Monday's Political Agenda: Tusk Meets Macron in Gdańsk, Czarnek Holds Morning Press Conference

At 8:30 AM, a press conference will be held at the Łucznik Arms Factory in Radom by the Vice-Chairman of PiS and candidate for Prime Minister, Przemysław Czarnek.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk will participate in the 1st Polish-French Intergovernmental Summit in Gdańsk.

The talks will focus on, among other things, bilateral relations between Poland and France, security challenges in Europe, as well as allied and transatlantic relations.

Representatives from the ministries of foreign affairs, defense, energy, and culture and national heritage will attend the summit.

At 12:35 PM, a meeting between the head of government and the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, will commence. A delegation meeting is scheduled for 1:05 PM, a family photo for 2:35 PM, and a plenary session for 2:45 PM.

At 4:15 PM, a meeting with the media will take place with Prime Minister Donald Tusk and President Emmanuel Macron. The next item on the agenda is laying flowers at the Monument to the Fallen Shipyard Workers of 1970 at 5:05 PM, followed by a visit to the permanent exhibition.

The final point on the schedule is the awarding ceremony of the Bronisław Geremek Award at 6:10 PM.

Around 2:15 PM in Jastrzębie-Zdrój, the Chairman of PiS, Jarosław Kaczyński, will participate in the opening of an exhibition titled "Katyn 1940 - Smolensk 2010. Anatomy of a Lie.".

Domański Asked About Fuel Prices:

We Will Make Appropriate Decisions.

- We will make appropriate decisions so that fuel prices at petrol stations are as low as possible. This is what Prime Minister Tusk spoke about - stated Andrzej Domański in TOK FM.

- I think that at this moment, looking at what is happening on the market, such a departure [from VAT and excise duty] would be premature, at least in the first weeks of May, but it is a program that costs PLN 1.6 billion per month - he continued.

- I do not see the need to amend the budget at this time. The program is indeed costly, but on the other hand, let's remember - if this program were not in place, drivers would feel the price increases at petrol stations even more acutely, which in turn would translate into less normal retail sales in shops - said the Minister of Finance.


08:12

Domański on the New Draft Law Regarding Cryptoassets:

I Confirm That Work is Underway at the Ministry of Finance.

- Naturally, work is underway at the Ministry of Finance on solutions that, in our opinion, could lead to the adoption of this law. It is a disaster that the President vetoed a law that was very much needed by Poland, by Polish clients, and by savers in cryptoassets. The President did not stand with Poles; it's hard to say what interest guided him. It was certainly not the interest of Poles investing in cryptoassets. So, I confirm that work is underway at the Ministry of Finance. A decision regarding the final shape of the proposal has not yet been made - stated Andrzej Domański on TOK FM.


08:14

Müller:

I Want There to Be Awareness That the Association's Activities Are Not Against the Party in Any Way

- Above all, I want there to be an awareness that the activities of our association are not to be against the party in any way, but quite the opposite, they are to expand our electorate - said Piotr Müller in an interview with Marcin Zaborski on the program "Gość Radia ZET", when asked why Kaczyński spoke with Morawiecki after media turmoil.

- Since 2023, we have lost over 10 percentage points of support, we must fight for it, the current method is ineffective - he continued.


08:15

Cieszyński on the Rozwój Plus Association:

I am convinced that we will clarify everything this week.

- I am convinced that we will clarify these matters this week, that all these issues that have arisen around [the Rozwój Plus association] will be resolved - said Janusz Cieszyński in an interview with Mariusz Piekarski on TVP Info’s “Gość Poranka”.


08:19

Cieszyński:

I Am a Member of the Association and a Member of PiS – I Do Not Intend to Change This State of Affairs

- I have absolutely not withdrawn [from the Rozwój Plus association] because I am one of the founding members. I have also been a member of PiS for 14 years, and I do not intend to change this state of affairs in either aspect - said Janusz Cieszyński on "Gość Poranka" on TVP Info.

- I believe that, firstly, PiS has the best offer in Poland when it comes to politics. And secondly, I believe that initiatives like the Rozwój Plus association will allow us to achieve an even better electoral result - he continued.


