PiS wants to make Poland a state belonging to the party – accuses “FAZ”. State Secretary for Justice Marcin Romanowski answers the German newspaper.
The German press is commenting on PiS’s idea of organizing a referendum. “PiS wants to turn Poland into a party state,” says Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. Die Tageszeitung in turn writes about a “pseudo-referendum”.
Reinhard Veser, in his commentary for “FAZ”, estimates that the referendum only serves the election campaign. “On an unprecedented scale, PiS filled positions in state-owned companies with party supporters and used them for political purposes, such as buying the media. To this end, it also subordinated the judiciary to political control,” writes the “FAZ” journalist.
As he adds, the rulers are willing to “manipulate” the elections, and so far they have not done so because the opposition and media are too strong.
Romanowski: The German principal started the attack
Deputy Justice Minister Marcin Romanowski referred to the case.
“The ground must burn under their feet for the German patrons, as they themselves launched an attack on the Polish referendum. Until now, cell towers like Tusk have sufficed. “PiS state”, “pseudoreferendum” – we see that Germany will implement Weber’s doctrine of iron consistency,” Romanowski wrote on Twitter.
The politician was referring to the words of the president of the European People’s Party (EPP), Manfred Weber, who said in an interview with state television ZDF that “every party must accept the rule of law”. – This is a bulwark against PiS representatives in Poland, who systematically attack the rule of law and free media – he said.
The German politician believes that Jarosław Kaczyński’s formation is among those that “will fight” the EPP. He also described PiS as an “adversary”. It was this term that provoked such a response from PiS.
