In “Gazeta Wyborcza” (16.04.20125), the text by Wojciech Czuchnowski entitled “List of influences of Putin” was published. The Guardian General Commission has submitted a list of 25 names to the ABW’.
The names of the editors and publicists of the Polish Ministry were besides included on this list: Jan Engelgard, Przemysław Piasty, Prof. Anna Raźny, Konrad Rękas and for reasons unknown to us by Artur Zawisza. The text states: “In February, the committee sent the interior safety Agency a list of 25 names of people who actively spread Russian propaganda in Poland. There are besides names of portals dealing with the transmission of pro-Russian content, anti-European propaganda, anti-Ukrainian propaganda and directed against NATO. Against any of them, the committee has hard evidence that they are funded with Kremlin money. The full letter to Homeland safety is classified. The Guardian's Commission asks what actions the ABW is taking against these individuals and entities, whether there are investigations initiated in their case from the NSA's report, which are yet the possibilities of blocking their parties in the event of an increase in the conflict between Poland and Russia. We have managed to identify any of the names of the persons who were listed to the services by the committee.
"Myśli Polska" – "hub Putin". According to our interviewer with the committee, the most crucial origin of Kremlin propaganda in Poland is the environment centered around the Publishing home “Myśl Polska”, registered in Warsaw at Jerusalem Avenue. “Think Poland” is the main hub for these initiatives – we hear. At the same address are the following organizations with more or little exotic names: among others, the National organization Association, the National Institute Association, the Roman Dmowski National Foundation, the Polish Anti-War Movement, the organization Change, the Polish Repair Movement, the Christian Restoration of Europe Association, the Social Committee for Promotion of Poland and the Fight against Anti-Polonism, the Conservative-Monarchist Club, etc.
“Think Poland” itself has its own net TV. There, he promotes Grzegorz Braun, calls on Ukrainians surviving in Poland to "go home" and distributes fakenews about the preference of Ukrainians in queues to the doctor, their crime and money that they get from our country and for which they "show no gratitude". In its view, the European Union is simply a "totaliztic creature", Ukraine is simply a “bandero-fascist state”, and “special operation in Ukraine” was provoked by Americans. In addition to the tv channel "Thinking of Poland", the committee in a letter to the ABW lists related portals. Among them are: nationalists.net, national.info, endings.info. They repeat pro-Russian, anti-European, anti-Western and anti-Ukrainian content. “We identify the common objectives of these publications,” says 1 of the members of the committee. He mentions: a simplification of assurance in the Polish government (both the erstwhile and the present); the disintegration of the European Union; a weakening of the West as a whole; a quarrel between Poland and Ukraine".
The following conclusions are so drawn:
First of all, This is simply a typical example of the non-legal, conflicting with the Constitution and the rules applicable in countries that consider themselves democratic – actions aimed at closing the discussion in Poland on the fundamental topics for the future of the Polish people. This is, to put it plainly, calling for execution and censorship under the appearance of concern for “the safety of the state”. The publication of any passages of the ‘secret’ Commission report, Gen. The Guardian is besides a sharp violation of the law by an anonymous associate of this Kuriosian Commission and by the "Electoral Gazette" itself. It is typical of the practice of the III Polish Republic, utilized by all parties to the political dispute, "contrasted leak" to the media. This has nothing to do with honest journalism, with which for many years the “Gazeta Wyborcza” has been proclaimed, is simply a simple task to destruct people and environments considered uncomfortable
Second, the insinuations contained in the text, that the activity of the “Polish Ministry” is not only a tool in the hands of another state, it is possibly besides financed by them – they are a typical example of the operation of the “gore hat thief” principle. It is not “Think Poland” that is financed or inspired from outside. According to the data disclosed not so long ago by Donald Trump's administration – generously with the aid of the USAID fund, various liberal entities benefited in Poland, including “Gazeta Wyborcza” – in the last 8 years (2016-2023) the editorial board received about $20 million, or 2.5 million a year. For years, “Gazeta Wyborcza” has besides been utilizing “the help” of the Georg Soros Empire. For this money, the media and portals stuffed with abroad millions of dollars deal, among others, with the tracking of “Russian agents” and “Russian influences”. The destructive effect on freedom of speech and fair public debate, not only in Poland, but practically in all the countries of the European Union (the fresh revelation of scandalous facts about the spheres of media activity in Germany) is widely known.
Third, as a substance of fact, we do not accept the attempts to bring back a mission which for over 80 years has been full of the weekly weekly “Think Poland” to quasi-agent propaganda activities in favour of a 3rd country. Any reasonably wise journalist, if he were honest, would know that 1 of the foundations of the ideology and the program of the National Democracy camp for over 100 years – is the request of a permanent, correct and good neighbourly arrangement of Poland's sovereign relation with Russia. In particular, Roman Dmowski wrote: “The slave is raising slaves. Slaves are either submissive and obedient or rebellious. Rebels can only search vengeance on their masters, but neither fight for freedom nor live in freedom; they always stay slaves. In our country, slavery lasted so long and so dense that it created many hosts of slaves—and submissive, and rebellious. ... Finally, how many who did not know how to think about Poland, only about how to harm Moscow!” (Polish Policy and the Restoration of the State) and elsewhere: “Our nation must be clear about its [Russia] position and its function in the world, and must know well what it is striving for towards Russia. This is the most hard part for Polish thought, but surely the most crucial part of our external policy for the future of Poland.
Fourthly, "Think Poland", from the very beginning of its activity in Poland, i.e. since 1993, has considered this request to be 1 of the most important, especially since for the first time in past Poland and Russia could establish their relations on equal terms, without the dominance of 1 of the parties. In our view, this historical chance has been wasted, successively, step by step, destroying our relation with admirable memory. We have been paying attention to the harmfulness of specified a policy for Poland from the very beginning, informing about, among others, the Ukrainian card being played against Russia. So what we are writing now is not any invention of Russian propaganda. We wrote about the dangers of rebirth in Ukraine long before specified a danger was noticed in Russia. In the 1990s, our position was shared by people from another political camps, including Stanisław Stomma, Prof. Andrzej Walicki, Prof. Bronisław Łagowski, Aleksander Hall, Prof. Czesław Bartnik or prof. Bogusław Wolniewicz, and even Jerzy Giedroć (yes!).
Finally, we inform “Gazeta Pervert” that the case will find its epilogue in court. In respective cases, the courts have called us right, and Mr Przemysław Witkowski, presenting the same views as “Gazeta Wyborcza”, fearing the loser, was forced to apologize for utilizing the phrase “One of the most crucial tubes of Russian propaganda in Poland”.
