Last night, Donald Tusk appeared on the Swiss-German Onet podcast hosted by TVN celebrity Jakub Wojewódzki and Piotr Kędzierski. The conversation became something of a sensation on social media, and interestingly, not only because of the topics discussed during it.
The discussion between Tusk, Wojewódzki, and Kędzierski revolved mainly around politics. The head of the December 13 coalition did not miss the opportunity to criticize his political predecessors.
In fact, this dynamic was fueled by the TVN celebrity, Jakub Wojewódzki.
Nevertheless, Tusk made several other “noteworthy” remarks, such as:
“When you ask me about my personal attitude toward Kaczyński, I get furious when I realize how much harm he has caused. And I don’t mean the times he won or lost against me, but rather how much poison he’s instilled in people’s minds and hearts, and that’s something that cannot be forgiven.”
Or this one:
“When I listen to Bąkiewicz, Kaczyński, the Confederation – I’ll be blunt: who are they afraid of? If there’s anyone in Poland they’re afraid of, it’s me. They wouldn’t be afraid of someone lazy, demobilized, or frustrated.”
And this one, about Adam Bodnar:
“For two years, in what is perhaps the most high-profile post, the Ministry of Justice, we had a minister I’m proud of. Adam Bodnar truly believed that it was possible to restore the rule of law in Poland through civilized means, but it turned out not to be true.”
“It’s a Matter of Respect”
However, Tusk’s statements are not the only thing that caught the attention of internet users on social media.
Jacek Ozdoba, a Member of the European Parliament from Law and Justice (PiS), pointed out an important fact, namely, who the Prime Minister chose to speak with.
“Wojewódzki has only recently been convicted and received one of the harshest sentences in history. He was also the face of a joint business venture with Janusz P. Public figures, at least until the case of Janusz P. is concluded, should not be legitimizing Wojewódzki,” the politician reminded.
As he added:
“It’s a matter of respect for the law and for the victims. If not Murański, then now Wojewódzki…”
