Domański about the use of the SO -driven output clause. Why did he not want to do this about the deficit of the public financing sector before 2023?

Finance Minister Andrzej Domański in an interview for Reuters Agency has announced that Poland wants to submit an application to the EC for permission to launch the SO -Called Output clause, ie the possibility of completing the shortage of the public financing sector increased issues for national defense with an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of an average of 1.5 percent. GDP per year for 4 years. Such a formula was proposed by the chairman of the EC Ursula von der Leyen in March of this year and said that the defense of the EU countries will increase by around EUR 800 billion in the coming 4 years. Of this amount, EUR 650 billion had to come from the budgets of the Member States (the aforementioned 1.5 percent of GDP on average for 4 years), and an additional EUR 150 billion is a joint loan of all 27 Member States that the EU defense fund, which is functioning on comparable principles, to which KPO is finished.

In the situation of a real threat to the aggression of Russia and the need to increase reinforcement costs annually, it is of course a good government movement, only that it was possible to negotiate with the EC before the costs for purchasing weapons and investments in the army are derived in the army. It is thanks to such negotiations that Estonia and the Czech Republic were not covered under the excessive shortage procedure in 2023, which shows that they bear increased costs for armament and help from attacked Ukraine as front countries. The government of Tusk could have done the same way, but it was politically considered that since the EU procedure of excessive shortage has been 2023, the “Pisowski” has been, and yet every stick to hit the “Pisowski” government, was and is a premium for them.

We want to remind you that the excessive deficit procedure was carried out against Poland in connection with the increase in the shortage of the public financing sector in 2023, ie the last year of rights and justice, to 5.3 percent. GDP and government debt up to 59.6 percent GDP. This deficit indeed increased to this level of 5.3 percent. GDP, but the expenditure for the national defense amounted to no less than 3.3 percent. GDP, including hard expenses for the purchase of weapons and investments with regard to them, almost 1.5 percent. GDP, expenditure for energy discs with regard to the war in Ukraine 0.6 percent GDP, finally spending for refugees from Ukraine 0.3 percent GDP. In addition, the expenditure for defensive purposes in 2024 in 2024 was 3.7 percent. GDP and in 2025 are planned at 4.9 percent. GDP, which means that there is a permanent burden with regard to guaranteeing the safety of our country and that the European Commission must be taken into account.

Therefore, if the Tusk government, and on his behalf, Minister Domański really wanted to convince the EC in his position, then these 3 types of costs reduced our deficit of 5.3 percent in 2023. GDP to 2.9 percent GDP, ie under 3 percent GDP, included in EU stability and growth. Two countries in a similar situation such as Poland, although they had a shortage of public financing sector of around 4 percent. GDP, but still defense costs at a lower level than Poland, ie Estonia and the Czech Republic, were excluded from this procedure. These two countries outsource extra money for reinforcements and to receive refugees from Ukraine, it turned out, a higher conviction than the Polish government and both, although they were on the list of countries to cover the procedure of excessive shortage, they eventually fell from this list.

The government of Tusk and Minister Domański clearly did not give it to exclude Poland from the excessive shortage procedure, or rather to take our country with this procedure, because it enables, among other things, to be free from countless election promises. Now it appears that, since such deductions are even recommended by the chairman of the EC Ursula von der Leyen, Minister Domański wants to use the Sun -Called Output clause and extra defense costs for an average of an average of approximately. 1.5 percent For the next 4 years, GDP will be deducted from the government and local government deficit. It would be good for Minister Domański to explain why he did not want to do this in the case of the deficit of the public financing sector before 2023, which is the result of taking the Polish procedure of excessive shortage with all these negative consequences.
