Jarosław Kaczyński, president of Law and Justice (PiS), issued a message in which he referred to fresh political events, including Richard Czarnecki's detention by the Central Anti-corruption Office (CBA). In a communication published on social media, Kaczyński accused state services of conducting a "planned political-media action" aimed at diverting attention from the problems and abuses of the current ruling coalition.
"Planned Political-Media Action"
In his statement, Kaczyński pointed out that the actions of the prosecutors and another law enforcement authorities are part of a broader strategy of the current power, which aims to divert attention from the burning problems of the country. The president of PiS stressed that coalition politicians are active in many crimes, which he stated are “swept under the carpet”, while the detention of Ryszard Czarnecki is to be an example of instrumental usage of state services.
‘Neoprocurature’ and Political Games
Kaczyński besides referred to the prosecution's actions in his statement, calling it "neoprocurature". In his opinion, Donald Tusk and Adam Bodnar direct the services in a political way, trying to cover up serious irregularities of the current power. "Tusk and his neo-prosecution did not detect anything new," Kaczyński wrote, suggesting that actions against PiS politicians were previously investigated by law enforcement authorities during the time of the party's government.
politicized Services and deficiency of Trust
Kaczyński besides expressed a deficiency of assurance in the current services, claiming that they are "illegally seized" and acting on behalf of the current authorities. In the statement, strong accusations were made against Donald Tusk, who, according to Kaczyński, together with his colleagues, seeks revenge on opposition politicians, utilizing a state apparatus.
PiS — ‘Constructive Opposition’
The president of PiS announced that his organization would act as a "constructive opposition", which would monitor the actions of the current ruling coalition all day. "We will show a real alternate to these disastrous governments for our homeland," Kaczyński declared, at the same time encouraging to participate in a Saturday protest in Warsaw, which is to be a manifestation of opposition to the actions of the current power.
Political Analysis and the Social Context
Kaczyński's message fits into the broader context of the tense political situation in Poland. The conflict between the Law and the current ruling coalition has reached a fresh level, and the common accusations of abuse of power and manipulation of public opinion are increasingly apparent. The arrest of Ryszard Czarnecki by the CBA can be seen as part of the political conflict that takes place at the highest levels of the state.
Are the Services acting on the Political Order?
The issue of politicising public services is crucial in the current public debate. Both the PiS and the ruling coalition accuse each another of utilizing law enforcement for political purposes. In the context of increasing tensions and common accusations, the future of the Polish political scene seems uncertain, and divisions between parties – deeper and deeper.
Protest in Warsaw: Another Political Act of Combat
The protest in Warsaw announced on Saturday may become another hot place in Polish politics. The opposition hopes to show the strength of its movement, simultaneously mobilising its supporters to argue the governments of the current coalition. This event will be an crucial indicator of the direction in which Polish policy is headed and what strategies the main political parties will adopt in the coming months.
