Regarding Cryptocurrency Regulations:
A Sign of Stupidity and Lack of Reason.
- They, instead of listening and reflecting, are only and exclusively capable of laughing. But that is a sign of stupidity and lack of reason. The information that Donald Tusk presented at this meeting was very strong information. It spoke about the connection between what is related to the cryptocurrency industry, also with specific companies and the issues of the operation of Russian criminal groups, Russian special services. If that doesn't impress any Polish politician, it means that they are either intellectually unprepared to fulfill any state roles, or that they are guided by the doctrine: the worse for Poland, read: for the government, the better for us - said Marcin Kierwiński in “Gość Radia Zet”.
08:53
- It will be adopted by the government today and submitted once again. Obviously [it will be the identical bill] because it's good - said Marcin Kierwiński in “Gość Radia Zet”.
09:08
Kierwiński on Presidential Contacts with Zelensky:
I Didn’t Think I’d Be Praising Duda.
- I’m wondering how it came to be that the topic of President Zelensky inviting the Polish President and saying he’s open to coming here is some kind of news. This should be something normal. During President Duda’s term, I didn’t think I’d be praising President Duda, but these contacts with the President of Ukraine were something normal – said Marcin Kierwiński on “Gość Radia Zet”.
09:14
- We are in ongoing contact with the Ukrainian side. We are discussing the possibility of a meeting, a specific date. Yesterday, President Zelenskyy indeed publicly expressed his readiness to come to Warsaw, thus responding positively to the invitation extended by President Duda - said Marcin Przydacz in the TOK FM morning show.
- I believe this meeting can happen relatively quickly, but as with any presidential engagement, a convenient date for both sides needs to be agreed upon. In recent days, and I think for the next few days, I will be primarily working on this - he indicated.
- Although, as we all know, not only the date is important in the context of this conversation, but also its content and specific agreements, both in the area of regional security policy and bilateral matters that are on the table, on the agenda of relations between Warsaw and Kyiv. We want to achieve some progress in these difficult matters as well - he continued.
09:26
Przydacz on when Nawrocki might meet the Foreign Minister:
Perhaps then Sikorski will stop attacking the President so aggressively.
- I think a meeting with Minister Sikorski will happen, but we were rather planning such a meeting because it will also concern the paralysis of the Polish foreign service, which Minister Sikorski caused, and I think the holiday period or post-holiday period... - said Marcin Przydacz on TOK FM's Morning Show.
- Probably post-holiday, when perhaps the emotions will also subside somewhat and Minister Sikorski will stop attacking the Presidential Palace so aggressively. Perhaps the holiday atmosphere will calm his emotions, and then he will be more inclined to compromise, because this compromise is possible, and we are open to it - he stated.
- Only Minister Sikorski must want to return to the good tradition that functioned for 30 years of the Third Polish Republic, which he wants to break with recently, being unable to agree with either President Duda or, as it seems, President Nawrocki - he emphasized.
11:26
Sasin:
There is no conflict in PiS
- There is no war. [...] There is no conflict. The fact that there are some discussions within the party is something normal. Mountains are being made out of molehills, or a sensation out of something normal - said Jacek Sasin in "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" on TVN24.
11:29
- I find it hard to imagine [a coalition with Grzegorz Braun], to be honest. But on the other hand, I know what the rules of democracy are - Jacek Sasin said on TVN24's "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" (Piasecki's Conversation).
- And the rules of democracy are that you have to respect the voters' voices. If the voters decide that Grzegorz Braun's party will be in parliament and it turns out that a majority cannot be formed without this party, then probably one will have to seriously consider it, not just say 'no because no' - he stated.
- I want to declare this right away: there will be no coalition with Donald Tusk - he announced. When asked if he preferred Braun to the Prime Minister, he replied: - Of course, I prefer Grzegorz Braun to Donald Tusk.
As he continued: - Grzegorz Braun does indeed talk a lot of nonsense, however, I am not convinced that if it came to serious matters, and not just fighting for one's place on the political stage, it might not be possible to have some serious conversation. I don't know, I'm not ruling it out.
11:33
Czarzasty Addresses the President:
You Can’t Be the Best in Everything.
- Dismantling the EU at this moment, pitting nation against nation, will lead to Poland’s standing diminishing. Mr. President, please truly sit down, think about this matter, and don’t look at everything through the prism of wanting to be the best in all things, because it’s simply impossible to be the best in all things – stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty on TVP Info.