08:19

Müller:

Morawiecki's Association Will Not Run Independently; We Want to Run on PiS Lists

- It will not run, because we want to run on the lists of Law and Justice - said Piotr Müller on Radio ZET, when asked if he could rule out that Morawiecki's association would not run independently in the elections.

- I am deeply convinced that here, when the chairman learns what reality looks like and that the advisors who simply misled him had specific bad intentions, he will simply change his mind - he continued, when pressed about the lack of places on PiS lists for the association's members.

- Chairman Kaczyński was misled by people who, as usual, we have seen this before, for example in 2011, were once responsible for leaving the party. Including Patryk Jaki - he went on to say.


08:25

Müller Comments on Kaczyński's Words About Morawiecki:

That's a Misdiagnosis.

"I believe that this is a misdiagnosis, because all public opinion polls indicate that Mateusz Morawiecki enjoys the highest level of trust among voters from the Law and Justice party," said Piotr Müller on Radio ZET, when asked about Jarosław Kaczyński's words regarding Mateusz Morawiecki: "he should [...] understand that for a very large part of the political right [...] he is simply a red rag to a bull" and the PiS leader's suggestion that this is why Morawiecki should not be the party's candidate for Prime Minister.


08:29

Cieszyński:

I'm not in PiS to have a spot on the list, but to implement the program

- I am not in PiS to have a spot on the list, but to implement the PiS program, just as we managed to implement it over 8 years of government. That's the first thing. And the second thing is that [...] I am convinced that this matter [of the association] will be clarified - said Janusz Cieszyński on TVP Info's "Morning Guest".


08:31

Domański on Raising the Second Tax Bracket:

Poland 2050 and Pełczyńska-Nałęcz Did Not Directly Submit This Proposal to Me.

- For 2026, the tax brackets remain unchanged. Poland 2050, Ms. Pełczyńska-Nałęcz, did not directly submit this proposal to me. She did not consult about the possibility of raising the second bracket. Of course, coalition parties have the right to submit their own projects, although in my opinion, such important and significant projects should have been consulted with the relevant ministries earlier - stated Andrzej Domański on TOK FM.


08:31

"They're Doing Everything to Push Morawiecki Out of PiS." Müller: The Problem Lies with Suwerenna Polska Politicians, Like Jaki, Ozdoba, Kurski

- I would like to return to what I believe is the real problem. And it's not Przemysław Czarnek. Przemek generally attracts many voters from the right as well - said Piotr Müller on Radio ZET.

- I believe the problem lies with politicians from the former Suwerenna Polska, who are doing everything to push Mateusz Morawiecki out of the Law and Justice party. So, for example, Patryk Jaki, Jacek Ozdoba, Jacek Kurski, and others - he continued.

- I don't want to involve Zbigniew Ziobro in this at all, because, please notice, Zbigniew Ziobro isn't doing anything today to divide Law and Justice. It's mainly Patryk Jaki doing this, Jacek Kurski is doing this, these are former leaders of Suwerenna Polska, and I hold it against them and I say it directly: gentlemen, stop it - he went on to say.


08:32

Cieszyński:

The Association and PiS Share a Common Goal - Removing This Bad Government from Power

- In my assessment, the Rozwój Plus Association and the PiS party have no conflicting goals; they have one common objective – to remove this bad government from power in Poland – stated Janusz Cieszyński on TVP Info's "Gość Poranka" program.


08:43

Cieszyński:

No Contradiction Between Association's Goals and PiS's Goals. Any Statutory Actions Will Be Groundless

- There is no contradiction between the goals of the association and the goals of PiS, which is why any statutory actions here will simply be groundless. And if they are undertaken, I will very clearly and step-by-step explain to the appropriate PiS bodies why it is as I say. I am convinced that these explanations will be accepted - said Janusz Cieszyński on "Gość Poranka" on TVP Info.


08:46

Müller on Jaki:

Sometimes Strong Facts Can Be Painful for Him, I Would Also Advise Him to Repeat His Math Lessons on Percentages.

