At 8:30 AM, in front of the Ministry of Health, a press conference will be held by the Vice-Chairman of PiS and candidate for Prime Minister, Przemysław Czarnek, along with Member of Parliament Katarzyna Sójka.

- Trump has that rhetoric. I think one must get used to it. In this way, he also effectively mobilizes NATO allies to increase their capabilities. If it weren't for Trump, we wouldn't be spending so much on defense, I'm not talking about Poland, but about Western European countries. Almost all countries, except Spain, have increased these expenditures - stated Adam Bielan in an interview with Marcin Fijołek on Polsat News' "Graffiti".

- I think it's worth considering the proposals that have been circulating for some time, which are to be adopted at the upcoming NATO summit in Ankara: that countries which do not pay, do not spend as much as they should, should have their voting rights suspended, or at least be moved to the back of the queue when it comes to the possibility of speaking at NATO meetings and making proposals, because Spain and several other Western European countries are freeloaders. They want to be protected by Article 5 and other NATO states, while at the same time not spending the necessary funds on defense - stated Adam Bielan on Polsat News' "Graffiti".

- No, I wouldn't sign off [on Donald Trump's words that NATO is a paper tiger]. I think NATO is significantly stronger than it was a few years ago. For instance, the fact that Finland and Sweden have joined. I remember, I was a member of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly 7, 8, 9 years ago. I used to ask my colleagues from Sweden or Finland if they would ever join, and they would say, and they were proponents of joining NATO, that it was absolutely impossible, that the societies of Sweden and Finland would never agree to it. Today, both of these countries are in NATO, and this significantly changes the geopolitical situation in our part of Europe, especially in the Baltic Sea region - stated Adam Bielan on Polsat News' "Graffiti".

- This is shocking. These kinds of posts, Tusk's false posts, are shocking. Even considering that we in Poland have probably gotten used to the fact that for over 20 years he has been trying to divide Poles, to sow hatred; he's been doing it since 2005. Jan Rokita describes it perfectly – how it all began. He was his close associate at the time, and probably on Natalia De Barbaro's advice, he began to build his political capital precisely on harsh attacks against PiS, personally against Jarosław, and at that time, Lech Kaczyński - stated Adam Bielan in Polsat News's “Graffiti”.

- But the situation where on the second day of the holiday, when millions of Poles, even non-Catholics, celebrate the resurrection of the Lord, Tusk reaches for Twitter to launch a completely false attack on his political opponents, shows that something is really wrong with him. Perhaps it's the poll that Polsat News published regarding the assessment of the government's actions. Only 37% of Tusk's government supporters, 57% opponents. These are record numbers - stated Adam Bielan on Polsat News’s “Graffiti”.

- Israel, certainly. When it comes to American actions, we should exercise restraint - said Krzysztof Bosak on "Gość Radia ZET," when asked if Poland should condemn the actions of the USA and Israel in the Middle East.

- Generally, when global wars are taking place, in which Poland is not a party, does not participate, and in which our allies participate – I mean the Americans, to be clear – we should exercise restraint, because we have no influence on the course of these wars, and the tension is immense - he continued.

- Frustration is growing in Washington related to the lack of a clear result that would allow the war to end and to save face. And in this situation, in my opinion, especially those who lead the state with overly strong comments should not stick their necks out, because a casting for a scapegoat is underway - he stated.

In his opinion: - It is already visible that Trump is looking for a scapegoat whom he can blame for everything looking different than he imagined. These could be allies, these could be other countries. In my opinion, it is in Poland's interest that we have nothing to do with this affair, with this quarrel.

- It seems to me that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is stubbornly silent so as not to say anything on these matters, and I don't expect a change. It seems to me that Minister Sikorski is here too, I would say, intertwined even with American circles – almost family-like – to engage in any diplomatic skirmishes here, or even to express words of criticism, either towards Israel or towards what is happening in the Middle East – said Krzysztof Bosak on "Gość Radia ZET".

- I think that when it comes to the very launch of this campaign, it will be possible to assess it based on polls conducted after Easter. Then, when Poles gather from different parts of the world, Europe, and at the holiday table, they will assess who they want to vote for. I think that somewhere in mid-April we will have these first post-Easter polls, and then it will be possible to compare whether there has been an increase or not. However, regardless of the results of these polls, we still have 18 months of hard work ahead of us, and we are perfectly aware of that - stated Adam Bielan on Polsat News' "Graffiti.".

