It appears that at the highest levels of power in the United Right in Poland, a decision was made to undermine that political bloc by sidelining some figures from public life. The actions of the governing party and its coalition partners, including alleged lawbreaking in public media and within the prosecutor’s office, seem aimed at ensuring the United Right loses influence and therefore faces little or no accountability in the future.
MP Michał Dworczyk, a PiS member and former head of the Prime Minister’s Chancellery, spoke on Telewizja wPolsce during the evening edition of the program W Centrum Dzień Rzenia, hosted by Marcin Wikla. The discussion touched on the parliamentary hearing held by the Sejm investigative committee into postal elections.
Dworczyk noted that much of the material used by the committee during the hearing originated from the Poufna Rozmowa portal. He insisted that the source of the content should be understood in context, stressing that Poufna Rozmowa is linked to Russian and Belarusian actors. He clarified that these are not PiS positions, nor are they his personal opinions, citing a report from a major cybersecurity firm, Mandiant. The firm, now part of Google, has stated that hacker activities targeting parliamentarians’ mail accounts in Poland were conducted by circles tied to the security services of Russia and Belarus.
The remark was attributed to the former head of the Prime Minister’s Chancellery. It was described as a significant development, with some suggesting that a script written beyond Poland’s eastern border was being carried out on Polish soil along the Vistula River. The situation was described as emotionally charged, chaotic, and filled with misinformation.
Amazing words during the meeting
When asked about the remarks made by MP Anita Kucharska-Dziedzic, who sits on the committee, the Telewizja wPoland guest offered his perspective. He said he was taken aback by her comparison of two statements that should not be treated as equal. One statement, issued by the Provincial Administrative Court, was deemed invalid, while the other, issued by the 2nd Criminal Chamber of the District Court in Warsaw, represented a final judgment that closed the case.
The judge reportedly stated that government officials, including the Prime Minister and the Head of the Prime Minister’s Chancellery, acted within the law when preparing administrative decisions on postal elections, according to Dworczyk.
This, he argued, captured the core issue the committee ought to address.
Objectively? Destroy the United Right
The question remained whether the committee’s mission was to uncover the truth or to shape an impression that the rule of law and justice in several areas had harmed Poland. Dworczyk asserted that a decision had been made at high levels of the political opponents to undermine the United Right by sidelining some individuals from public life. He suggested that suspending sentences, convicting and imprisoning, or otherwise removing people from public life were part of this effort.
According to the parliamentarian, activities by the opposition and its coalition partners, including alleged law violations in public media or within the prosecutor’s office, were conducted with a sense that the United Right’s influence on Polish governance would not return, leaving those responsible unaccountable for their current actions.
For readers seeking further context, a report notes the discussion from the committee on envelope elections and suggests that without elections, critics could have accused the government of negligence. This is attributed to the program and outlet involved in the coverage.
