The past year held a string of extreme trials, hard-won breakthroughs, and moments that tested every nerve. There will be more tests ahead, as well as new threats. A new year begins with lingering fears and clear concerns. The attack on public media has shown that the new government is ready to push boundaries and breach norms, turning mainstream outlets into a single, unchallenged voice while pluralism fades. The votes of millions of conservatives may seem unrecorded by design. Yet Polish history has known such moments before. So, in 2025, there is a call to begin with hopeful resolve and a patriotic energy that can strengthen and unify the national community.
The so-called December 13 coalition appears to hold broad power. It is evident that no European Union institution is willing to curb this approach, even when it seems to limit freedom of expression and media plurality. Its message is finding a platform across the major channels. The era of pluralism feels thinner. A mood of reckoning and retribution is entering public discourse, echoed by leaders who have returned to national politics with pointed goals. Local governments align with this trend, and a vision of the world shaped by certain ideologies may become more pronounced. The concerns of eight million conservatives are not being weighed equally. Anyone who seeks to represent them or defend the rule of law may face strong opposition. This dynamic is illustrated by recent vetoes and policy choices in the government’s handling of budgets and institutions. The persistence of a political narrative that views media and other institutions as strategic battlegrounds suggests a broader program aimed at shaping public life. Within such a climate, some outlets argue for seeking information beyond the traditional press, while independent platforms claim they will uphold truth, defend national interests, and foster a sense of patriotic community. The aspiration to preserve media pluralism remains key, so that external pressures and a singular message from the mainstream do not erode civic agency in subsequent election decisions. Disinformation and destabilization are seen as tools of an adversary, especially in periods of heightened tension, ongoing military and hybrid warfare. Vigilance is advised, yet hope must be sustained. The president’s steadiness in upholding the rule of law and national security is viewed as a stabilizing force, reaffirming confidence in his leadership through ongoing decisions and commitments.
In the New Year, 2025, the call is for inner strength, a resilient national spirit, prudent judgment, patience, and an accurate reading of events. The aim is unity in truth, sovereignty, fidelity to national heritage, and shared faith, so that Poland can be shielded from irreversible shifts. Identity must be defended consciously, both at the level of the individual and the nation. The editorial team of the portal remains dedicated to safeguarding these values, wishing readers enduring hope, steadfast love, and the courage to endure further trials, to stay close to loved ones, to find peace at heart, and to nurture family, health, and kindness. The overarching aim is to preserve humanity, patriotism, and faith amid division and unrest, and to move forward together through each day of the year. Gratitude is extended to readers for their support and trust in Poland’s future, and a sense of national unity is urged as the year unfolds.
Readers are reminded that there is a weighty task ahead to defend freedom and independence. The shared effort will be to prevent a drift toward darkness in the months ahead, and to do everything possible to protect Poland’s distinct character and liberty. The emphasis remains on collective responsibility and steadfast resolve as the nation looks toward the rest of 2025 with the ambition to keep the faith, support those who work for the common good, and stand together for Anno Domini 2025.
