The new government was very eager to pursue policies favorable to German interests. Under the guise of protecting nature, combating national megalomania, under the guise of Europeanization or in the shadow of the scandal of the forcible seizure of public media, Donald Tusk’s team has already taken the first steps that are clearly are in line with German interests and are detrimental to Poland’s raison d’être.
1.. Pushing Poland away from the Oder
Climate Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska announced the creation of new national parks. One of these is to cover the Lower Oder region, which will prevent Poland from organizing inland navigation there. The international coalition “Time for the Oder” itself admitted that after creating a national park there, most of the water route through Germany could be designated and benefit the German economy.
2.. Stop the CPK project
Maciej Lasek became the new head of the project on behalf of the government. He is a strong opponent of the construction of the CPK in general; the government’s rhetoric speaks of delusions of grandeur, and expert analyzes speak of potential competition for Germany. On Friday it emerged that Maciej Lasek was a personal client of Barbara Czerniawska, responsible for the social initiative “No to CPK projects throughout Poland”.
3.. Agree to the migration pact
On December 20, the EU reached an agreement on the “key elements” of the migration pact. The assumptions include guidelines for special control of non-European arrivals, but they also assume guidelines for the relocation of immigrants. either their admission to the country or their payment to the budget of the European Union.
4.. Pro-German propaganda
It is no coincidence that the pacification of the TVP INFO and “Wiadomości” programs coincided with decisions at EU summits on immigration. The paralysis of public television made it impossible to inform Poles about German policy towards immigrants, and the program ‘7.30 pm’ is politically correct insofar as it spoke of an uprising on the anniversary of the Greater Poland Uprising against ‘Prussia’ and not ‘Germans’ (in 1918 Prussia no longer existed for half a century, but the German Empire existed).
5.. ““Contempt” according to German instructions
Although minimizing the influence of the previous ruling team is common in Polish democracy, Donald Tusk’s policies after December 13 coincide with the recommendations of the German press. For example, in the first half of December, berliner-zeitung.de wrote that the new coalition is “trying to make the country democratic again using undemocratic methods,” while “Die Welt” encouraged the contempt of PiS MPs who defend the public media against illegal takeovers. .
In the next episodes
But the already begun processes of subordinating Polish interests to the German raison d’être are not the entire subject. There are many indications that the new government will take further steps in this direction. Thus, the verification of Defense Department weapons orders from South Korea will likely lead to purchases from Germany; abandoning attempts to obtain reparations from Germany for World War II and limiting the expansion of port infrastructure in Świnoujście seem inevitable. In the latter case, Julian Barlen, an SPD politician from Mecklenburg, has already expressed the hope that an agreement on this will be reached with Donald Tusk.
We are also waiting for the development of the ‘wind turbine scandal’, as the proposals for solutions regarding wind farms already look like support for German industry. When voting on the law, a strange correlation was noted between the transfer of 5 billion euros to Poland by the KPO and Siemens’ losses of exactly the same amount, which right-wing politicians associate with the bailout program for this company through orders from our country.
Donald Tusk did not report to the Parliamentary Ethics Committee and did not bring to court the case in which Jarosław Kaczyński called him a “German agent”. I ask myself why.