- I know that such a meeting [the Prime Minister with ministers] took place, but I know nothing about these matters [that the idea of a single list, but without Poland 2050, was raised there] - said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz in the "Morning Interview" on RMF FM.

- I have heard, but completely unrelated to this meeting, that such rumors are circulating, but let's also be clear: Poland 2050, I've been saying this from the beginning, we don't see ourselves on any single list - she continued.

- Indeed, we have our own agenda within this coalition, an agenda that is needed for the coalition, although often [...] we are perceived as some kind of obstacle, some pebble in the shoe, but we are simply doing new politics, the kind that is needed - she went on to say.

"When it comes to the President, in my opinion, the President and his advisors have adopted a clear pro-American option, a very clear, very decisive one. It is known that the Trump presidency is, in turn, extremely pro-Israel. Consequently, in my opinion, if one wants to take a strongly pro-Trump stance at this moment, it is simultaneously a pro-Israel stance" – said Krzysztof Bosak in "Gość Radia ZET".

- To reach agreements, there needs to be space for such agreements to take place. Frankly speaking, I would wish for much more of that space in our coalition - said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on RMF FM.

- I would wish for much more of such space, so that strategic plans and important matters, important solutions for Poland, can be agreed upon - she continued.

- I had a very brief meeting, I think well over two months ago now, it concerned the KPO (National Reconstruction Plan), it was good and constructive, and then there was one coalition meeting regarding rule of law matters - she further stated, when asked when she last met with the Prime Minister.

- There is no space to talk; there hasn't been, so far. I still hope there will be, and I strongly urge that we talk about matters of contributing to the common good and how to distribute that fairly, well, and honestly in Poland - she added.

- We are below the threshold because we are bringing something entirely new. [...] It is also a matter of a new formation entering into co-responsibility for the state - said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz in RMF FM.

- We are a formation that was established, first won elections, and immediately entered the government, and it took us some time to learn how to govern and co-govern - she continued.

- The Left has also decreased by almost half, and they aren't reprimanded for it, which is also unequal treatment - said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz on RMF FM.

- They ran as 'Lewica' and in the very first weeks they lost a number of MPs, and no one reprimands them for it - she continued.

- No one accused them, no one wanted to change the coalition agreement because of it, they weren't accused of being unstable, this is different treatment for a new formation, also because we are outside the established circles - she added.

"A coalition discussion is also needed here, which I am indeed calling for, literally calling and urging for," said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz in RMF FM, when asked if Paulina Hennig-Kloska would lose her position.

"There is a coalition agreement that binds the four coalition partners. Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska is not a party to this agreement, but she is a member of the government, and therefore we must develop a common stance on this matter. We want to vote, after talking with the coalition partners, responsibly, just like the coalition partners," she continued.

"We would like to know what the coalition partners' position is here, because I hear very radical things on this matter from the PSL [...]" she went on to say.

"Various things can be heard," she added, when asked if she had also heard from the PSL that it might vote against Hennig-Kloska.

- There was a commitment made, no one denies that this commitment was made to Poland 2050 [...] it was not kept - Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz said on RMF FM when asked about the deputy prime minister for Poland 2050.

- It doesn't matter [that the club is half the size], if the Left is smaller than it was when it first sat down at the table, no one, not for a moment, questioned their position and commitments to them, truly, that's not what commitments are about - she continued.

- It wasn't kept from the very beginning, even before anything happened, and it's still not kept, and this is what the standards of old politics look like - she added.

– Did Mentzen coordinate his tour of Poland with you – yes or no? – Bogdan Rymanowski asked on “Gość Radia ZET”.

– No – Krzysztof Bosak replied.

Asked why, he responded: – Because it’s not our custom. Each of us is a leader, and each leader coordinates their route with their secretariat or their executive team. We have separate calendars.

– I still can’t get over the fact that people observing politics [...] think we have time to synchronize our calendars. Everyone, not just a leader, but even an MP, has so many things to do that everyone manages their own calendar. Everyone has their own secretariat and simply their own team, their own staff – he continued.

As he pointed out: – We consult on strategic matters. But who meets voters where and when is not a strategic matter. For example, this weekend I am going to the London Defence Conference to give a speech and meet with people involved in security. I also didn’t feel the need to consult this, because it’s simply another conference, more meetings.

