“I would rather not have been born than build my political career on the graves of the dead,” Prime Minister Donald Tusk said in the Sejm in 2012, in the context of the Smolensk disaster. Today, after about a decade, he is Prime Minister again and, probably out of distaste for building a political career on the graves of the dead, he calls a rally on the anniversary of the attack on Gdańsk President Paweł Adamowicz . . Tusk was reminded of his statements from the past, but also of how politicians from the Civic Coalition spoke about the mayor of Gdańsk during his lifetime.
“Let us not allow lies and hatred to prevail again.”
We will meet on January 13 in Gdańsk, on the fifth anniversary of the attack on Paweł Adamowicz. We will never forget this tragic lesson. Let’s not let hatred and lies win again. Saturday, Targ Węglowy, 7 p.m
– wrote Prime Minister Donald Tusk on the X platform.
He forgot four things in his post.
First: Adamowicz’s killer was sentenced to life imprisonment in March last year.
Second: The judge who ruled in the case clearly stated that finding political motives in the attack on the mayor of Gdańsk is an “overinterpretation”.
Thirdly: In the 2018 local elections, Paweł Adamowicz did not receive the support of the Civic Platform, whose candidate for President of Gdańsk was Jarosław Wałęsa. Adamowicz’s independent start on behalf of his own committee was not appreciated by PO politicians. As for the “attack” on the mayor of Gdańsk, which allegedly led to the attack, it was not only the public media that cast doubt on Adamowicz’s asset declarations. The case also received attention in the commercial media, including those that clearly supported the then opposition.
Fourth: For years, Donald Tusk’s political environment has accused Law and Justice of playing politics on the graves of the victims of the Smolensk disaster. Meanwhile, for the past eight years.

We’ll refresh Tusk’s memory
When I light candles, when I think about the dead, when I am at my mother’s grave or at the graves or at the monument to the victims of the Smolensk disaster, I consider silence, concentration and a moment of prayer to be more appropriate behavior than shouting, shouting, cursing and political banners. (Applause) Let me put it in human terms: I would rather not have been born than build my political career on the graves of the dead.
– said Prime Minister Donald Tusk in the Sejm on April 13, 2012, three days after the second anniversary of the Smolensk disaster.
The head of government made the speech before the vote on the inclusion of a draft resolution by PiS MPs on the obligation of Russian authorities to hand over the wreckage of the Tu-154M to Poland. Tusk’s statement was recalled on the X platform by Samuel Pereira.
The fact that the Prime Minister is calling a demonstration less than a month after being sworn in is a sign of problems in the coalition. Scandal after scandal, which he cannot silence – despite favorable reporting in most media and the hostile takeover of the public media
Other journalists, politicians and Internet users also decided to comment on today’s entry of the Prime Minister, while reminding him of some interesting facts from the not so distant past.
It’s hard not to see this call as anything other than desperation. People taking to the streets immediately after winning the elections is a sign of helplessness. No wonder, it certainly creaks there. Tusk’s previous tweet was already a rebuke to those who doubted revolutionary methods, and the new government doesn’t even have the ‘bonus’ of extra points in the polls. The king himself is hardly a leader of confidence.
Hypocrites. You didn’t want him on the lists. Jarosław Wałęsa, PO’s candidate for the presidency of Gdańsk, publicly attacked him. The Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity event had terrible security. The devil is dressed in a chasuble and rings the mass with his tail
Cynicism and hypocrisy. Nowadays they use their memory and make a friend of someone they fought with in their life and said this about him there is much more. You don’t pass your blame on to others!
They are hypocrisy with @Platforma_org. Don’t forget that in the 2018 local elections they targeted Jarosław Wałęsa, even attacking him and telling Adamowicz that you are a destructive mechanism, and besides, the WOŚP event was not well protected by typhoon protection.
Tusk, 65 years old