11:36
- I will not shy away from this issue. There is a request from PiS, from Mr. Kowalski, to declassify it. I spoke with MP Kowalski. I want to say that he showed far-reaching common sense. I told him: Mr. MP. If you demand that I put this to a vote right now, I will not, because I do not know what the legal consequences would be - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty at a press briefing in the Sejm.
- We will prepare for the next presidium meeting with an answer on the matter, and we will present this answer at the presidium and at the Convention of Senior MPs. This means we will be ready in 1.5 weeks - he continued.
11:45
- I have not made such a decision. Today and tomorrow I still have consultations, and then I will make a decision - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty at a press briefing in the Sejm.
11:46
- Two years ago, Civic Platform came to power with slogans including the repair of the healthcare system. [...] In their 100 concrete points, they promised unlimited access to benefits, they promised, in a word, that they would fix everything and everyone would be better off in this system - said Michał Wawer at a press conference.
- Unfortunately, after two years, we see that nothing has come of it, that after these two years, all the already existing, deep, systemic problems of the healthcare system have been further exacerbated - he continued.
- We have a situation where, to start with, Polish citizens are second-class citizens, because citizens of Ukraine are supported and financed by this system, citizens of Ukraine have guaranteed access to this system even when they do not pay contributions, which are mandatory for Polish citizens - he went on to say.
- We call on Prime Minister Tusk to fulfill his promises. Promises he made to Poles when coming to power, and if he is unable to fulfill these promises, we call on him to voluntarily resign, to admit that he is unable to implement his own program, that he is unable to fix healthcare, and that he is ready to leave it in the hands of people who [...] will actually be able to reform the healthcare system - he added.
12:48
Tusk to Nawrocki Regarding Cryptocurrencies:
Please Do Not Disturb and Allow the Bill to Pass.
- Today we will re-adopt the draft bill on cryptocurrencies. I want to make this very clear, and I am once again addressing all interested parties, including President Nawrocki - Prime Minister Donald Tusk said during a Council of Ministers meeting.
- We learned during these turbulent debates and meetings in recent days and hours, among others, Minister Bogucki stated it directly, that the President did not know earlier. "It's a shame he didn't know, because if he had known then..." - he continued.
As the Prime Minister indicated: - So now we say this: please do not disturb anymore and please allow this bill to pass, thanks to which cryptocurrency market participants in Poland will be safe, or at least safer, because generally, cryptocurrencies, the main value of this phenomenon is not some 100 percent safety.
- However, what is the task we have accomplished and are repeating the same effort for, is to make the cryptocurrency market in Poland safe from the perspective of investors, especially small investors, and from the perspective of the state's interests - he stated.
13:00
Tusk on Cryptocurrencies:
The President can receive any information he desires from the services before making a decision.
- As I have mentioned this publicly, in our official register of companies operating in the cryptocurrency market, in the Katowice register, there are over 100 entities directly linked to Russia, Belarus, and former Soviet Union states - Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated during a Council of Ministers meeting.
- This is an alarm bell that speaks very clearly: we must, in a fundamental way, without harming anyone's interests, I'm talking about ordinary investors, but we must fundamentally ensure the security of the state and its citizens on this matter - he indicated.
- So, I hope that this time, armed with knowledge, and if there is a need, I'm looking at Minister Siemoniak here, then – as it always is – the President can receive all the most minute, detailed information that I cannot disclose publicly, which is at the disposal of our services or the prosecutor's office. The President can receive any information he desires before making a decision - the head of government emphasized.
- But here, what is truly at stake is the security of both people and the Polish state - he added.
13:11
- Today, there will be a positive decision. Minor formalities are still being finalized, but very shortly we will have official confirmation that the European Commission is giving its consent to public aid for the construction of a nuclear power plant in Poland - Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated during a Council of Ministers meeting.
13:14
Tusk on the Start of Nuclear Power Plant Construction:
It Will Get Going Fast.
- In reality, this construction [of the nuclear power plant] will be able to get going fast, and that already in December. We have secured the financial resources. As you know, we are talking about a total of 60 billion zlotys, but already in December, meaning this year, the first 4.6 billion zlotys in treasury securities, which we have secured together with the Minister of Finance, will be transferred to the interested entity - said Prime Minister Donald Tusk during a Council of Ministers meeting.
15:12
Szłapka on the New Version of the Cryptocurrency Bill:
It Doesn't Differ.