- I know that perhaps for Patryk, strong facts can sometimes be painful, but I would also advise him, for instance, recently when he tried to quote some studies, to repeat his math lessons on percentages, because something didn't add up in his recent statements regarding the flow of voters - said Piotr Müller on Radio ZET, when asked: "Patryk Jaki replies that he was the victim of a vulgar attack from those on your side.".


08:52

Cieszyński on the Association: 'We See the Need to Present a Program for Those Who Voted for PiS and May Have Doubts if PiS Still Has an Offer for Them'

- Together with my colleagues, with whom we have founded the association, we see the need to present, in addition to the program that today forms the core of what PiS presents, also a program for people who, in our assessment, voted for PiS, who were in those thirty-odd percent who voted for us in 2023, who were among the over 8 million voters who voted for us in 2019, and who – as we see in the polls – may have doubts whether PiS still has such an offer for them – said Janusz Cieszyński in "Gość Poranka" on TVP Info.

- I am convinced that at the moment when we talk about projects like those realized by PiS, such as the Central Communication Port, […] we will talk about new technologies, about digitalization, completely neglected under the current government, I am convinced that these people will see that PiS is today the best alternative to Donald Tusk's government – he stated.


08:55

Cieszyński:

Some of my colleagues are still in Sovereign Poland, even though it directly contradicts PiS's statute

- Some of my colleagues are also still in the party Sovereign Poland, which is still registered with the court in Warsaw, even though this directly contradicts the statute of PiS - said Janusz Cieszyński in "Gość Poranka" on TVP Info.


09:01

Cieszyński:

Every Time Tusk Governs, a Financial Scandal Erupts - Then Amber Gold, Now Zondacrypto

- Please, really don't push this child into our bellies. Because it always happens when Donald Tusk is in charge, just like Amber Gold back then, now there's the Zondacrypto scandal – said Janusz Cieszyński on TVP Info's "Gość Poranka".

- Every time Donald Tusk governs, a financial scandal erupts and Poles lose their money – he stated.


09:03

Müller:

If it were up to me, Mejza would no longer be a PiS MP

- If it were up to me personally, Łukasz Mejza would no longer be a member of the Law and Justice party's parliamentary club today. Not because he exceeded the speed limit once, but because he did it multiple times, because he doesn't learn from his mistakes, and because the type of communication he uses in this matter trivializes these actions - said Piotr Müller on Radio ZET.


09:24

Morawiecki on Today's Meeting with Kaczyński:

We Will Definitely Clear Some Things Up.

- This is a meeting where we will definitely clear some things up, and I mean that in the fullest sense of the word. It will certainly be a conversation where we will both be as positive and constructive as possible, to untangle – as it was put – communication turbulence - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanał Zero.


09:31

Morawiecki on Jaki:

He Has Problems with Fractions.

- I don't want to argue with this gentleman. I saw he has some problems with me, problems with fractions. I can only say that if you divide an apple into 4 parts and eat one part, 3/4 remains, and on this note, I would like to conclude my lecture on this matter and the conversation about this gentleman - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanal Zero.


09:32

Morawiecki:

There is no division. There are communication turbulences

- There is no divorce, there is no division. There are communication turbulences - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanał Zero.


09:34

Czarnek:

PiS Garnered Up to 45% Support Precisely Because it is a Broad Formation with Diverse Currents

- PiS, as a very broad political formation with diverse currents that have always been present in this party, garnered up to 45% support precisely because there are different currents. We have a common foundation, but different views on various details - said Przemysław Czarnek at a press conference in Radom.

- Thanks to the fact that PiS won twice independently, it is precisely this Łucznik plant that is developing. And this is the future of this plant as well - PiS as one great force with diverse currents in order to develop Polish armaments industry - he continued.

- On the other hand, you have the picture of misery and despair from Tusk, Kosiniak-Kamysz, and Czarzasty. […] Let us therefore focus on how to bring about a situation where PiS can once again say to the employees of Łucznik here in Radom: "Listen, you have a well-paid and long-term job, because we will be ordering from you just as we did" - he went on to say.


