05.12.2024The Day Ziobro Lost His Shield While Russia Closed Gates
Morning media focused on coalition tensions between Tusk and Hołownia regarding the pace of PiS accountability processes. By noon, attention shifted to ABW's arrest of Olgierd L., whose name appeared in reports concerning Nawrocki's candidacy.

The afternoon brought two major developments: Parliament voted to lift Zbigniew Ziobro's immunity (241-204), enabling his forced appearance before the Pegasus commission, while Russia announced the closure of Poland's consulate in St. Petersburg. Ziobro, making his second parliament appearance since medical leave, challenged the commission's legitimacy.

Evening coverage centered on reports of peace talk preparations between Ukraine and Trump's team, while British intelligence released data on Russian military losses. The day concluded with news of a former police officer's death following a manhunt in Siedlce, where he had allegedly killed his wife.

Kadencja prezydenta dobiegnie końca w sierpniu. Jego widoki na przyszłość w międzynarodowych organizacjach pozostają mgliste, bo na poparcie rządu Donalda Tuska, którego głos jest w Europie słuchany i słyszany, liczyć nie może. Niedawno Duda żartował, że mógłby założyć firmę konsultingową. Wątpliwe, by stworzył własną partię czy ruch polityczny. Mógłby za to trafić do MKOl.
