Navrotsky accused Tusk and the Speaker of the Sejm of having ties to Russia
Polish President Karol Nawrocki posted a video on social media in which he accused the ruling party of having pursued a policy of concessions toward Russia in the past.
Specifically, the video contains accusations against Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Speaker of the Polish Sejm Włodzimierz Czastowy.
This is stated in the video he posted on Facebook.
Navrotsky stated that for many years, those currently in power “have pursued a policy of concessions toward Russia, trading our national security for privileges from Putin.”
"And today they are trying to lecture us. Let’s not let lies defeat the truth," wrote the Polish president.
In the video, Tusk and Czajasty are accused of “lies and attacks” against the president, who has “been fighting for years to eliminate Russian influence.”
"Włodzimierz Chazasty, known for his communist past and ties to Russia, and Donald Tusk, the most pro-Russian prime minister in history, are baselessly attacking President Karol Nawrocki. Our leader has spent years striving to limit Russian influence. As head of the Institute of National Remembrance, he dismantled communist monuments, and as president of Poland, he directly calls Putin a criminal," the video states.
Among other things, the video quotes a post by the Speaker of the Sejm in which he published a photo of Nawrocki with the outgoing Prime Minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán. It also mentions Czazasta’s biography, highlighting his past membership in the Communist Party.
The section dedicated to Tusk speculates about his “pro-Russian” activities.
In particular, the video mentions his numerous previous meetings with Putin and conversations during which Tusk allegedly “sought input on the construction of a missile defense shield in Poland.” The video features archival footage of meetings between Tusk and Putin that took place long before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
"It was during his administration that our country became dependent on Russian gas, and Russian media referred to him as 'our man in Warsaw.' Belarusian dictator Lukashenko personally wished Tusk a return to power," the video states.
The Polish president reactedto the defeat of Orbán, whom he supported.
The Kremlin did not congratulate Magyar on his victory and called Hungary an unfriendly country.
Trump declined to comment on the defeat of his friend Orbán in the Hungarian elections.
As a reminder, according to the results of 98.93% of the votes counted, the Fidesz party received 69.35% of the vote. This gives the opposition 138 seats in parliament, allowing it to form a constitutional majority on its own.
