“It’s good that you finally admitted that Poland is not a country of anti-Semites. Somehow you have previously mocked people who said that,” wrote lawyer Bartosz Lewandowksi, speaking to Radosław Sikorski after the scandal that occurred during his interview with Monika Olejnik on TVN.
The Internet was in an uproar after the anti-Semitism scandal that took place on TVN 24, where Monika Olejnik asked the candidate of the Civic Coalition for the presidency, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Radosław Sikorski, about the alleged problem that the fact that Sikorski’s wife is Jewish descent would pose for KO members.
A deliberate act or genuine indignation? If the latter is the case, it means that Minister Radosław Sikorski did not understand the meaning of Monika Olejnik’s question (about anti-Semitic prejudices of PO politicians), because the answer was also off topic.
– wrote Telewizja wPolce24 journalist Samuel Pereira, who published a video recording of the event.

The internet is in turmoil
There were more comments about what we saw.
We learned two things: there are anti-Semites in the platform, and Radzio is not keeping up the pressure
— wrote blogger Paweł Rybicki.
I’m sorry, but if anyone has the last name Appelbaum or Wildstein, whose are they? Chukchi? We canned foods have no problem with that. Anti-Semitism is a problem for the left
– noted journalist Cezary Gmyz.
But I don’t know what TVN is, come on. Jews here, Jews there, a kind of obsession
– former Confederacy MP Robert Winnicki mocked.
I understand that a journalist also asks uncomfortable questions, but there are questions you should not ask. I’m not surprised R. Sikorski didn’t stay until the end credits. Asking about your wife’s ancestry is a highly inappropriate question. Did Mrs. Olejnik ask such questions to A. Duda?
– asked Alicja Cichoń, a councilor from Mińsk Mazowiecki, who unsuccessfully ran for the Sejm elections last year on the lists of the Civic Coalition.
“Gazeta Wyborcza” wrote a whole article about the origins of Andrzej Duda’s wife during his first presidential campaign. The memory, as you can see, is only for yourself.
– Joanna Miziołek, a journalist from “Wprost”, answered her.
You’re right. But now you found out that TVN and Mr. Olejnik are a cesspool? If it is poured out on PiS every day, is it good?
– noted PiS MP Mariusz Kałużny.
Hypocrisy
A well-known lawyer, lawyer Bartosz Lewandowski, decided to put a stick in the anthill and pointed out that although Radosław Sikorski is indignant now that the situation worries him, Poland is not an anti-Semitic country, but in the past he was willing to accusing him of anti-Semitism.
It’s good that you finally admitted that Poland is not a country of anti-Semites. You made fun of people who said that before
– he wrote and posted a series of screenshots in which Sikorski mocked the idea that anti-Semitism no longer exists in Poland.
Trzaskowski’s response
Even Radosław Sikorski’s opponent in the primaries – Warsaw Mayor Rafał Trzaskowski – reacted to the scandal.
Wife, children, family are sacred. Words of support for Anne and Radek
– he said.
Sikorski’s attack
After hastily leaving the studio, Radosław Sikorski posted a message on social media slamming TVN.
I believe that it is unacceptable to make the origin of the candidate’s wife an issue in the presidential election. Contrary to editor Olejnik’s insinuations, we are not a country of anti-Semites. I demand that TVN and Warner Bros./Discovery restore journalistic standards
– wrote on the site X.