09:39

Morawiecki:

Tusk Wants to Shift to the Center-Right, and I Don't Want to Leave Him Any Room

- At the moment, Polish politics consists of Donald Tusk wanting to shift to the center-right, and I don't want to leave him any room here. I am focusing on serious centrist-right topics related to the economy, unlocking investment potential, attracting entrepreneurs, and preparing land for development - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanał Zero.


09:44

Morawiecki:

Mejza's Actions Warrant Very Radical Moves

- I believe that what MP Mejza is doing truly warrants very radical moves. Highly radical. I won't say more here. Very radical - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanał Zero.


09:48

Morawiecki on Kurski:

When any disagreements arise, he tries to fan the flames.

- I don't think so. Rather, I see Jacek Kurski being very active when any disagreements arise; he tries to add fuel to the fire. I think he could come to an understanding with you here, but that is your role, and his should be different - stated Mateusz Morawiecki on Kanał Zero.


12:13

Leo:

Polska 2050 is posturing, but will ultimately vote against Hennig-Kloski's dismissal with its tail between its legs

- We heard this ultimatum, the Prime Minister's ultimatum. I have a feeling that Polska 2050, to put it colloquially, is now trying to differentiate itself, it's posturing a bit, but at the end of the day, everyone, or the majority, will vote against the dismissal of Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska with its tail between its legs - said Aleksandra Leo in an interview with Renata Grochal on "Bez uników" on Trójka.


12:20

MP from Centrum on Poland 2050:

She Needs to Be Pacified a Little and Put Back on Track.

- Two months ago, Chairwoman Pełczyńska-Nałęcz caused the collapse of the Poland 2050 club, which split evenly in half [...] and now she's heading towards a wall a bit, in the same direction, when it comes to cooperation within the coalition - said Aleksandra Leo on Trójka.

- Mirosław Suchoń used a very good, somewhat funny comparison, about how at every, or almost every, wedding there's that moustachioed uncle, the one who's a bit tipsy around midnight, causing a ruckus, making trouble, and needs to be pacified, and at the end of the day, at the end of that wedding, he basically ends up face-down in the salad - she continued.

- That moustachioed uncle in the October 15th coalition is now precisely Poland 2050; she needs to be pacified a little and put back on track. I hope this happens and that it doesn't threaten the October 15th coalition in any way - she added.


12:44

Kosiniak-Kamysz on Arms Cooperation Between Poland and France:

Today We Will Sign a Letter of Intent.

"Certainly, our armaments companies are interested in presenting their offer, and a product we would like to sell to the French side is the Baobab rapid mine-laying vehicle, which is effective and highly regarded. I have already discussed this with the French Minister of Defence" – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz at a press conference.

"Also, our drone capabilities, and the French certainly have capabilities in space operations, satellite capabilities, and here this cooperation, today we will sign a letter of intent in this regard" – he continued.


12:49

Kosiniak-Kamysz on the Polish-French Summit and Nawrocki's Non-Invitation:

These are Intergovernmental Meetings.

- These are intergovernmental meetings, the structure of the French government is different, the structure of the Polish government is different, constitutionally we are responsible differently - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz at a press conference, when asked why the government did not invite the president to participate in this meeting (the Polish-French intergovernmental summit).

- These are normal events of consultations and intergovernmental meetings, so it is natural that on our side it is the Prime Minister, and on the French side, within their constitutional order, the President with ministers - he continued.


12:53

Kosiniak-Kamysz:

I Don't Think There Will Be a Split in PiS. Morawiecki's Position is Growing, So He Won't Leave the Party

- We certainly see Prime Minister Morawiecki's growing position, because Jarosław Kaczyński is stepping back in terms of his decisions. He first said that anyone who joins the association has no business here, and then an association is formed, so Morawiecki's position is definitely much stronger. I don't think there will be any split - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz at a press conference.

- Mateusz Morawiecki is in opposition to our government. I can debate, I can argue, but Mateusz Morawiecki is part of PiS and he won't stop being so. I think this is all just stretching the string, not breaking it. In my opinion, Prime Minister Morawiecki's position within PiS is growing, not shrinking, so he will not be leaving PiS - he continued, when asked about openness to cooperation with Morawiecki.


