Sellin on Tusk's words at the club "GW": says the man who liquidated Polish shipyards

Selin was asked on the Third Programme of Polish Radio about Donald Tusk's statement on Thursday at the "Gazeta Wyborcza" Club, which he was a guest of.

Former Prime Minister asked about the program and the situation of the current opposition said, "The opposition program should be +go PiS-ie+ that it will use an old-fashioned formula but in a positive language." "Why do we want the Law and Justice to leave power? We are positive values in Polish public life" - said Tusk. He also argued that "the PiS agenda is a Russian agenda in every dimension: internal, European, global or directly in eastern matters".

"Well, this is what the man in Moscow said that + is our man in Warsaw+, and he said +Putin is our man in Moscow+," said Sellin, referring to Donald Tusk's statements.

"This is said by a man who signed a very unfavourable contract for Poland – he agreed to sign, when he led the government, for many years to bind Poland with a very unprofitable gas contract with Russia," the Deputy Minister of Culture assessed. "This is said by the man who led to the liquidation of Polish shipyards, so narrowing the possibility of competition in the Baltic even with Russia," he argued.

"I think that in every dimension (...), which he described – it was rather a description of the state of Poland in relations with Russia from the time of his rule", said Sellin. "Not to mention the disaster – and the double catastrophe of the Polish state, which during his reign took place, that is, the terrible Smolensk catastrophe in the form of the death of one third of the elite of the Polish state, and the second catastrophe, namely the abdication of the Polish state for its rule in a solid explanation of the case and the dedication of the investigation and hard evidence on this issue of Russia" - said Jarosław Sellin.