- This is a very good question, for me this is precisely the incomprehensible situation where party interests triumph over the interests of the homeland, that is, the fatherland - said Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz in RMF FM, when asked about the Poland 2050 bill that is intended to hinder Polexit and why the Prime Minister is reluctant towards it.

- I honestly don't know, because for me it is incomprehensible. Today Paweł Kowal is blocking it, a politician from Civic Coalition, for many months in a Sejm committee, because it is his personal decision - she continued, when asked what interest Civic Coalition has in this bill not being passed.

- The bill, which is simply frozen, appears to be for partisan reasons. I hope he will change his mind, because no one here understands why this is happening, and the conviction arises that because it is not ours, we will block it against the interests of Poland, the interests of our membership in the European Union, and some kind of responsibility to future generations - she went on to say.

- There is no [dispute between myself and Sławomir Mentzen]. There are tensions, as in any party, but these are normal tensions resulting simply from ordinary political work - Krzysztof Bosak said in "Gość Radia ZET".

- However, people who see any divisions, any conflicts in Konfederacja, are in my opinion attempting to drive a wedge between us, while our cooperation is working out, as for Polish politics, really well - he stated.

- Should the state control the cryptocurrency market - yes or no? - Bogdan Rymanowski asked on "Gość Radia ZET".

- No - Krzysztof Bosak replied.

- I don't feel the need - he stated later.

Asked about WP's article concerning Zondacrypto exchange's problems, he responded: - In a legal sense, this company does not seem to be Polish. The management works outside the country. [...] In fact, apart from the fact that its president is Polish, the question is how much Polishness there is there. I am not sure if the crypto market is the kind of market where one can easily define the nationality of capital.

- I would be concerned if I kept my money on the Zondacrypto exchange. However, since I don't keep any money there, nor have I ever used its services, I am not. I advise anyone who uses the crypto market to exercise great caution towards all cryptocurrency exchanges - he stated.

Asked if, in this situation, the government bill vetoed by the president wouldn't have been useful, he replied: - No, because the government regulations contained nothing about foreign exchanges, and this is a foreign exchange from the perspective of Polish law, nor did they mention anything about guaranteeing deposits on exchanges operating in Poland.

- Please listen carefully to what Sławomir Mentzen says. In his comments, he is very critical of Donald Tusk's government, just as all of us in Konfederacja are – Krzysztof Bosak said on "Gość Radia ZET", when asked if he feared that Sławomir Mentzen might reach an agreement with Donald Tusk after the elections.

- Konfederacja is the real political alternative to what Civic Platform is, as well as what PiS, PSL, and Lewica are. I believe that an agreement with Tusk by us would be political treason, and I consider it impossible – he stated.

- The way Donald Tusk governs, both during Tusk's first government – when we were protesting in the streets, when we were attacked during the Independence Marches by services subordinate to him, when people were held in custody, when there were major scandals like the tape scandal, the wiretapping scandal – as well as the current level of Donald Tusk's government – implementing insane climate policy, destroying the Polish economy, and indebting the state – these are anti-national governments – he assessed.

- These are governments absolutely inconsistent with what Konfederacja says and proposes. We are the political alternative to this political degradation that we are witnessing – he added.

- After just over two years of governance in this ministry, first by Ms. Leszczyna, and now by the silent Ms. Sobierańska-Grenda, Poles have been presented with a fact, a fact that is extremely dangerous for them - said Przemysław Czarnek at a press conference.

- 2026 is the year of prevention. [...] In this ministry, a decision was made to reduce financial resources for preventive examinations, colonoscopies, and gastroscopies by 60%, and for diagnostic imaging by 50%. This is the best example of what is happening in Donald Tusk's government and in the ministry of the silent Ms. Sobierańska-Grenda - he continued.

- I have a question for Mr. Donald Tusk right after Easter: what will he tell Poles who are feeling unwell today and who, in this year of prevention, would also like to undergo examinations to diagnose their health status? What will he tell them? "Smile"? "We do, we don't talk," meaning we are limiting your possibilities to get treated in Poland? - he went on.

- In '24, when it was the first year of Donald Tusk and Ms. Leszczyna's government in this ministry, the crisis began in the fourth quarter. Last year, '25, the crisis was already in the third quarter. We are starting the year '26 with a severe healthcare crisis already in the second quarter. This is a drama - he added.

