Morawiecki:

The Mayor of Lviv Can Only Apologize and Ask for Forgiveness

- What is this supposed to mean? The Mayor of Lviv is threatening Jarosław Kaczyński with a lawsuit? The leader of Law and Justice, who stood by Ukraine at the most difficult moment of the war, not on the side of calculations and cowardice? This is a disgrace. This is a scandal - said Mateusz Morawiecki in a recording published on X.

- The Mayor of Lviv should remember very well who acted then, and who only talked. Without Polish aid, Lviv might look completely different today. When the Mayor of Lviv glorifies the murderers from the Ukrainian Insurgent Army, when he defends the symbols of Banderism, he is not only attacking Polish memory. He is attacking Polish-Ukrainian relations and doing exactly what suits Russia - he continued.

- You had a chance to behave with dignity and responsibility. You had a chance to say clearly: we remember the Polish victims, the terrible Volhynian massacre, we reject the cult of criminals, we are building the future on truth. That time has passed. That's why I say clearly: there will be no consent to the cult of Bandera. There will be no consent to the insult of the memory of the Volhynia victims - he continued.

- The Mayor of Lviv can only do one more thing: apologize and ask for forgiveness - he added.

Pełczyńska-Nałęcz:

Do Poles Want Donald Tusk's 5th Government? I Leave This Question, I Believe It's Time for Change

- Do Poles want Donald Tusk's 5th government? I leave this question. I believe it's time for change, that it's truly time for change, but for change on the democratic side. The democratic side cannot constantly operate on the principle of 'as things were', because people need change, because we live in different times. This elite injustice must end, because it is simply, well, exactly - stated Katarzyna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz in an interview with Jakub Wiech.

- All these outbursts concerning doctors, concerning healthcare fast tracks, all this emotion around the second threshold, when people see tax havens, even what is happening. I don't know if the editor is looking at short-term rentals, because that's another story where the majority suffers because they are ordinary residents, and some minority tries to carve out a privilege for themselves to organize hotels in regular apartment buildings - she continued.

- So, at this moment, we, as the only party in the ruling coalition – and I emphasize this even with surprise, because I'm surprised where the Left is – are saying "no" - she added.

Czarzasty on Trzaskowski:

He Got a Yellow Card, He Didn't Deserve a Red One.

- If we're talking about Mr. Trzaskowski, he got a yellow card, he didn't deserve a red one - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in a conversation with journalists in the Sejm.

Czarzasty:

The Left Will Expect Very Radical Changes in Healthcare

- The Left will certainly have expectations regarding very radical changes in healthcare. Moreover, these changes and proposals have already been announced, and we are awaiting the initiative of the Minister of Health. Our changes concern the introduction of a maximum salary for doctors, and we believe this would be reasonable. Secondly, a very thorough verification of working hours - stated Włodzimierz Czarzasty in a conversation with journalists in the Sejm.

- I believe a serious discussion should be held on separating private and public practice. We also believe that the use of equipment must be very well controlled. In Poland, hospitals have very good equipment, and we think it's wrong that this equipment is not used all the time, for example, due to a lack of funds for examinations - he continued.

Bielan Returns Ukrainian Order:

A Gesture of Solidarity with President Nawrocki's Decision.

"I am returning the Ukrainian order "For Merit." This is a gesture of solidarity with the decision of President Karol Nawrocki and a firm objection to the shameful policy of the Ukrainian authorities." - Adam Bielan wrote on Facebook.

"These are not actions against the Ukrainian nation. We must continue to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia, hoping for Kyiv's swift victory. The enemy is in Moscow. However, a good alliance and a common future must be based on mutual respect, understanding, and truth." - he continued in his post.

"I expect from the Ukrainian side repentance and an immediate abandonment of the identity policy based on the bestial crime and the Volhynia lie." - he emphasized.

Szefernaker on Record-Breaking Trust in Nawrocki:

This Result Shows Poles Value Calm, Courage, and Responsibility.

- Record trust of Poles in President Karol Nawrocki! 54.8% trust, over 8% increase, the best result in IBRiS polls for Onet in history - Paweł Szefernaker wrote on social media.

- This result shows that Poles value calm, courage, and responsibility. Poland deserves strong leadership - emphasized the Head of the Presidential Chancellery.

Błaszczak:

I am returning the Order of Merit awarded to me by the Ukrainian authorities

- I am returning the Order of Merit awarded to me by the Ukrainian authorities. This is a gesture of solidarity with all families who have waited for decades for the opportunity to honor their loved ones with dignity, and who today still encounter obstacles - wrote Mariusz Błaszczak on social media.