- It doesn't differ. This is a project that has been sent to the President's desk. It will of course now be sent to the Sejm, it will be processed according to the legislative path, readings, committees, the possibility of submitting amendments, but the project is important and urgent - stated Adam Szłapka at a press briefing.
15:27
- You could lose up to two thousand zlotys. Tusk's team is preparing new regulations. From the new year, your mandate contract, if these regulations are adopted, could be forcibly converted into an employment contract, and this could mean a huge financial loss for you - said Mateusz Morawiecki in a recording on X.
- For example, with earnings of 10,000 zlotys gross per month, you could lose up to two thousand zlotys. And that's not all, because the act also includes a change regarding the National Labour Inspectorate (PIP), which is being granted super-powers, dangerous powers, which will allow it to practically decide arbitrarily whether a given contract has the character of an employment contract or not - he continued.

MFA Spokesperson Criticizes the Presidential Chancellery:
This Does Not Serve the Interests of the Republic of Poland.
"No, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not received a memo following President Duda's talks with President Trump, which reportedly took place in recent months. It is disappointing that the Presidential Chancellery has abandoned this practice of informing the MFA," wrote Maciej Wiewiór on X.
"No, for 55 days there has been no response to the letter concerning ambassadors, addressed to the President. 3. No, we have not received an invitation to a meeting – although we have been hearing about it in the media for another week," he continued in his post.
"This does not serve the interests of the Republic of Poland," he emphasized.
Sporo o to pytań, więc wyjaśniam:
— Rzecznik MSZ - Maciej Wewiór (@RzecznikMSZ) December 9, 2025
1.❌ Nie, MSZ nie otrzymało notatki po rozmowach Prezydenta @NawrockiKn z Prezydentem Trumpem, które podobno odbyły się w ostatnich miesiącach. To rozczarowujące, że Kancelaria @prezydentpl porzuciła tę praktykę informowania MSZ.

Sawicki on Sikorski-Nawrocki talks:
I hope certain things will be agreed upon.
- I hope that the determination of Deputy Prime Minister Sikorski as well, and I know him, so to speak, for his responsibility, will lead to him also sitting down with the President and agreeing on certain things, although we know from documents and materials that Deputy Prime Minister has also disclosed, that such talks were conducted, that there was an exchange of documents between the offices - stated Marek Sawicki in an interview with Beata Lubecka on Radio Zet.
18:11
Sawicki on KO’s Poll Numbers:
It’s a Great Result, But Still Doesn’t Enable Governing.
- This is a great result [for KO in the poll], only a result that still doesn’t enable governing. Jarosław Kaczyński was equally pleased with his result after the 2023 parliamentary elections, and the next day it turned out he had no one to build a coalition with. We encourage PO not to celebrate, but to strive to achieve 40%, and PSL at least 15% - stated Marek Sawicki on Radio Zet.
18:15
- It seems that the leaders have already reached an agreement. We discussed this in our last Sejm session, within the parliamentary club, that the coalition will also put forward candidates with the next nominations - stated Marek Sawicki on Radio Zet.
18:28
Sawicki Appeals to Nawrocki Regarding Trump:
It’s High Time for a Clear Signal to Be Sent.
- We must state clearly that Donald Trump has undergone an excessive degree of 'Putinization,' and it is high time that a clear signal also comes from President Nawrocki, who is undoubtedly a friend of Donald Trump - stated Marek Sawicki on Radio Zet.
19:06
- He is the head of the nation, he is the number 1 person in Polish politics. He is not a member of any political party, and when it comes to the right-wing electorate, he is a person who currently unites, not divides, and offers hope for the development of broader cooperation on the broadly defined right - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:13
Wipler:
Kaczyński is doing everything to push us into a coalition with Tusk, and Tusk is doing everything to push us into a coalition with Kaczyński
- This is not obvious, it's not automatic, because Jarosław Kaczyński is doing everything he can for us to enter a coalition with Donald Tusk, and Donald Tusk is doing everything he can for us to enter a coalition with Jarosław Kaczyński. When I listened last Friday, both to the public and closed parts of the session - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:19
Wipler:
The More Years Pass, The Louder the Voices Suggest Lepper's Death Wasn't Due to Depression
- Andrzej Lepper is no longer with us, so there's no point in us thinking about being in a coalition with Andrzej Lepper [Jarosław Kaczyński - ed.]. And the more years that pass since his death, the stronger the voices are suggesting that it wasn't Andrzej Lepper's depression that took his life - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:30
Wipler:
Domański's Budget Deficit is Morawiecki's Adopted Budget Deficit
- The problem is that, in fact, when we talk about Domański's budget deficit, it's Morawiecki's budget deficit adopted by Domański - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:31
Wipler praises Morawiecki:
He is one of the few.
