The proposal to remove the president through a referendum has nothing to do with regulations; this misleads public opinion – emphasized Presidential Minister Małgorzata Paprocka.
Chmaj proposes the idea of dismissing the president through a referendum
Lawyer Marek Chmaj – since 2019, on the recommendation of the Civic Coalition, vice-chairman of the State Tribunal – stated in the program ‘Dudek on Politics’ that in his opinion “there is a procedure to dismiss the president before the end” of the term. ”
“In short, ordering new elections before the end of the term, if the population agrees through a referendum. Such a hypothetical possibility also exists.”
– he said.
““The Constitution clearly states”
The presidential minister considered Chmaj’s proposal as “original and has nothing to do with the regulations.”
It is sad when people who want to be considered authorities – especially in the field of constitutional law – mislead public opinion
– said Paprocka.
The Constitution clearly states how the President of the Republic of Poland is elected, how long the term of office lasts and the ways in which the presidential office can be vacated.
– emphasizes Paprocka, pointing out that this happens in the event of the death of the President, resignation from office or dismissal of the President by a decision of the State Tribunal.
Our constitutional order does not provide for the dismissal of the president in a referendum
– she added.
““Political Jokes”
The presidential minister pointed out that President Andrzej Duda has the strongest social mandate in Poland, and that more than 10.5 million citizens voted for him in the second-term elections.
It’s hard to understand the purpose of these kinds of statements, other than political fun. Fortunately – and this brings great joy – there are clear comments on the political scene that call this proposal downright absurd
– she stated.
