- As you know, we have managed to resolve a few matters regarding Mercosur. Meaning, Poland is against Mercosur for obvious reasons; we have significant interests of our farmers and producers, and some of these interests will perhaps not be threatened, but they certainly have no reason to rejoice at the entry into force of Mercosur - Prime Minister Donald Tusk said at a press conference in Brussels.

- I said from the very beginning: Poland will not support Mercosur. But because we also know that it will be very difficult to block Mercosur, as there is no majority for that for now [...] simultaneously we worked [...] we managed to push through certain amendments that are good from the perspective of Polish farmers and Polish producers - he continued.

- If this version of Mercosur that we currently have on the table comes into effect, it is largely safe now from the perspective of Polish farmers, but also Polish consumers, we are talking here about the issue of pesticide use, increased control from the European Union - he went on to say.

- The efforts of the Polish People's Party, I must emphasize this very strongly, have brought about the desired effect. We try to act wisely, meaning, we look for opportunities to block bad regulations, and when we don't have a majority on a matter, we at least fix the project so that it is not dangerous for Poland. [...] It's not ideal, but it's not bad - he added.
