Michał Kobosko, First Vice President of Poland 2050 and leader of the Warsaw Third Way List, took a photo with Agnieszka Holland and posted a long post on Instagram about her film “Green Border”. Cezary Kaźmierczak, chairman of the Association of Entrepreneurs and Employers, commented on this ironically on the X platform. “The Third Way decided to break the bank in the countryside, especially in eastern Poland. I didn’t expect Michał to be such a strategist,” he wrote.
Holland film and Koboski’s entry
Although most Poles have not yet had the chance to watch the film “The Green Border”, the picture is already causing significant controversy and it seems that opposition politicians did not really know how to respond to it. Now they are slowly starting to build their story around the production. Just like those in power, who view the Dutch film more in the context of the director’s media statements and her opinion about the situation on the Polish-Belarusian border.
Yesterday, PO leader Donald Tusk rushed to defend the “Green Border” and the Netherlands. In turn, Michał Kobosko, member of the Third Way in Warsaw (let us recall that this coalition committee is formed by Polska 2050 of Szymon Hołownia together with PSL, which would be a party representing the interests of the Polish countryside), placed a extensive message. entry and a photo with Agnieszka Holland on Instagram.
This is a very important film. A film that stirs emotions and will leave no one indifferent. It can be seen as a deeply humanistic image of the migration, or rather the wandering, of peoples, which is becoming increasingly popular in Europe before our eyes. You can, as PiS wants, try to use the ‘Green Border’ for a fierce electoral fight, and almost make Mrs. Agnieszka Holland enemy number 1 of the Polish nation. We have known for a long time that PiS will not allow any evil to remain in power. Any nonsense is possible.
– wrote Michał Kobosko on Instagram and posted a photo with Agnieszka Holland. He added that the director admitted that she may fear for her safety and is currently facing hatred that she has never experienced before.
Kobosko appealed to “politruks and PiS trolls (sometimes temporarily as ministers or even better)” (nothing beats respect for Poland’s democratic choice, right?) to watch the film and only then evaluate and comment.
To be clear, it is clear to me that the security of the country is of paramount importance. Our borders must be safe and well secured. At the same time, every human being is a human being, and not a subhuman or superhuman. Everyone deserves respect – and the right to live with dignity
– added.
If this fundamental right is not respected in one part of the world, an individual or family has every right to seek survival elsewhere. I am not in favor of fully opening our borders to all non-European arrivals. But procedures and laws must be respected. Who else will we be – and will we be able to look each other in the eye?
– asked Kobosko.
“The Third Way decided to break the bank in the villages.”
Some commentators believe that a politician representing a group that works with PSL in these elections and who, at least verbally and declaratively, still occasionally refers to Wincenty Witos, will not be helped by a photo with Agnieszka Holland.
Checkmate. The Third Way decided to break the bank in the countryside, especially in eastern Poland. I didn’t expect Michał to be such a strategist
– Cezary Kaźmierczak from the Association of Entrepreneurs and Employers responded ironically on the X platform.
Kobosko has posted a beautiful, emotive and emotional entry – it is a pity that it does not capture the essence of the crisis on the Polish-Belarusian border, namely that it was inspired by Lukashenko from beginning to end. In other words, Koboska’s Instagram statement is the essence of “cool Polishness” and “beautiful spirituality,” but it is addressed to people who are aware of it (unlike the director himself, who, as she admits, has never border with Belarus). ) of what lies behind the wave of migrants will rather not arrive.
