- The President of the Republic of Poland represents the nation, but in various ways. Sometimes the President of the Republic of Poland represents the nation by making a decision on behalf of the nation. But sometimes the president represents the nation in such a way that a specific action is a symbol, symbolizing the majesty of the nation - said Marcin Wiącek on Polsat News's "Graffiti".

- In such situations, the president does not have the competence to make decisions. For example, the president calls elections for the Sejm and the Senate. For example, the president convenes the first session of the Sejm. And in the case of these competences, the president does not have a decision on whether to do so. They can make a decision regarding the date, of course, also within the framework set by the constitution - he explained.

- There is a certain set of competences where the president does not make decisions on behalf of the nation, but symbolizes that nation. Receiving the oath from a judge of the Constitutional Tribunal belongs to this second group. And here, there is no room for decision-making on whether a given person will be or will not be a judge of the Tribunal, because they already are a judge of the Constitutional Tribunal - he indicated.
