“In a situation where the Russians are starting a hybrid war on the border with Finland, i.e. a NATO country, in a situation where we have a really huge threat to the security of the Polish state, where these kinds of discussions are turning the state upside down , We send many signals that we are an internally undefined state, “it is a ‘wink’ towards Moscow,” Prof. tells the wPolityce.pl portal. Piotr Grochmalski, security expert, refers to plans to liquidate the Russian Influence Committee.
““A Deadly Strategy from the Perspective of Poland and Central Europe”
Borys Budka, a member of parliament from the Civic Coalition, informed Polsat today that his party had submitted a motion to dismiss all members of the Verification Commission for Russian Influence. However, Budka is not only interested in liquidation. According to the politician, such a committee should not work at all because it is ‘contrary to the constitution’. As the KO MP argues, the members of the verification committee – whom he described as ‘PiS officials’ – do nothing and still receive compensation.
The chairman of the Sejm, Szymon Hołownia, also speaks in a similar tone.
If there was some Russian influence in Poland in the years referred to in the law establishing this commission, why do we have these services? We should have known about it a long time ago and we should feel safe with this knowledge
– he said at a press conference.
We ask about the plans of the opposition that is currently seeking power Prof. Piotr Grochmalskisafety expert.
The very fact that attempts are being made to liquidate this committee explains everything. In the situation of the ongoing war in Ukraine, a situation in which we are dealing with similar initiatives undertaken in many countries that seek to thoroughly analyze the issue of Russian influence on European institutions, this is something extraordinary.
– says our interlocutor. According to Grochmalski, attempts to liquidate such a commission, even in a normal situation, “would be perceived as scandalous.”
If the Civic Platform nevertheless takes this kind of action, it proves its determination to actually block the disclosure of further documents, after those revealed in the documentary series “Reset”, professionally prepared by Polish Public Television.
– says the expert.
These documents showed the extent of the influence and decisions of the government of Donald Tusk, which were actually related to the implementation of a deadly strategy from the point of view of the security of Poland and Central Europe.
– indicates.
“‘A powerful bond between Germany and Russia’
As the interlocutor of the wPolityce.pl portal notes, the decisions in question were “taken jointly with the government of Angela Merkel.”
They opened the way to war for Putin. There is currently a wide debate about Germany’s complicity in the war. The former German ambassador to Poland, Arndt Freytag von Loringhoven, explained this issue and said that Russia was to blame because it attacked Ukraine, but Nord Stream and Nord Stream 2 were a mistake and, moreover, a strictly political initiative.
– points out Prof. Grochmalski.
Everyone knew this, but the German government, Chancellor Merkel and Chancellor Scholz claimed that the NS1 and NS2 gas pipelines were strictly economic initiatives. Loringhoven explained that they had been misled because it was an initiative that was supposed to closely link these two economies, the German and the Russian, and thus reduce the risk of Russia going astray. However, in a recently published book, the former German ambassador to Poland clearly states that this linking of the two economies would be at the expense of the Central European countries.
– he adds.
There is no doubt that the geopolitical concept applied at that time was very dangerous. This powerful bond between Germany and Russia came at the expense of the security of the entire European Union, but especially of Poland as an important country on NATO’s eastern flank.
– emphasizes the security expert.
““Back to brutal politics”
In a situation where the Russians are starting a hybrid war on the border with Finland, i.e. a NATO country, in a situation where we have a really huge threat to the security of the Polish state, where these kinds of discussions are turning the state upside down , By sending a lot of signals that we are an internally undefined state, it is a kind of nod to Moscow. This type of signal will be very warmly received in Berlin and Moscow
– says Prof. Grochmalski.
This is reminiscent of a situation we have already faced – a return to brutal politics using media reporting, claiming that the liquidation of such a committee is an action to reduce the threat of Russian influence or it suggests that PiS is a pro-Russian party. kind of idiotic stories, which are as blatant a lie as the various kinds of nonsense created by the Germans about democracy in Poland and some media that wrote that there is a ‘dictatorship’ in Poland
– says the interlocutor of wPolityce.pl.