13:01

Kosiniak-Kamysz Asked About Pełczyńska-Nałęcz Voting Against Government Stance:

I Don't Think It Will Happen.

- I don't think it will happen, I think it's a desire to mark her position, but in the vote, all members of the club will be unequivocally pro-coalition, I believe - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz at a press conference, when asked if he understood the doubts and motivations of Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz that might lead her to vote against the government's stance, and whether he admitted the scenario of the governing coalition functioning without Poland 2050.


13:04

Tusk Publishes Photo with Macron:

We Act, We Don't Talk.

"We act, we don't talk," wrote Prime Minister Donald Tusk on social media, publishing a photo with the President of France.


15:08

Short on Money for the Army? Stop Blocking the Presidential Project. Sikorski Criticizes PiS, Czarnek Responds

"What shameless hypocrites. You shouldn't have voted to block SAFE." - Radosław Sikorski wrote on X, referring to Przemysław Czarnek's statement regarding the lack of arms orders from the Łucznik factory.

"Without SAFE, the PiS government fulfilled orders from the Arms Factory worth over PLN 2 billion. You did not spend PLN 20 billion from the budget on defense - this money could also have gone to Radom," - Przemysław Czarnek replied on X.

"Justifying delays in army modernization by the fact that you did not take out a loan from Brussels is an insult not only to the intelligence of Poles but also to the honor of soldiers who are waiting for concrete actions. Short on money for the army? Stop blocking the presidential SAFE 0% project!" - he continued in his post.


16:28

Hołownia Responds to Leo and Attacks Hennig-Kloska:

Olu, what goes around comes around.

- So, I'll tell you how it's going to be. Nobody will expel us from the coalition. Nobody will expel Włodzimierz Czarzasty from the office of the Marshal of the Sejm either - wrote Szymon Hołownia on social media.

- We invited Minister Hennig-Kloska to speak with us at our club meeting before the vote. She probably won't, because since the coalition has hinged on her - she's shot into geostationary orbit and thinks she's too important now to come to the Sejm and account for herself to MPs. Regarding "Clean Air", suspicious dealings at BOŚ, or the bizarre removal of the head of PAN, a biology professor, from the Supervisory Board of WFOŚ in Białystok - he emphasized.

- How will I vote, how will we vote? Responsibly. Not based on this or that name. Based on Poland's stability. What will remain after all this? Even more of the already well-known, inimitable coalition atmosphere - wrote the former marshal.

- I look at the quote below, and with the eyes of my soul, I already see this dialogue in the chamber, right after the vote: MP Aleksandra Leo to me: "Good doggie." Me to MP Leo: "Olu, what goes around comes around" - he added.


16:36

Tusk with Macron:

We Have No Illusions That the World Has Changed and That Europe Needs Maximum Unity in Difficult Times.

- We want to consistently support all those, primarily Ukraine, in their resistance against aggression, while taking care of transatlantic relations. I am very pleased that we both share the same determination to maintain transatlantic relations at the best possible level, and at the same time, we both have no illusions that the world has changed and that Europe needs maximum unity in these difficult times - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


16:50

Tusk:

I am glad France is Poland's most loyal partner in protecting the eastern border

- For now, I am primarily glad that France is Poland's most loyal partner when it comes to protecting the eastern border and supporting Ukraine, which in Poland we consider not only an expression of solidarity but also the defense of our border and our security - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


16:54

Tusk on Magyar's Request:

Of Course We Will Help Our Hungarian Friends.

- The future Prime Minister of Hungary, Peter Magyar, has already appealed for Poland to help Hungary fully return to everyday European life, not only during these difficult times when he was in opposition, but also today. Of course, we will help our Hungarian friends in this undoubtedly difficult process - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


16:56

Tusk:

We Will Be Able to Reactivate Cooperation within the Visegrad Group

- For me personally, it is important that we will be able to reactivate cooperation within the Visegrad Group. Poland will be able to fully play its role as a regional leader again, to the benefit of all countries in the region and for all of Europe - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


17:08

Tusk on Nuclear Cooperation with France:

Poland is in an Exclusive Group of Nations.

