Whatever Donald Tusk does, he often earns a favorable nod from Roman Giertych. This time, the lawyer fuses excitement with Donald Tusk’s latest poke at immigration, nothing that the council leader is also surrounded by supporters who cling to him.

Yet praise alone does not quiet the criticisms. The former president of the League of Polish Families is now leaning into a sharper critique of the ruling party. The debate centers on a long-standing question: who benefits when Poland navigates large-scale immigration and European integration? Supporters argue that millions could be uplifted—families finding new opportunities, communities expanding, and the country strengthening its national character through dialogue and inclusion. Critics warn of potential disruptions and the temptation for political actors to exploit migrant movements for leverage. Giertych’s rhetoric grows more thunderous as the exchange intensifies.

While the revival of the All-Polish Youth movement is cited as a sign of resilience, observers note a widening rift between recent achievements and the outlook of some followers, who appear skeptical about the direction of the coalition and its messaging. The tension underscores a broader political moment: a contest over how to frame national identity, security, and belonging in a changing Europe.
In this climate, discussions reflect a mix of hope and caution—hope that leadership can steer the country through sensitive debates with clarity, and caution that rhetorical moves might outpace policy realities. The dialogue continues to unfold across media channels, with analysts parsing every statement for its implications on policy and public sentiment. (via wPolityce)