- Together with Minister Katarzyna Sójka, we are submitting [...] a motion of no confidence against Ms. Sobierańska-Grenda - he stated.

- Żurek appointed a special team for the Epstein affair. Services, prosecutors, analysts - three million pages from America and you know what they found? Practically nothing. And in Kłodzko? 25 years in prison for 12 years of raping children. A case that shook Poland, and silence - stated Mateusz Morawiecki in a recording published on social media.

- No team, no order, perhaps because people connected with Civic Platform have been ruling in Kłodzko for years? And perhaps that's why no one from the government wants to look into it? A special commission in the Sejm should start working immediately. This matter needs to be clarified; we'll see if Tusk and Żurek treat Polish children as seriously as American headlines do - he continued.

The electoral commissioner in Krakow has set the date for a referendum on the recall of Krakow's Mayor, Aleksander Miszalski, and the Krakow City Council before the end of their term. The referendum will take place on May 24.

“From day one of my term, I have spoken clearly – I want to be held accountable for the results of my work for the people of Krakow. Today, we are implementing many important changes in Krakow: investments in transport, schools, security, and public spaces. This is a process that requires time and consistency,” wrote Aleksander Miszalski on social media.

“I believe that Krakow deserves stability, responsibility, and the completion of initiated actions. Therefore, every day for the next 7 weeks, I will strive to convince you that it is worthwhile to let me finish my term and then decide what comes next,” he indicated.

“A referendum on recall always mobilizes opponents. That's how this system works. Therefore, if you believe that I should finish my term, stay home on the day of the referendum,” the Mayor of Krakow urged.

“Our victory will be a low turnout in the referendum and a high turnout on election day. The final decision – as always – is yours,” he added.

Od pierwszego dnia kadencji mówiłem jasno - chcę być rozliczany z efektów mojej pracy dla Krakowian.

Dziś prowadzimy w Krakowie wiele ważnych zmian: inwestycje w transport, szkoły, bezpieczeństwo, przestrzeń publiczną.

To proces, który wymaga czasu i konsekwencji.

- Today, I also want to inform you that I am sending a special letter to Prime Minister Donald Tusk demanding the immediate challenge of the European Union's agreement with Mercosur countries before the Court of Justice of the European Union. The government made a promise, and to this day, it has not fulfilled it. The countryside cannot wait any longer - announced President Karol Nawrocki in a recording published on social media.

- Attached to the letter is a ready draft of such a complaint. Everything is ready, we just need to act. All avenues and possibilities must be utilized to halt the Mercosur agreement - emphasized the President of the Republic of Poland.

- In this difficult time, I have undertaken two important initiatives for the Polish countryside. The first is the proposal for a new law on the protection of the productive function of rural areas. This is a law stemming from the fundamental and just conviction that a farmer's work is not a problem, it is a value. The Polish countryside is a wonderful place to live, to reside. But we must say it honestly. The Polish countryside is primarily hard, daily work. It involves animal husbandry, but it also means the sound of machines at dawn and during harvest. This is the natural rhythm of life and work in agricultural areas. Without this, there is no countryside. Without this, there is no agriculture - informed President Karol Nawrocki in a recording published on social media.

"This is not a law against anyone"

- However, sometimes precisely because of this, tension arises, as these realities are not always met with understanding from all rural residents. In such difficult situations, two things are needed – common sense and good law. When understanding is lacking, there must be clear regulation. Regulation that orders neighborly relations and restores balance. And that is precisely what my legislative proposal serves. This is not a law against anyone. This is a law for building a good community, so that there is a place for everyone in the Polish countryside. For those who want to work here. And for those who simply want to live well here.

"We must end the situation where a farmer has to defend themselves or explain why they are working"

- The new law that I have prepared states clearly – animal husbandry, field work, the movement of machinery are not nuisances that need explaining. This is food production, this is service to the nation. We must end the situation where a farmer has to defend themselves or explain why they are working. We are introducing the principle that if a farmer acts in accordance with the law, they have the right to work, and the burden of proving any abuses no longer rests on them. This law is about common sense and balance. We are not giving anyone permission for abuses.

"Clear rules, the kind that end chaos and uncertainty"

- Instead, we are providing clear rules, the kind that end chaos and uncertainty. We are introducing the principle of proportionality. A complete ban on activity or its significant restriction by a court will only be possible as a last resort, when other methods fail, and the production genuinely threatens health or the environment. The new legal framework is intended to foster technological modernization in agriculture and strengthen the position of family farms, preventing situations where court decisions push agriculture out of rural areas. Additionally, before a case reaches court, the parties will be obliged to attempt an amicable resolution of the dispute, i.e., mediation.