- By its very nature, a discussion about nuclear cooperation in the field of security is a discreet conversation. Poland is among a group of countries that have expressed interest and accepted France's invitation to cooperate closely in this area - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.

- This is an exclusive group, one that well understands the need for European solidarity and sovereignty. In the current era, this must also extend to nuclear deterrence capabilities - he indicated.

- We will continue our talks; we started discussing this even before the Nancy treaty and we will continue to work on it - he announced.


17:10

Tusk:

We are on the verge of deciding the location of Poland's second nuclear power plant

- We are on the verge of deciding the location of the future second nuclear power plant in Poland. We are convinced that to be energy-secure, investment in the atomic sector is essential, including a second, so-called large nuclear power plant. We are talking about these large, traditional reactors here, because we are also holding talks and preparatory works that could accelerate the program of so-called SMRs - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France, when asked whether concrete details regarding the planned second nuclear power plant in Poland were discussed.

- France is a very serious potential partner when it comes to building this second nuclear power plant. We are currently in an exploratory phase, and whoever presents Poland with the most attractive offer will, of course, become our partner in the construction of the second nuclear power plant - he continued.

- What we discussed was not only, of course, the parameters that every partner must meet, but also something very important regarding nuclear energy, which is also a matter of trust. We need partners whom we can trust in a sense that is timeless, and therefore France will be treated as one of [...] the most serious partners in all these most demanding military, energy, and space projects - he further said.


17:11

Tusk:

The Decision to Extend the Sanctions Exemption on Russian Oil is Not Fully Understandable

- The decision by our American friends to extend the sanctions exemption on Russian oil is not entirely understandable to me. This all shows that this war [in Iran] benefits no one. And that its swift end lies in the interest of all of us, and above all, the Western community - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


17:14

Tusk:

France May Take On Part of Responsibility for Protecting Rzeszów Hub

- It is also not excluded that France will take on part of the responsibilities for protecting Rzeszów, Jasionka, and thus the hub necessary for transports to Ukraine to remain safe - Prime Minister Donald Tusk stated at a press conference with the President of France.


17:29

Tusk:

Permanent French Military Presence in Poland is Already a Reality

- The permanent presence of French troops in Poland is already a fact. For now, to the extent we have jointly deemed sufficient. We also see this as a pilot for further cooperation, I am referring here to the presence of 250 French soldiers on Polish soil, but also to joint exercises and maneuvers in France, which will also take place in Poland - stated Prime Minister Donald Tusk at a press conference with the President of France.


18:21

Bogucki on Żurek:

The Time for Just Judgment Will Also Come.

- I have a message for Minister Żurek. Mr. Minister, my name is Zbigniew Bogucki. I believe that after all this, after these acts of lawlessness, after what has been happening for over 2 years, but also during the period when Minister Żurek was appointed Minister of Justice, and when law in Poland will still mean law, the Constitution will be respected and enforced, and there will be no neo-rule of law or fighting democracy, Minister Żurek will remain shaken and confused by all of this, and I believe the time for a just judgment will also come. This is not about vengeance, or about the reckonings that the ruling party talks about today - stated Zbigniew Bogucki on TV Republika.


18:31

Bogucki:

Motion on Competence Dispute to be Filed with the Constitutional Tribunal This Week

- This week, the President will file a motion with the Constitutional Tribunal to resolve a competence dispute. This means whether it was even possible to conduct this farce, this buffoonery, which took place in the Sejm and call it an oath-taking. To be clear - the President is fully aware that this cannot be done, but he is a statesman, and he is following the path of the Constitution - stated Zbigniew Bogucki on TV Republika.


18:58

Bosak:

There's a chance to dismiss Hennig-Kloska if Poland 2050 MPs vote in line with the national interest

- There is a chance [to dismiss Paulina Hennig-Kloska] because she is a very bad minister, and many people in the government – though they won't admit it – agree with us – said Krzysztof Bosak in the TV Republika program “Ewa Bugała. Wszystko jasne”.

