“This is just a farming game. You can see the contempt for farmers, but it is actually a contempt for the issue related to Ukrainian products and the Green Deal,” said Robert Telus in an interview with wPolityce.pl. As the former Minister of Agriculture told us yesterday, the Committee on Agriculture, with the votes of Tusk’s coalition, rejected the draft resolution in defense of Polish farmers.
Robert Telus expected that the meeting with Tusk would change nothing and that there would be no specific details.
Even what he announced before the meeting, such as the suspension of the shutdown, already existed in our time. The same applies to crop protection products
– said the former Minister of Agriculture in Morawiecki’s government.

Farmers will not give up on Tusk
According to the former Minister of Agriculture, Tusk is stuck.
Tusk hopes that farmers will have to go into the fields and the problem will disappear. I am convinced that the Polish farmer will not give up so quickly, because he is tough and he will not give up on Donald Tusk so quickly.
– said Telus, commenting on the words of Tusk, who at a meeting with farmers said – according to Obszański from NSZZ RI “S” – that he “cannot do anything”.
Of course he can. In April 2023, we showed how it should be done by introducing an embargo on all products. The current embargo on grain stems from our decision, the Polish state. It is enough to add more products to this arrangement, which has been signed by the Minister of Development and the Minister of Agriculture, both of whom come from PSL. For example sugar, apple concentrate, soft fruit. That’s not a problem, but they don’t want that
– MP Telus told us.
He recalled that MPs from Tusk’s coalition showed their true colors during yesterday’s meeting of the Agriculture Committee. The committee considered the first reading of the parliamentary draft resolution on farmers’ protests and resolving the difficult situation in Polish agriculture. and meeting the demands of striking farmers.
Yesterday in the Sejm Commission we proposed that the Sejm adopt a resolution on the introduction of an embargo, so that the Prime Minister would have more influence on these decisions and have the support of the entire parliament. Unfortunately, the government majority has thrown this resolution into the trash. This shows that they will never do it. This is just a farming game. You see the contempt for farmers, but it is actually a contempt for the problem surrounding Ukrainian products and the Green Deal
– said Telus, noting inconsistency in the government’s actions. On the one hand, there is talk of limiting wasteland, and on the other hand, Minister Zielińska in Brussels promises support to the Tusk government to reduce CO2 emissions by another 90%.
This is killing European and Polish agriculture, not just causing it to collapse
– summarized the politician for Law and Justice who spoke to us after returning from field work.
