FEATURE STORY:
Poland in an Electric Trap – Wartime Evacuation Impossible
As we have established, simulations of a potential evacuation of Warsaw conducted over the past several months in the event of war or a severe crisis lead to a disturbing conclusion: an efficient evacuation of the capital is virtually impossible. The main culprit behind the potential paralysis threatening a city of nearly two million people is the ongoing electrification of the urban bus fleet. Meanwhile, the Polish government—based on EU directives—requires all cities with more than 100,000 residents to purchase only zero-emission buses. This poses a direct threat to the security of the entire country. This powerful piece by Grzegorz Wierzchołowski is the cover story of the new issue of GP.
PSL Turns Off the Lights for Agriculture
The year 2025 was one of the most difficult in recent years for farmers. Agricultural product prices were low, while costs were rising. The effects are already visible. The IRGAGR agricultural business climate index, monitored by the Warsaw School of Economics’ Institute of Economic Development, recorded its largest drop in 30 years—worse than during the 2008 financial crisis and the aftermath of the 2022 war outbreak. What is the response of the Polish government? None—writes Jacek Liziniewicz.
Not Trumpism, but “Czarnkism.” In Times of Chaos, People Want Clarity and Strong Positions
“In the current situation, we must answer simple questions: Is it America that has troops stationed in Poland in case of a Russian attack, or Iranian forces? Is it the United States that can help us if Russia attacks, or Hezbollah? These are obvious matters—so simple it is painful when someone fails to see them. If I become prime minister, I will act in the interest of the Polish state and the safety of its citizens,” says Prof. Przemysław Czarnek, PiS candidate for prime minister, in an interview with Gazeta Polska.

The Great Failure of Emergency Birth Rooms
Special units at emergency departments designed for urgent childbirths were supposed to help pregnant women in areas where maternity wards had been closed. However, the idea sparked widespread opposition due to numerous risks for both mothers and newborns. It turns out that these facilities are also not being created for other reasons. Hospital directors are reluctant to implement the solution because establishing such units under the Health Ministry’s guidelines paradoxically creates additional problems for the institutions. As a result, more and more women are losing access to specialized care, with no real alternative emerging. The Polish healthcare system also fails to fund a natural solution that is popular in some other countries. Hubert Kowalski reports.
Secrets of a Polish-Russian Marriage
“The father-in-law of a Warsaw municipal official, Dariusz M.—a long-time employee of Kremlin-controlled Aeroflot—was a Russian citizen, Victor G. At the turn of the 1990s and 2000s, he was involved in the production and trade of CDs and DVDs. We have established that G. was the founder of a Cypriot company that later became a shareholder in the empire of Belarusian oligarch Aleksandr Muravyev,” writes Piotr Nisztor, uncovering the facts.
Destructive Actions of Barbara Nowacka
“Minister of Education Barbara Nowacka is behaving disgracefully. The ruling in my case is indeed strange—on the one hand, the court sided with me and ordered the minister to issue an apology, but at the same time I am required to pay court costs,” says Prof. Wojciech Roszkowski, historian and author of history and civics textbooks, in an interview with Gazeta Polska. Interview by Grzegorz Wszołek.
Judge Convicted of Rape Does Not Adjudicate but Still Gets Paid—and Builds an Artistic Career
Judge Jakub K. has received a non-final conviction for raping a colleague from a court in Bydgoszcz. Following the scandal, he was suspended from his judicial duties and has not ruled on any cases for nearly six years. Despite this, he continues to receive monthly payments from the State Treasury—amounting to hundreds of thousands of złoty. The case has sparked outrage, report Grzegorz Broński and Joanna Grabarczyk.
