“The perversity of Tusk’s thinking and speaking is very well known to the Poles, no one will fall for it, which is why media such as “Gazeta Wyborcza” or TVN, among others, want to replace him. But Tusk cannot be replaced, because there are too many different “traps” for him. He himself will not resign, because he should retire in Poland, and he has not even dreamed of it,” PiS MEP Bogdan Rzońca tells the wPolityce.pl portal.
wPolityce.pl: 4.6 thousand. euros per month gross, so approximately 21 thousand. PLN gross – according to the findings of the daily newspaper “Fakt”, this is the European pension that Donald Tusk, the leader of PO, has been receiving for more than a year. How would you react to this information?
Bogdan Rzonca: He talks about poverty all the time, so I think that’s not enough for him. We keep hearing from Donald Tusk that we supposedly have a crisis in Poland that is solely the fault of the Polish government. After all, the president of the PO does not seem to remember the war in Ukraine at all when he talks about it, he gives the impression that he has never heard of a pandemic, knew nothing about the high prices in the European Union or those in the EU budget documents for this year and that we are facing a crisis, inflation all over Europe.
Tusk shocks Poland with false information that only Poland has high prices. Meanwhile, he is doing very well himself, he has a pension that many people have never dreamed of. What Tusk presents in the media is very unfair.
Perhaps he hopes that the Poles will forget what it was like, that they will forget about PLN 2 pension increases, the unemployment rate of 13.5 percent. or about how more than 2 million Poles left for bread during his party’s rule. It’s an attempt to divert attention from what he was doing. Today he pretends to be a “savior”, “sun of Peru”, while reality is raging. Poles remember his rule in a very different way, and his role as the “King of Europe” and a staunch ally of Putin and Merkel will never be forgotten – don’t let him be fooled.
Although Donald Tusk’s government decided to raise the retirement age when he turned 65 last April, the leader of the PO benefited from the choice made possible for Poland by the United Right government. How to evaluate this kind of attitude?
Everyone knows that he did not overwork himself in Brussels, that there was great laziness in his environment. Nevertheless, he naturally took advantage of all possible refuges
The perversity of Tusk’s thinking and speaking is very well known to the Poles, no one will fall for it, which is why media such as “Gazeta Wyborcza” or TVN, among others, want to replace him. But Tusk cannot be replaced, because there are too many different “traps” for him. He himself will not resign, because then he would have to retire in Poland, and he does not even dream of that.
Very interestingly, since their loss of power in 2015, Civic Platform politicians have become extremely sensitive to poverty. This is especially evident in recent months and years, which have not been easy for anyone in Europe or in the world. Not a day goes by that Donald Tusk doesn’t give a tearful speech about high prices or Poland’s deteriorating financial situation. Why did he not see these problems during his reign?
Donald Tusk said there was no magic button labeled “low prices”, sneered that he didn’t know where the money for Poland was buried. He was not at all interested in the fate of pensioners, young people or high unemployment. He was focused on fighting for the Europe the Germans wanted, for Europe for the few, Europe for the richest, hence such an assessment of him today in Poland.
The hypocrisy of Donald Tusk is enormous. In such a situation, any normal politician would sink to the ground after what he and his team did during 8 years of government. Instead, he thinks he can fool young people who will fall for the new story about his rule and his possibilities.
Meanwhile, neither his reign was good nor are his current chances good. They are even weaker, there is no economic proposal for Poland.
Or is the memory of some PO adherents, regardless of age and such, generally rather short or rather selective? An example is the Tusk government’s policy towards Russia, which you already mentioned, and the current nervous reactions to all forms of exhortation, which were, to say the least, very naive. Does Donald Tusk hope that this memory of other aspects of his reign will be just as selective?
Of course, the foreign policy of Tusk and his cronies has collapsed. The chairman of the PO certainly has great credit in allowing Putin into the salons and in Germany’s dominance in the EU. These are his greatest “earnings”.
However, he did nothing for Poland. He had and has only one task: to weaken Poland’s position in the international arena, and here he finds his audience in the left-liberal Europe, which – as Mrs von der Leyen said – is waiting for him in the chair of the minister- president in Poland.
But that will never happen again. Poles are too smart and Donald Tusk’s time is already over.
Thank you very much for the interview.
