“Your crude attacks on the President of Poland (including today) are a sign of frustration and the awareness that we know who you are, and that we will never accept such disgrace in public life”, wrote Prof. Sławomir Cenckiewicz, head of the National Security Bureau, addressing Włodzimierz Czarzasty, Speaker of the Sejm.
The topic of the parliamentary election results in Hungary dominated both Sunday evening and Monday morning. After 16 years, Fidesz of Viktor Orban is losing power to Tisza – the party of Peter Magyar, the likely future prime minister.
Among those pleased with Magyar’s victory is the ruling coalition in Poland. Prime Minister Donald Tusk commented on the defeat of Hungary’s incumbent prime minister: “a weight off my shoulders, because I was worried until the very end”.
Since it became clear that the prospect of Orban’s fifth term had completely collapsed, politicians from the ruling coalition have been using the issue to… attack President Karol Nawrocki.
During the night, a post appeared on the profile of Włodzimierz Czarzasty, Speaker of the Sejm, featuring a photo of the Polish head of state with Orban. “All you have left is Putin, Mr. President. We remember your last visit to Budapest”, Czarzasty wrote on X.
Today, appearing on Polsat News, the leader of the New Left stated:
“I wondered whether to use this phrase or not, but the president, acting on our behalf as the President of Poland, simply made a fool of himself. Not Jesus, but a fool. This is a major problem. Why is that not too strong? Just look at what happened in Hungary. Everyone knew how Hungary under Orban was throwing sand into the gears of the entire EU, how he hates Poland, how they loved Putin”
Cenckiewicz to Czarzasty: “We Know Who You Are”
Czarzasty’s conduct was criticized on social media by Prof. Sławomir Cenckiewicz, head of the National Security Bureau.
“As of April 9 this year at the latest, you, Speaker Czarzasty, have placed yourself outside the bounds of law, reason, and Polish politics. Your past, activities, and contacts should have long ago barred you from holding office in a free Poland”, he wrote, addressing the coalition politician.
As he added: “Your crude attacks on the President of Poland (including today) are a sign of frustration and the awareness that we know who you are, and that we will never accept such disgrace in public life”.
In conclusion, he quoted a fragment of an article by Col. Ignacy Matuszewski titled “Polish” Communism, published in “Dziennik Polski” on June 3, 1946:
“The danger of communist rule over Poland is greater than the danger of communist rule over any other country, because power in the hands of ‘Polish’ communists is not only the power of obedient foreign agents, but also the power of psychopaths, ready to destroy not only on command but on their own impulse, to demolish not only the present but the entire past, not only for political victory, but above all to vent a pathological passion”.
