Chaos in Poland due to escalation of conflict between Donald Tusk and the opposition

According to the report of the international group Tasnim news agency, newspaper ” Germany’s Berliner Zeitung in an article addressed the chaos in Poland in the shadow of the conflicts between the government of Donald Tusk, the new Polish Prime Minister, and the opposition Law and Justice Party, especially over public media, and wrote: Donald Tusk, the new Polish Prime Minister, may He wants to take revenge on the previous ruling party of Law and Justice and take tough measures against PiS. He is currently fixing the television.

A few months ago, a dramatic event happened in Poland, and it is not unlikely that this year will continue in the same way.

Mariusz Kaminski, who until a month ago was the Minister of Interior in the PiS government and was in charge of the police, was sentenced to two years in prison and his responsibility in the parliament he lost. Kaminski was punished for abusing his powers in the first PiS government between 2005 and 2007. He and his colleague Maciej Wąsik are the first politicians of the Law and Justice Party to be convicted or punished for abuse after the change of power. There are many signs that they can go to jail. Andrzej Duda, the president of Poland, who is a supporter of the Law and Justice Party, had previously announced that he would refer to his companions as “political prisoners” if this scenario happened.

But the biggest controversy in Poland in recent days has been the scandals surrounding state television. Before the elections, TVP channels were important strongholds of PiS. Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the recently ousted leader of the Polish right, believes that whoever controls state television also runs the country.

On December 22 last year New managers appointed by Task entered TVP. They signaled the state news channel TVP Info, which was controlled by people close to PiS and in recent years news and propaganda. According to them, they turned off the fake publication. The PiS party, which is currently in opposition, then spoke of a “coup”.

Representatives and former heads of state media spent this year’s Christmas on TV. But not in front of the camera, but in the corridors and offices of radio and television. They occupied this institution and tried to prevent the takeover of Tusk. Some of them, like Antony Maciewicz, tried to use the rules to prevent new employees from entering the editorial offices. It is close, at first it did not react to the sudden reforms of the new government. However, PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski gave him a stern warning. The politician said on December 22: “If I were the president now, the state television TVP would broadcast the same programs as always.”

President Andrey Duda on the 23 In December, he vetoed the government budget, which had just been passed by the new Tusk government in parliament, and which allocated funds for new TV channels. But the government budget did not only include TV money. Among other things, the budget was about raising the salaries of teachers – who are poorly paid in Poland -, university employees, police officers and municipal officials. PiS had already promised to raise the salaries of these people, and the new Tusk government made other improvements, but all these increases were blocked by Duda’s veto. It was PiS that first promised to improve the economic situation of working Poles. The fact that now the president, who is close to PiS, has blocked the increase in the wages of public sector employees, seems strange to the voters of the Law and Justice Party.

After that, the president immediately announced his budget proposal. But Tusk overtook him. Just after Christmas, the new government presented its new budget proposal. This time, no money is earmarked for television, and instead about three billion zlotys will be spent on health care.

Poland has one of the worst medical systems. It has in the EU, so that money will definitely come in handy. Moreover, it is socially acceptable to change the budget. After all, Poles want more than anything to be healthy, not to watch state television.

PiS continues to protest against the Tusk government’s reforms. and considers them illegal.

Not long ago, the action of the new Polish government in dismissing the leaders of the public media on the charge of unilaterally supporting the former ruling party angered Andrzej Duda, the president of Poland, who Belongs to this party.

The new Polish government wants to end the propaganda of the former Polish leadership of the Law and Justice Party in the media, and that is why Donald Tusk The new prime minister of Poland has put extensive reforms in the public media, which he believes were propagandists for the previous ruling party, and dismissed the leaders of these media.
