“If Law and Justice (PiS) wins the election and returns to power, a special ministry for illegal immigration will be established. All these ‘engineers’ will be deported within 72 hours, or at the latest within one to two weeks. We will no longer let Germany treat us the way they have. This ministry will have special powers. There will be an outcry in Brussels and Berlin, but Poland will not pay the price for the foolishness of EU bureaucrats,” said Mateusz Morawiecki, former Prime Minister and leader of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR), during the program Polityczna kawa.
Motion of No Confidence Against von der Leyen
Romanian MEP Gheorghe Piperea, of the Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR)—a member of the ECR group—officially filed a motion of no confidence in the European Commission and its President, Ursula von der Leyen.
The motion, submitted on June 26, was signed by 74 MEPs, including some from Poland and even from the European People’s Party (EPP)—von der Leyen’s own political group. Piperea noted that some MEPs were pressured to withdraw their support.
The vote is scheduled to take place between July 7 and 10, 2025.
When asked about the motion during Tomasz Sakiewicz’s program, ECR Chairman Morawiecki said that von der Leyen would “likely hold a press conference in a few days.”
“She will propose the following initiatives: even more climate policy, a 90% neutrality target by 2040—which means even fewer jobs and more industrial flight; she will propose finalizing the Mercosur agreement, which will devastate Polish agriculture; she will propose a smaller budget for the Common Agricultural Policy and a larger one for the arms industry, which will benefit Germany and France; and she will put forward concrete steps for the migration pact,” Morawiecki warned.
He added that the ECR and other signatories of the motion want “to show all MEPs how dangerous this policy is and propose new leadership alternatives.” He noted that “sometimes it’s worth marking our disagreement with certain developments.”
PiS to Create New Ministry
Morawiecki placed particular emphasis on the issue of illegal migration, pointing to increasing incidents along Poland’s western border, where Germany is reportedly transferring African migrants into Polish territory.
“We’re dealing with something unprecedented—the Polish western border is as full of holes as Swiss cheese. People are being forced to organize themselves because Donald Tusk is afraid to send forces to that border. Just as I, as Prime Minister, built a wall on the eastern border, if we return to power, the state—currently in abdication—will act again. I will ensure the western border is sealed if I have the chance,” he pledged.
He reiterated that if PiS returns to power, “a special ministry for illegal immigration will be created.”
“All these ‘engineers’ will be sent back within 72 hours, at most within a week or two. We won’t allow Germany to treat us the way it has. This ministry will have special powers. There will be an uproar in Brussels and Berlin, but Poland will not pay the price for EU bureaucratic stupidity. If you break the law—you will be expelled. We will build a special facility near the German border so that all illegal migrants can see what awaits them. The border should be monitored 24/7 by helicopters, drones, camera systems, telemetry. Of course, we won’t disrupt cross-border life—and I will defend cross-border movement and Polish entrepreneurs—but Germany must be shown full strength and resolve. My successor as prime minister tucked his tail—and we’re now seeing the consequences,” said Mateusz Morawiecki.
