“Poland does not agree to automatic relocation. This decision has already been made and expressed by Poland. (…) There are no doubts and no political dispute here,” said PSL president Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz on the program “Gość Wiadomości” (TVP Info).
We have a clear opinion. Less automatic moving. And today the Polish government should ask for money from the European Union to keep Ukrainians in Poland. Not for Ukrainians, but for Poles.(…) For all those, for organizations that helped. This money is needed in Poland and to receive it you need to apply for it. It’s like in a lottery. You must fill in the coupon for a chance to win. (…) Poland has performed a miracle because there are no refugee camps, there is no humanitarian catastrophe. We really deserve the Nobel Peace Prize
– said Kosiniak-Kamysz.
Referring to the forced relocation mechanism, the president of PSL said:
There will be no such project and there are no such plans. There is no support for automatism on either side. There is our other proposal in the Senate and I would like the government to support it so that there are specific requirements for passenger transport – either a Polish driver’s license or a basic Polish language exam.
As he added:
I believe that solidarity and brotherhood do not arise from any legislation, just as good manners and customs do not arise from our culture, worldview and our views. To close your eyes to what Poland has done since February 2022, to the millions of refugees who have traveled through Poland and the more than a million who remain and the billions of zlotys paid by the Polish taxpayer, is simply not fair.
What about the opposition’s offer?
Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz referred to the issue of valorization of the 500 plus benefit.
Valorisation yes, but only for working people and we will table such an amendment
– said the president of the PSL.
The conversation also included a question about one opposition list.
There won’t be one list. One list failed in the European elections. A list lost in Hungary
he noticed.
Whether Germans or Italians or any other country, it is in the Polish home that we determine our choices. The Poles decide
he stressed.
