War on the cross
According to Anna Maria Żukowska from the left, “the symbol of Poland is the White Eagle with a crown and the white and red flag.”
It’s not the cross
– she announced.
However, Piotr Zgorzelski, deputy chairman of the Sejm of the Polish People’s Party, had a different opinion.
Just as you must defend Hanukkah candles in the Sejm, you must also defend the cross
– emphasized the politician.
The presidential minister, Małgorzata Paprocka, also gave her clear opinion on Trzaskowski’s decision.
President Trzaskowski’s decision is a clear statement of the worldview
– she said.
Safety is a key issue
The program also discussed political polarization in Poland.
According to Paprocka, “the fact that there is a dispute, especially in such an exceptional situation that we find ourselves in, that one campaign flows smoothly into another, is absolutely clear in a democracy.”
However, there are still the same arguments, to which there are also counter-arguments, and we are actually talking about things from 10 years ago, 12 years ago, and the question today is: what are we going to do in 2024.
– noted the presidential minister.
Today, security is a key issue for each of us sitting at this table, because it is a key issue for Polish citizens. Where is the limit of escalation?
– asked Paprocka.