- Of course, there is a chance because a majority can form if the MPs of Poland 2050, who have already understood that they nominated a very inappropriate person to the government – and in particular, I believe that leader Szymon Hołownia has understood this – vote in line with the national interest, and not under the Prime Minister's pressure. However, whether they are mentally prepared to vote in line with the national interest, and not according to the Prime Minister's pressure – we don't know yet – he continued.


19:07

Bosak:

Hennig-Kloska is a very bad minister, and many in the government agree with us, though they won't admit it

- There is a chance [to dismiss Paulina Hennig-Kloska] because she is a very bad minister, and many people in the government – though they won't admit it – agree with us – said Krzysztof Bosak on the program “Ewa Bugała. Everything Clear” on TV Republika.


19:08

Bosak Asked About a Coalition with Civic Platform:

My Opinion on Tusk Hasn’t Changed.

- I am an opposition politician, I am against this government. I was in the extra-parliamentary opposition strongly protesting the first Tusk government. I was one of the few politicians detained by the police during anti-government demonstrations at that time. My opinion on Donald Tusk hasn’t changed - said Krzysztof Bosak in the TV Republika program “Ewa Bugała. Everything is Clear.”

Responding to the remark that some Confederation politicians do not rule out a coalition with Tusk, he replied: - In my opinion, too many people are focusing on this kind of speculation, who rules out what, who allows what. What matters is who votes for what, who submits what projects.


19:11

Bosak on Morawiecki’s Association:

I’m Not Particularly Fond of Schismatic Initiatives.

- For now, we don’t know what this association [Rozwój Plus] actually is, other than the fact that it is probably a schism within PiS. Generally, I’m not particularly fond of schismatic initiatives. Little good ever comes from them. They are mediocre, to put it mildly. Moreover, the vague name doesn’t entice me - Krzysztof Bosak said on the program “Ewa Bugała. Wszystko jasne” on TV Republika.


19:18

Bosak:

I am astonished that so many PiS MPs are getting involved in Morawiecki's association

- Mateusz Morawiecki's achievements as Prime Minister, especially during his second term, also don't leave a good impression on me. Frankly, I am astonished that so many PiS MPs are getting involved in this [association]. It seems to me that this shows the extent of some reluctance or loss of authority on the part of PiS leader Jarosław Kaczyński - said Krzysztof Bosak in the program 'Ewa Bugała. Everything Clear' on TV Republika.


19:21

Bosak:

PiS Politicians Must Account for Mistakes, Especially During Their Second Term

- From the beginning of our term, we have said that PiS politicians must sort out the situation within their own party. Firstly – they must account for the mistakes that undoubtedly occurred, especially during their second term, when it comes to governing – said Krzysztof Bosak on the program “Ewa Bugała. Wszystko jasne” on TV Republika.

- Secondly – they must clarify the identity and goals of their party, because that Katowice program congress was a review of all sorts of figures and ideas, from A to Z, but it did not provide answers as to what they actually want to do in politics and in voting – he continued.


19:31

Bosak on a broad right-wing Senate pact:

It is possible.

- In my opinion, [a right-wing Senate pact] is possible, in order to win in specific electoral districts and introduce senators to the Senate. Everyone who was not in the last centrist-leftist Senate pact should discuss this pact - said Krzysztof Bosak in the program “Ewa Bugała. Wszystko jasne” on TV Republika.

- Our viewers are intelligent and they know, they can look into the data, who created [...] the centrist-leftist Senate pact. But it is known that the Left was there, PSL was probably there, and of course Civic Coalition, Poland 2050 were there - he continued.

- Those who were not in that pact, meaning they lean more to the right of the center, can discuss forming a counter-alliance - he indicated.

- If it becomes narrow, it makes no sense, because then the one who did not enter [the pact] will put forward their candidate and the other side will win. So, either broad, or not at all - he stressed.