"This is a restoration of elementary fairness"

- A strong state is not a state of conflict. It is a state of sensible order and normalcy. An extremely important element of the new law is the mandatory notarial information mechanism. People buying real estate in the countryside will officially declare that they are aware that in their vicinity, potentially bothersome, but fully legal, agricultural activity may be conducted. Anyone who decides to live in the countryside must understand that the countryside is not a museum. The countryside works, the countryside produces, the countryside lives. This is a restoration of elementary fairness.

- I appeal for Parliament and the Government not to delay their adoption and to undertake their implementation. Because a strong countryside means healthy Polish food, stable prices, independence from foreign supplies, security in times of uncertainty. A Poland that respects its countryside is a strong Poland, a secure Poland, a proud Poland. And this is the Poland we are building together. Polish farmer. Polish field. Polish bread on the Polish table. Long live the Polish countryside! Long live Poland! - concluded the President of the Republic of Poland.

- The Provincial Integrated Hospital in Kielce, a total of 18 million PLN is owed by the National Health Fund (NFZ) from the previous year. Of this amount, 13 million PLN is for life-saving procedures; hundreds of people have undergone surgery and are alive, but the NFZ has no intention of paying for it - said Przemysław Czarnek in a recording published on PiS's profile on X.

- A thousand fewer people will receive a CT scan this year solely because Sobierańska-Grenda, in a year of prevention, reduced funding for diagnostic tests under Tusk's influence. Outrageous - he continued.

‼️ GRANDA! Wojewódzki Szpital Zespolony w Kielcach. 18 mln zł łącznie NFZ zalega za poprzedni rok. W tym 13 mln zł to są zabiegi ratujące życie. Setki osób zostało zoperowanych i żyją, ale NFZ za to nie zamierza zapłacić. 🟥 Tysiąc osób mniej uzyska badanie tomografem… pic.twitter.com/iPCsldm2zt

"Orbán declared to Putin that he is at his service on any matter." - Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on X.

"I think it should resonate clearly and unequivocally from Warsaw that this is not our war," said Adrian Zandberg in the "Afternoon Conversation" on RMF FM.

"I would like Poland to have one voice on such matters," he continued, when asked from which palace.

"This is a moment when we should also clearly state that we will not get involved in these actions. I am very surprised by some Polish politicians who are practically itching to get involved in the Middle East conflict, whether verbally or with forces," he went on.

"This is Netanyahu and Trump's war, which could cost the entire world a deep economic recession and the inhabitants of the Middle East a tragic humanitarian crisis," he added.

- If President Nawrocki has such good contacts with President Trump's political circle, if he considers himself a friend of President Trump, then when we see someone we are friends with intends to do something foolish or criminal, it is among the roles of friends to say that it is a mistake and that it should not be done - Adrian Zandberg said on RMF FM, when asked if he could imagine President Karol Nawrocki calling or writing to Donald Trump not to commit war crimes.

- Friendship is not behaving like a vassal nor fawning at every opportunity, that's how I would at least understand partnership relations - he continued.

- My only concern in this matter is to make it clear and unequivocal that no Polish soldier will go to the Middle East - he further stated.

- We must take care of our security in Europe ourselves. [...] Orbán stands in the way of these types of solutions. He simply doesn't like defense cooperation and cooperation when it comes to security in the region, so looking from this perspective, his continued rule in Hungary is a problem for Poland, but the fundamental issue is that Hungarians will ultimately decide - said Adrian Zandberg on RMF FM.

- We all see how this right-wing international operates. When Mr. Orbán's rule ends in Hungary, then the gentlemen from Hungary will probably flee to some other country, to some Argentina or somewhere in Central America, someone there will surely embrace them - Adrian Zandberg said on RMF FM.

- I have a feeling that the whole story is just a lot of hot air around this Romanowski and Ziobro, because the truth is that it could have been handled by simply summoning the gentlemen for questioning while they were at liberty, and only if they didn't show up, then issue an arrest warrant for them. Everything was done the other way around, and thanks to this, they were given a pretext not to appear for questioning while at liberty - he continued.

