Security in Poland is presented as a guarantor role for the rule of law by the governing party. The return of a political figure is framed as backing a mechanism for relocating unauthorized migrants, a move the party insists it will oppose. The party leaders stated on Sunday that they would stop that policy from taking hold.
New PiS spot. Illegal migrants and PO in the background
Time passes, and according to the new spot, the Platforma Obywatelska has not shifted its stance.
– asserts Law and Justice in a message prepared for social media that aired on Sunday.
The spot references a 2015 remark by a Civic Platform MP and former government spokesperson about refugees. When asked how many refugees Poland could accept, the PO member replied that the country could handle almost any number and that decisions would be made with resolve.
Another Civic Platform figure, Artur Łącki, is shown in 2023. While speaking on Polsat News in the program Point of View about what should happen if the EU asks Poland to accept migrants in six months or a year, the politician reportedly said that if there was a need to accept several thousand migrants, Poland should do so, noting the country’s strength and wealth as justification.

A headline from the i.pl site is quoted: “German CDU MP: Poland can accept the migration pact if plus my political friends plus win in the fall.”
The narration concludes with a warning about potential outcomes in Poland and urges the nation to prevent these scenes from unfolding.
The spot also features brief clips of protests and unrest in Western European countries.

PiS politicians comment
Other ruling party figures commented on the new advertisement via social media on Sunday.
The message reiterates that only the PiS administration can guarantee security in Poland and asserts that the return of a rival leader would imply agreement with a forced relocation policy for illegal migrants. A pledge to oppose that outcome is stated clearly.
– wrote the government spokesperson.
The head of the PiS election campaign, MEP Joachim Brudziński, argued that no one could orchestrate programmatic divides as effectively as the opposition and its leader, even if viewpoints shift rapidly.
In the morning, the rival leader threatened Poland with penalties for not accepting migrants, while in the afternoon his MPs reportedly signaled willingness to accept many thousands under a forced relocation program.
– Brudziński noted.
He added that German allies were telling the European Parliament that if the opposition wins, Poland would face an open door to migrants from Africa and the Middle East. The speaker claimed the rival and his MPs were making inconsistent statements at different times, labeling them as lying at different moments. The comparison to Lampedusa is used to illustrate the argument.
The message closes with a bold claim: Only PiS guarantees Safe Poland.
– emphasized the head of the ruling party’s election campaign.
There is mention of how discussions from the opposition and their interconnectedness with German media are perceived, with a charge that these conversations are tailored for electoral gain rather than honest debate. The view is that media figures may not challenge the idea of allowing large numbers of migrants before elections, with the speaker urging vigilance.
– noted a government analyst, a figure associated with the education ministry.
Deputy Foreign Minister Paweł Jabłoński summarized the choice as simple: Platforma = Lampedusa in Poland, PiS = Safe Poland.
Deputy Foreign Minister Arkadiusz Mularczyk pointed to statements from German and Polish MPs suggesting that a Platforma victory would lead to forced relocation, a policy the speaker said Poland does not accept in line with current European proposals.
This is presented as a broader EU plan that would relocate migrants to Poland, with the speaker arguing against it.
A similar comment came from the Minister of Funds and Regional Policy, Grzegorz Puda, who referenced German support for relocation if the platform wins, and asserted that PiS has repeatedly demonstrated Poland’s safety under its governance.
German policymakers and party affiliates are described as discussing migration and the potential consequences for Poland, with a notable emphasis on safeguarding national interests amid broader European debates.
Statements from other officials are cited to reinforce a narrative of political competition and security concerns, highlighting differences with the opposition and its supporters in Brussels and beyond.
— a deputy head of a government ministry noted that if the opposition comes to power, Poland might confront pressures regarding migration and border policy. A senior figure suggested that the opposition would align with German and EU expectations about relocation in a way that the speaker rejects.
There is a recurring theme of safeguarding Poland’s borders and the safety of its citizens, framed as the central duty of the government. The articulation emphasizes a stance against conceding to external migration-related pressure and asserts a commitment to upholding national security goals.
NO to forced relocation of illegal migrants. NO to blindly following orders from Brussels. PiS fights for Poland’s security, not for German orders.
– emphasized another politician.
Context suggests ongoing editorial framing of the migration debate within a broader political contest, with observers noting the transnational dimension and the perceived influence of Germany on Polish policy choices.
A final note reiterates the position on security and governance in Poland as a defining priority for PiS in the current cycle.
