- In my opinion, there is a significant problem with this law. Of course, this is again President Nawrocki's decision, but I would like to point out that even the title of this law uses the term "union" - said Zbigniew Bogucki on RMF FM, when asked about the law on the status of a close person and whether he saw any room for compromise.

- The Polish Constitution clearly states: the union of a woman and a man is under the protection of the Republic of Poland - he continued.

- Suddenly, in a year or a year and a half, there might be some ruling from a foreign court or tribunal stating that there are no reasons why, for example, such unions [should not] adopt children, for instance, homosexual unions - he went on to say.

- It makes no difference what is written in this law [...] we have repeatedly dealt with laws that were very clearly and unambiguously written, and then we had to deal with judicial interpretation, especially from foreign tribunals, which resulted in something that contradicted the provisions of that law, and that is the case, or could be the case, here - he added.

- We cannot use the term "union" here [...] if marriage is to remain a privileged form, and it is so based on the Polish Constitution, then we cannot create something that we call differently but which would essentially be treated the same - he emphasized, when asked what would need to be in this law for Karol Nawrocki to sign it.
