“On behalf of the parliamentarians of Law and Justice, I would like to ask the Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, specific questions,” Michał Dworczyk said at a press conference in the Sejm.
Law and Justice MP, who appeared at the conference together with Marcin Przydacz, raised the topic of the National Ammunition Reserve.
We wanted to comment on the information that appeared in the media that the National Ammunition Reserve program, the program for the construction of a Polish artillery ammunition factory, mainly 155 mm ammunition, will be blocked, and the factory itself will not be built. . Therefore, we need to find out whether this information is true. If it were true, it would mean a threat to the next strategic project after the CPK, after the Polish nuclear power plant, after the expansion of Polish ports. Another strategic project for our country would be in jeopardy
– he said.
On behalf of the Law and Justice MPs, I would like to ask the Prime Minister, Donald Tusk, specific questions. Is it true that the construction of an artillery ammunition factory in Poland, carried out as part of the National Ammunition Reserve project, will be suspended? Is it true that during a meeting with Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Prime Minister Donald Tusk made a statement that Poland would buy artillery ammunition, including 155-millimeter ammunition, from German companies such as Rheinmetall and others, as was the case in previous years? Is it true that Rheinmetall is currently preparing a large purchase of a large batch of 155-millimeter ammunition for the Polish army? These are important questions that we need answers to. Crucial from the point of view of the security of the Polish state
– he said.

PiS’s Marcin Przydacz drew attention to the enormous importance of ammunition production today.
The issue of ammunition production and possession of resources is extremely important from the perspective of the security of the Polish state as part of the defense and deterrence policy and as part of the fulfillment of NATO obligations. In recent years, Poland has made great efforts to increase expenditure on arms production within NATO-allied countries, but this expenditure concerns not only purchases on international markets of modern equipment, but also the production of ammunition, which could be carried out in Poland.
– he said.
The Third Polish Republic struggled for many years with a lack of production capacity. When the right political and executive decision was finally made regarding the reconstruction of the arms industry in the field of ammunition production, it turned out that the new liberal-left government raised major questions here, not to mention the risk of simply removing this program from implementation. As a result, Poland is shrinking, the country is dependent on the production capacities of other countries, and as we know, this can entail various kinds of risks. By bundling these questions, we, as Polish parliamentarians, here in the Polish Sejm, will also demand answers from the government to Mr Dworczyk’s questions.
– he added.