- Mateusz Morawiecki, by the way, I must say, is one of the few politicians in his camp who shows any self-criticism and can admit that something, and specifically what, did not go well. Of course, he most willingly criticizes areas of the then government's activity over which he actually had no influence - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:40
Żurek on Actions Against Ziobro:
I Wish Him Health, But I Must Uphold the Law.
"Certainly, there is compassion towards a person who has gone through a serious illness, and that empathy is still with me," said Waldemar Żurek in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Gość Wydarzeń" (Guest of the Events) on Polsat News, when asked if, looking at Zbigniew Ziobro, he felt both justice and mercy for him.
"Here, I humanly empathize with the former minister, because I am not devoid of this empathy. However, I must do my job and I must also show citizens that one cannot instrumentally hide behind illness. We see one minister on a conference one day, on a plane, flying, delivering very fiery speeches, whether outdoors or in a studio, and the next day we hear his colleagues say, 'the minister is sick, let's not touch him.' In this way, any politician or many Polish citizens could avoid justice by saying, 'we are sick now,'" he continued.
"I wish the minister good health and I keep my fingers crossed for him, but I must uphold the law, because we are all equal before the law," he added.
19:43
Wipler:
We Will Oppose the Abolition of the Constitutional Debt Limit
- Poland faces a major shock, and then politicians will emerge and say that the constitutional debt limit must be abolished. We will oppose it, and probably the then-opposition will also oppose it, because a party like ours, which wants responsible spending and a balanced budget, which exists in Germany. Germany has a constitutional ban on borrowing, except in exceptional circumstances. The deficit in the budget of the Federal Republic of Germany can be a maximum of 0.35%, which is pennies, absolute pennies - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:48
Wipler:
Poles Don't Understand That Nowhere Do the Richest Pay the Highest Taxes
- Poles don't understand that nowhere in the world, not just in Poland, do the rich and the wealthiest pay the highest taxes. An entire mechanism of international law, EU law has been created, within which, if we look at the list of the 100 richest Poles, I think a maximum of a few, perhaps a dozen people, pay taxes in Poland - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
19:56
- No, it was a rhetorical figure, and I am aware that some people, law professors, say, "No, don't speak like that, it's not proper for a minister," but we know that in colloquial language, when state services, in order to ensure the regularity of a process, apprehend wanted persons by various methods, and we see that this happens all over the world, we know that it is sometimes on the verge of legality, sometimes it fits within the certain pragmatism of services. I am not a proponent of such actions - said Waldemar Żurek in Polsat News, when asked if he regretted his words about "bringing Zbigniew Ziobro back in the trunk."
- Even if such suggestions appeared somewhere in someone's head, "after all, he can be brought back from Budapest, there are so many detective agencies that would do it for fun," I definitely say: no, but I also want to convey a message to the citizen who understands what it means. It's a rhetorical figure, it doesn't have to be a trunk at all, it's about figuratively sweeping someone off the street and not caring about legal regulations - he continued.
19:58
Żukowska Firmly Responds to Szłapka:
You Won't Negotiate With Us.
"I'm at my wit's end. A 23 billion PLN deficit in the National Health Fund, and they're still heading towards making it even bigger" - wrote Anna Maria Żukowska on X, referring to Adam Szłapka's statement: "As part of deregulation, we would like to discuss lowering the health contribution. We need to consider various solutions with our coalition partners.".
"NO. You won't negotiate with us, there's not even the slightest possibility. With us, you can talk about abolishing the health contribution - in exchange for introducing a flat health tax, which we will discuss tomorrow at 12:30 PM." - she continued in her post.
"You from Civic Coalition (KO) want to deplete the state budget, and we from The Left want to strengthen it. You want to look for cuts in healthcare and introduce limits, while we want to increase spending to 8% of GDP on healthcare (which isn't even the EU average) so that it FINALLY works well. Because you can't have effective healthcare when you are the 5th largest economy in the EU, with 38 million inhabitants, and you are second to last in health spending." - she emphasized.

20:01
- I think this also stems from Mr. Bogucki's statement in the Sejm, where he said something like: if the president had known earlier, perhaps the implication was that he would have reacted differently - said Waldemar Żurek in Polsat News, when asked about the point of sending the cryptocurrency bill back to the Sejm in the same form in which it was vetoed by the president.
