Kaczyński about the meeting with Hołownia: We talked about the fact that we had to save Poland

At the meeting with the Speaker of the Sejm Szymon Hołownia was a conversation that “Poland must be saved” – said PiS president Jarosław Kaczyński on Sunday. When asked if he achieved his goal, he replied: “When we go, I will be happy.”

On Friday, Radio ZET and “Newsweek” reported that the Sejm Marshal Szymon Hołownia visited one of the most important MEPs of Law and Justice in a private apartment – Adam Bielan. The meeting took place on Thursday before midnight in Warsaw's white stone. Then to Bielan's apartment – as the photojournalists of “Fakt” established, among others, PiS president Jarosław Kaczyński came.

Kaczyński, asked at a press conference if he was satisfied with the meeting with Hołownia, he joked: “I would like the state to first, between the editorial offices, to agree whether it was Mr. Bielan's or mine meeting.” “As for me, I will not say that I did not talk, but because we spoke in full discretion (…) I will not interrupt it. Certainly they were not those matters that some people guess” – he said.

He added that he does not know why this “discretion has been, can be said rapidly.”

“You need Poland – this word is completely justified – save. It is about the fact that we talked” – added Kaczyński.

Asked if he achieved his goal, he replied: “I can say yes. This is politics, step by step. When we go the way, I will be happy.”

Hołownia on Friday in the post on platform X assessed that “intensification and excitement” related to the meeting are neither justified nor indicated. “I am one of the few politicians in Poland, who – I emphasize – regularly meets representatives of both deadly camps. I am hardly at the opinion that – especially nowadays – politicians of various options should talk to each other, otherwise we kill each other. I consider it a norm, not a derogation from her, and I will continue to be like this, as the Marshal of the Sejm, he wrote.

On Friday, the meeting of Prime Minister Tusk took place with the leaders of the coalition groups: Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz (PSL), Szymon Hołownia (Poland 2050) and Włodzimierz Czarzasty (Nowa Lewica), at which he presented them with proposals for the reconstruction of the government, which would be reached in mid-July. “As you can see, maintaining a coalition is difficult, but possible, just like the reconstruction of the government and agreeing the strategy that will allow you to go to the offensive after losing in the presidential election. Of course, it requires courage and loyalty. Despite the difficulties you know, I will accomplish this task” – commented on Saturday the head of government on Platform X. (PAP)
