12.08.2025The Halting and Expelling Day
Polish media on August 12th continued its deep engagement with the escalating KPO scandal. Early reports highlighted alleged fund misuse for luxury items, with political figures trading accusations. The narrative intensified during the day, culminating in revelations implicating former PM Beata Szydło's husband in application evaluations. Amidst public outrage, a minister announced the halting of KPO payments. Concurrently, a new, significant domestic incident emerged: riots at a concert, leading Prime Minister Tusk to announce the expulsion of 63 individuals, an event that quickly dominated headlines and solidified into confirmed deportations of Ukrainians and Belarusians. Throughout the day, President Nawrocki maintained his prominent public role, responding sharply to Prime Minister Tusk's remarks, asserting his independence, and announcing a presidential initiative for lower energy prices. International news, including US-China trade decisions and the upcoming Trump-Putin summit, received attention but remained secondary to these domestic developments.