20:07
Żurek:
We have a parliamentary-cabinet system. The President is trying to change it
- We have a parliamentary-cabinet system, not a presidential one. And we have observed for several months that the President is trying to change the system by showing that he will decide which laws the government adopts, firstly, that every law must be negotiated with him beforehand – said Waldemar Żurek in Polsat News.
- That is not what politics is about, because the government won the elections. It gained a majority in parliament and it prepares the laws, and the president only has the right of veto, and it cannot be instrumental, because then it blocks, it destroys the state – he continued.
20:12
Żurek on the Consequences of the ECJ Ruling:
There Will Definitely Be a Need to Adapt the Law.
- Of course, we will comply with the rulings of European courts, because they are also our courts. I have great respect for the positions of various churches, but I believe that the state remains secular and there is a separation of church and state - said Waldemar Żurek in Polsat News, when asked about the ECJ ruling concerning the recognition of same-sex partnerships and the stance of the Episcopate.
- This will not mean weekend trips and, in my opinion, it will certainly mean the necessity of adapting the law, because civil status registers function based on the Act on Civil Status Records [...] we need to adapt the possibility of fields, so as not to enter "female/male sex" in a field, because we have a marriage legally concluded in another country here - he continued.
- I must admit honestly that my department is conducting an analysis, and there are currently 4 variants [...]. I cannot answer this with 100% certainty, but at first glance, I believe that yes [it will be statutory regulations] - he went on to say, when asked if this would not be done by way of a regulation and if a statutory approach was necessary.
20:15
Wipler on the Financing of Campus and Trzaskowski:
We Will Force the Disclosure of This List. Tusk Knows There's a Bomb There.
- They don't want to reveal the list of sponsors and entities that provided money for Campus Polska, and in my opinion, that would be very, very interesting, because through which intermediaries, through which entities, which powerful figures of this world gave money to future President Rafał Trzaskowski, expecting a reciprocal benefit, that they would receive something in return - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
- I think we will force the disclosure of this list, within two years at the latest, and we will reveal who financed it, who wanted to profit from investing in Rafał Trzaskowski - he stated.
As he said: - If you have very specific tobacco companies that put in 100,000 zlotys for Campus, if we have entities that, through various employer organizations, funneled money into Campus, and Donald Tusk knows there's a bomb there, and in fact, there are many of them.

Żurek on Same-Sex Marriages:
Our Constitution Allows It.
- We must be aware that this ruling [ECJ ruling] does not introduce the possibility for Polish citizens to enter into same-sex marriages in Poland under our legal system. Our Constitution, while it allows for it, as it clearly states that it protects the marriage of a man and a woman, does not say it prohibits it, nor can it be inferred from it that [same-sex] marriages are inadmissible - said Waldemar Żurek on Polsat News.

Wipler on Braun:
Close cooperation with him internationally is exclusionary.
- This whole fire extinguisher policy makes some people say: “nice herd, he made a fuss.” Others say: “okay, he showed he has balls.” Others say: “I hate all politicians, he represents my views, let him go and make a fuss, because Versailles certainly won't happen” - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview on PRZEkanał.
- This is something that gives you a stable church, something that Janusz Korwin-Mikke had, and even on a larger scale than Janusz Korwin-Mikke had. [...] And on the other hand, it repels, it deters people, let's say, normal people, those who, for example, voted for the Third Way 2 years ago - he noted.
“There are things that make close international cooperation with him exclusionary”
- There are things that make close international cooperation with him exclusionary. Two years ago, Confederation politicians were supposed to be at CPAC in Budapest, but the CPAC organizers said: we apologize, gentlemen, but due to the activities of your colleague, Mr. Grzegorz, you are not welcome this year - Wipler pointed out.
- It is clear that the Americans dictate the terms. And this year Krzysztof Bosak was at CPAC in Budapest and had a strong speech there - he added.
“This is the fundamental difference between us and Braun”
- If someone wants to shift the Overton window to the right and has such a mission, then it is justified and okay. But this is not something that will lead to us ever seriously facing what to do with this 300 billion of new debt, how to spend 5% of GDP on the army, how to reform the healthcare system so that money doesn't leak out. What to do so that the courts start working again, […] so that Poles want to invest and develop businesses in Poland. What to do so that electricity is available at affordable prices in the long term - he continued.
- This is real politics. This is what we focus on, this is what we want to deal with. And this is probably the fundamental difference between us and Grzegorz and his broadly understood team - concluded the Confederation politician.