"If Jarosław Kaczyński says that 2+2 is 4, I will not claim the next day that 2+2 is 5, simply because Jarosław Kaczyński said so. In enough matters, I disagree with him so fundamentally that it wouldn't be a life problem for me to agree on something" - Adrian Zandberg said on RMF FM, when asked if there is any common ground between Razem and PiS regarding the call for the health minister to resign.

"We announced that we would submit a motion of no confidence against the minister. As I understand it, PiS's declaration is that they will support it" - he continued.

- The fundamental problem we have today stems from the state budget adopted in December last year. To be clear, we warned about this precisely, as the government, disregarding the warnings from Razem, adopted a financial plan which clearly indicated that by the middle of the year, there would be problems with healthcare services - stated Adrian Zandberg on RMF FM.

- Let the minister come out to a press conference and say that the ministry is requesting funds from the Minister of Finance, and Minister Domański is refusing. I would like to hear that, but clearly, from the minister's own lips - said Adrian Zandberg on RMF FM.

- Then we will talk about Minister Domański, if it is Minister Domański who is behind pushing public healthcare towards privatization. But let the minister show the courage and say that, instead of shutting herself away in the ministry and not talking to anyone - he continued.

- Yes, it is necessary - said Adrian Zandberg in RMF FM when asked if a constitutional reset is possible.

- If we don't do it, it will continue as it is. Only [...] others will not recognize these judges who were elected by the current majority, and that's how we will be playing for another decade - he continued.

- We are constantly monitoring the situation. We know what's happening on the markets, we know what a rollercoaster we have in the world right now. Today's statements are stirring huge emotions, probably across every latitude - said Wojciech Balczun in a conversation with Marek Czyż in TVP Info's “Question of the Day.”

- However, it seems that for now, the situation is under control. What we started with when the conflict in the Middle East began was primarily to ensure the availability of fuel at stations, actions on Orlen's part at the stations. Then, the launch of various actions by Orlen related to reducing its margin, then weekend promotions, and finally the CPN program - he continued.

- Everyone is trying to save themselves in some way. All countries in the world have the same problem – this is not a Polish problem – and all countries are implementing various kinds of programs – said Wojciech Balczun in “Pytanie dnia” (Question of the Day) on TVP Info.

- We are at the forefront. In fact, we have implemented one of the best, strongest consumer protection and fuel price reduction programs at stations. This program has de facto become a benchmark for many countries, as we are already seeing that, among others, the Czechs are following our path – he pointed out.

“We are monitoring all reserves, we are ensuring there is no shortage of fuel. But of course, we are also analyzing scenarios. If this fuel tourism were to reach a very large scale, we are also preparing for such scenarios and measures that will limit refueling opportunities for foreigners,” said Wojciech Balczun in “Pytanie dnia” on TVP Info.

- We have no influence on when the terms of office for corporate bodies, supervisory boards, or management boards end. Here, we are dealing with a situation where the management board's term is expiring. We are obliged to conduct a tender [at Orlen] - said Wojciech Balczun in "Pytanie dnia" on TVP Info.

- Anyone can apply if they feel up to it, but of course, they must meet the criteria set by the supervisory board. We expect, I think, significant competition here, and we will be making, or the supervisory board will be making, very substantive decisions - he stated.

- We are very close to a key moment. The day after tomorrow, we will have a press conference with the Prime Minister, where we will announce the results of the work of the team that was appointed by me - said Wojciech Balczun on TVP Info's "Pytanie dnia".

He added: - This is an inter-ministerial team; we invited various state institutions, led by the Public Procurement Office and the Central Statistical Office, and we worked very intensively for several months to develop the principles of the program called local content.

- We are talking about a domestic component in supply chains. It looks like the project, in which a kind of economic patriotism – not to be confused with protectionism – will be in effect in Poland, will start to become a reality - he indicated.

- We have looked very closely at the best practices in Europe, because we understand that European regulatory order applies to us at all times. But we see how our older colleagues from other countries know how to build economic patriotism that supports their local businesses - said Wojciech Balczun in "Pytanie dnia" on TVP Info, referring to so-called local content.

- And our goal is for the beneficiaries of major investments, unprecedented investments - energy alone is a trillion zloty over the next 10 years - to be our business, Polish companies, including those from the small and medium-sized enterprise sector, private companies, participating as much as possible in these major investment processes, building their competencies, developing, including technologically - he emphasized.