- This is an expression of protest against the stance of the current Ukrainian authorities. At the same time, it is an expression of my support for the stance of President Karol Nawrocki, who has shown that the memory of Polish victims and the dignity of our state are not subject to negotiation. True reconciliation can only be built on the foundation of truth and respect for the victims - emphasized the head of the PiS parliamentary club.

Żukowska Appeals to Tusk:

This Needs to be Addressed, or You Will Lose the Election and Won't Be Prime Minister.

- Not just this scandal, because we're not talking solely and exclusively about the Southern Hospital, but about everything connected with healthcare. This could be a story that causes voters not to renew, not just for Civic Coalition, but also for us, our mandate to govern or co-govern in a year and a half, and that worries me - Anna Maria Żukowska said on RMF FM, when asked if "this is a scandal that could sink Civic Coalition, jeopardize its chances of further governing."

- I consistently appeal [...] Mr. Prime Minister, this needs to be addressed, because otherwise you will lose the election and you will not be Prime Minister - she continued.

Żukowska on Sobierańska-Grenda:

No Influence in Government, Unable to Stand Her Ground.

"I would say she simply got lost in action [Jolanta Sobierańska-Grenda]. She only reappeared yesterday, and for several days, almost a week, the main face defending against arguments attacking Civic Coalition was MEP Bartosz Arłukowicz, who, as it happens, has nothing directly to do with the government. So it's a bit strange that the Prime Minister deployed an MEP and not a minister," Anna Maria Żukowska said on RMF FM.

"That is the Prime Minister's decision," she continued when asked if the Minister of Health should resign.

"Minister Grenda has no influence in the government precisely because she is not a member of a political party, she is not firmly established in any party, she is unable to stand her ground, to bang her fist on the table. She is essentially only able to do what the Prime Minister says, and the Prime Minister is also a bit of a procrastinator when it comes to healthcare, because for many months he has been delaying making bold decisions," she went on to say.


08:36

Żukowska:

Whoever is Minister of Health, I deeply sympathize with them, as it's not about their name, but about funding and systemic changes

- Whoever is Minister of Health, I deeply sympathize with them, as it's not about their name, it's about the way healthcare is financed and the systemic changes, which, as I hear today on your program on RMF, the head of the NIL [Naczelna Izba Lekarska - Supreme Medical Council] is also contesting - said Anna Maria Żukowska on RMF FM, when asked if the Minister of Health should resign or be dismissed, and if it is a failure of the Prime Minister.


08:33

Żukowska Asked About Support for a Referendum on Trzaskowski's Recall:

The Left Hasn't Taken a Stance Yet.

- The Left hasn't taken a stance on this matter yet, because it's a fresh topic. The board and the Warsaw council of New Left will decide on this, and we will address it at the appropriate time - said Anna Maria Żukowska on RMF FM, when asked whether the Left would support a referendum on recalling Rafał Trzaskowski.


08:31

Balczun:

Zelensky's Absence Has Ultimately Led to a Peaceful Conference

- There is no lowering of the rank of this event here, the political representation is very serious, and I think that the fact that President Zelensky did not come has ultimately led to this conference taking place peacefully, and above all, we can concentrate on discussing business - stated Wojciech Balczun on TVP Info.


08:30

Balczun:

Actions Intended to Sow Discord with Ukraine Have Not Worked

- All these actions, which were intended to sow discord between us and the Ukrainian side, which were meant to escalate emotions, often justified emotions, but is now the moment to escalate those emotions? It didn't work, of course, in the context of this conference, and that's the most important thing, because here, in this case, a certain kind of business pragmatism counts - stated Wojciech Balczun on TVP Info.


08:29

Żukowska:

The Left in Warsaw has decided not to grant the Mayor absolution

- The Left in Warsaw has decided not to grant the Mayor absolution. We are not in a coalition in the Warsaw local government, in the city council, so this is not an unexpected move - said Anna Maria Żukowska in the "Morning Interview" on RMF FM.


08:23

Balczun:

Poland has justified expectations towards the Ukrainian side, but the success of the conference in Gdańsk is undeniable

- Let us remember that populists and those who want to disrupt our relations with Ukraine are looking for any good pretext to reinforce such a narrative, and they also find fertile ground - stated Wojciech Balczun on TVP Info.

- We have difficult emotions between us, things we need to work through, there is no doubt about it, Poland has justified expectations towards the Ukrainian side here, but the success of this conference, which is concluding today, is truly undeniable - he continued.

- Dozens of heads of state, several thousand guests, representatives of business from all over the world, Poland, and Ukraine have arrived. I participated in dozens of meetings. They are all constructive - added the head of MAP.