Bosak:

There's no need for all nine-year-olds in Poland to be vaccinated against HPV at millions of zlotys

- [We need to] Start managing well and start counting money. Not to run a program of shifting responsibility onto local governments, onto doctors, onto various institutions, but to face the truth about how much money we have, where it's being spent, and to prioritize expenditures - said Krzysztof Bosak in the program “Ewa Bugała. Wszystko jasne” on TV Republika.

- In my opinion, the government is currently spending money on things that are not primary concerns, for example, vaccinating children against HPV. The vaccine, as the chairman of our club has revealed, has not been tested as was declared, and it is a venereal disease that threatens individuals who are sexually active - he stated.

- I am not sure if all nine-year-olds in Poland should be vaccinated for millions. In other words – I am sure that there is no such need at all - he assessed.

Grabiec:

The President Defends Scammers, Creators of a Financial Pyramid. This is Incomprehensible

- We found it absurd that the president, that the parliamentary opposition could defend the interests of a financial pyramid. Unfortunately, it turned out that the president has consistently defended the creators of this pyramid all along, defending scammers from justice. This is incomprehensible, such an action simply boggles the mind - said Jan Grabiec in an interview with Justyna Dobrosz-Oracz on TVP Info's "Question of the Day".

Grabiec on the Law Vetoed by Nawrocki:

Part of the Provisions Would Concern Zondacrypto.

- The act would partially take effect from the moment it entered into force, 14 days after publication, so several months ago. And part of the provisions of this act would concern Zondycrypto in the current situation - said Jan Grabiec on TVP Info.

- Of course, Zondycrypto would not be fully supervised, because according to European rules, that was to happen from July 1st, but the mechanisms that were written into it, such as the possibility of the KNF (Financial Supervision Authority) acting, delisting Zondycrypto from the registry in Poland, sending certain warnings to clients, would be possible immediately - he continued.

- The fact that we do not have this law means that further financial pyramids can operate as alleged cryptocurrency exchanges and continue to defraud Poles in a month, two months, three months; it can be like with the SKOKs affair (cooperative savings and credit unions) - he went on to say.

Grabiec:

If Macron Had the Will to Meet Nawrocki, the Meeting Would Certainly Have Happened

- Honestly, I don't know. Probably if he wanted to, he would have met. President Macron is a seasoned, experienced politician, and if he had such a will, the meeting would certainly have taken place – said Jan Grabiec in TVP Info, when asked if President Macron did not want to meet with President Nawrocki.

- I think the possibilities of the Presidential Palace are a bit broader than just fulfilling the instructions or orders of Prime Minister Tusk. In many matters, they can be sovereign, and in this matter, they could also have established contacts and signaled the need for a meeting – he continued.

- Of course not – he went on to say, when pressed whether there was any pressure or blockage of the meeting.

Grabiec on Macron's visit to Poland:

It is unbecoming of the Presidential Palace to complain about being overlooked.

- The role of the President of France is a bit different from that of the President of Poland [...] moreover, these are intergovernmental consultations, with the government and the prime minister - said Jan Grabiec on TVP Info.

- But I think such a meeting at the presidential level could also take place. However, this kind of talk, like "What about me? What about me? You overlooked me, why can't I?" is, after all, unserious. It is unbecoming of the Presidential Palace to complain about being overlooked and not participating in an important political event - he continued.

Grabiec:

You're Either In the Coalition or Outside It – A Decision Poland 2050 Must Make

- I cannot imagine a situation where any member of the coalition would vote against a minister who is part of that coalition, especially since Paulina Hennig-Kloska was recommended for the ministerial position precisely by this group - Jan Grabiec stated on TVP Info, when asked if Poland 2050 voting for a vote of no confidence against Paulina Hennig-Kloska would mean the end of the coalition in its current form.

- No, it is obvious that someone who votes against the government in political votes places themselves outside the governing coalition - he continued, when asked if the Prime Minister had issued an ultimatum.

- Gentlemen do not discuss facts; I believe the situation is clear. It is understood that a vote on the presence of one minister or another in the government, initiated by the opposition, cannot be the subject of any political bargaining or agreements. You are either in the coalition, or you are outside the coalition, and this is a decision that the Poland 2050 parliamentary club must make - he added.
