During the press conference, Donald Tusk stated that after the next meeting of the Council of Ministers, information about financial abuses and violations of rules in many state institutions during the PiS era will be presented. He also commented on the activities of Szymon Hołownia regarding the parliamentary mandates of Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik. The briefing also included insults against President Andrzej Duda and PiS President Jarosław Kaczyński.
Information about abuses and rule violations during the PiS regime
After the next Council of Ministers, we will present detailed information about financial fraud and violations of the rules of social coexistence in many state institutions.
– said the Prime Minister at a press conference after the meeting of the Council of Ministers.
It makes our hair stand on end as we discover, step by step, day by day, even more gray and black spheres of activity and financial greed that until recently dominated Poland.
– said Tusk.
I’m sorry to say this, I prefer to start the new year with something nice, but this information is sometimes very, very depressing, about the state of ethical and organizational collapse in which we found various institutions of public life after the PiS. government.
– Tusk stated.
Personal trips to the PiS president
At the press conference, Tusk was also asked about Jarosław Kaczyński’s statement about Maciej Wąsik and Mariusz Kamiński. Let us not forget that the PiS president emphasized that politicians were scandalously and completely illegally convicted for fighting corruption. He added that they have the right to participate in Sejm sessions and their pardons are still valid.

I hope that one day the people who committed these abuses will be brought to justice and punished with due severity – because what they committed is a very serious crime –
– said the PiS leader.
What did Tusk have to say about this? He stated that “we are dealing with people who, according to the court’s verdict, have abused their power in an unacceptable way, to the detriment of people – Wąsik and Kamiński.”
And we have a man who has just ruled Poland saying that we must punish the judges who dared to punish his colleagues who have clearly abused their power and harmed people in the process. It is impossible to create a clearer definition of Jarosław Kaczyński’s mind than himself when he talks about himself
-Tusk scoffed.
I have no doubt that Kaczyński would want it to always be up to him and his party leadership to decide what is good and what is bad, what is legal and what is illegal, who should be punished and who should be pardoned. This is undoubtedly his ideal model of state management. I have information for him: it’s over, Jarosław, and it will never come back. This model of governing Poland and Poland by a man who imagines the rule of law in this way means that the law will always be on his side, that it has finally come to an end. There is no force that could return Poland to the disastrous images Kaczyński has in his mind.
– said Tusk.
When asked about the actions of Szymon Hołownia, who made the decision to end the mandates of Maciej Wąsik and Mariusz Kamiński, Tusk said he had confidence in what Hołownia did. At the same time, he also expressed his anger towards President Duda.
I respect the decisions of Marshal Szymon Hołownia, not only because I have always been focused on not mixing the executive power with the legislative and presidential powers. I believe that all these attempts, whether by the President, the Prime Minister or the Marshal, attempts to invade this other area, are always bad for the Polish system. I have full confidence in what Marshal Hołownia is doing, including in this matter. It seems that we will soon have, or already have, a letter from the Marshal of Hołownia at the Supreme Court. The decisions will be confirmed or changed shortly. We will try to respect it. I hope that the Supreme Court will give a clear judgment on whether the expiry of the mandates of Messrs. Kamiński and Wąsik is legally justified or not. Objectively, the Marshal is in a difficult situation. On the one hand we have one decision, on the other hand we have different interpretations, there is an appeal from Mr Kamiński and Mr Wąsik. It is not Mr. Marshal Hołownia who will ultimately decide their guilt or innocence, but the decisions of the Supreme Court.
– said Tusk.
The new/old Prime Minister complained that the situation was “difficult” and “the problem is that whatever we discuss today, whether it is the public media, the National Council for the Judiciary, the Constitutional Court, or the pardon and conviction from Mr Wąsik and Kamiński – we have it everywhere.” Destroyed space of law and order in Poland.
We have institutions that give conflicting interpretations. What Kaczyński, unfortunately with the cooperation of President Duda, has done to the rule of law in Poland is complete destruction. That’s why we all have a problem with it. When we try to solve these cases, you all wonder if it is really completely legal. But we also all know that the law they created is unconstitutional. And if they invoke the Constitution, that is a violation of it. Time and time again, Maciej. We have a serious time ahead of us, the president is not helping. We will make decisions knowing that not everyone will like them. Marshal Hołownia faces difficult decisions today and in recent days. I have complete confidence in him. He will and will make the best decisions possible
– said Tusk.
Motion of no confidence against Sienkiewicz
During the press conference after the government meeting, Tusk was asked about PiS’s motion for a vote of no confidence against the head of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, Bartłomiej Sienkiewicz.
Tusk replied that “Kaczyński has to do something”; as he said, the PiS president spent Christmas at the TVP Info headquarters, now there is a vote of no confidence in Sienkiewicz, and on January 11 there is a march – which, as Tusk said – is colloquially called the ‘millionaires’ march’ is called. “.
He (Jarosław Kaczyński) is lost, of course I am satisfied because I lost him a little
– he mocked.
It seems that these ideas, initiatives and these strange statements during today’s press conference show that Jarosław Kaczyński is not an opportunity for PiS to overcome the crisis, and everyone seems to see this more and more clearly every day.
– said Donald Tusk.
Will these be the norms at Donald Tusk’s press conferences?
