11.07.2025Braun's Rebuke, Kaliningrad's Closing
Polish media heavily emphasized unfolding domestic political and legal events, alongside escalating international and historical controversies. Early reports continued discussions on internal coalition tensions and President Duda's controversial judicial reform remarks. By mid-morning, two new significant themes emerged: the 82nd anniversary of the Volhynia Massacre, prompting political calls for historical truth and exhumations, and an intensified focus on Poland's refugee policies, particularly regarding Ukrainians from occupied territories and the migration pact referendum. In the late morning, a major legal development saw Adam Bodnar's motion to compel former Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro's appearance before a commission. The afternoon was dominated by a new diplomatic escalation as Russia announced the closure of the Polish consulate in Kaliningrad. Concurrently, MP Grzegorz Braun's controversial statements on Auschwitz drew widespread condemnation from top political figures, including President Duda and Jarosław Kaczyński, who asserted his actions were harmful to national interests and potentially foreign-inspired.

Władza zajmująca się sobą przestaje zajmować wyborców. Spory o spotkanie Szymona Hołowni z Jarosławem Kaczyńskim, zmianę marszałka Sejmu, wybory prezydenckie czy rekonstrukcję rządu nie służą nikomu, poza PiS i Konfederacją. Koalicja zmarnowała kolejny tydzień.
