I can confirm that I will not be in the new government. This must be a new government that takes into account the results of these elections, takes into account the public voice and the expectations of society – said Jacek Sasin, Minister of State Assets, on TVP Info on Thursday.
Despite the fact that today in the Polish Parliament another parliamentary majority was formed (…), we show that certain rules of democracy apply, and these rules of democracy say: the party that won the elections , which has the largest club in the world, parliament is tasked with forming a government.
– said the head of the Ministry of State Assets.
He noted that Law and Justice will show that it takes the mission of forming a government seriously and can open itself to the expectations of other groups, “not just those who voted for us.”
This will be evident from both the program of this government and its composition
– emphasized the minister.
I can confirm (…) that I will not be in this new government. This is also a consequence of what I just said. This must be a new government, it must be a government that takes into account the results of these elections, that takes into account the public voice, the public’s expectation that this government is created on a broader political platform than just the platform of the United Right
– said Jacek Sasin.
He added that the new cabinet will be “less political, more knowledgeable and more focused on showing our openness to other environments.”
It will also be a government that wants to implement the key program demands of other groups in addition to the Law and Justice program.
– he pointed out.
Sasin pointed out that the common denominator of the new government will be Poland’s security, military, social and energy, and “the unhindered development of Poland.”
