Nawrocki wants a referendum on EU policy, Poles attribute more blame to him
Poland's President Karol Nawrocki announced on Friday that he has turned to the Senate with a proposal to call a referendum. It is a referendum concerning Poland's participation in the EU's climate policy. According to available documents, Nawrocki wants, in practical terms, to force the government to negotiate in Brussels for Poland's exclusion from the European Union's climate policy. On this occasion, Nawrocki said that this is a matter that affects the lives of millions of Polish families. Onet Wiadomosci ↗ Onet Wiadomosci ↗
However, the success of the referendum is extremely unlikely. For the president's referendum proposal to go ahead, it would also have to be approved by the Senate, which is not possible given the current political composition of parliament. Index.hu ↗
According to an SW Research poll, the largest group of Poles believes that Karol Nawrocki bears primary responsibility for the growing dispute between the president and the government. In second place was the government led by Prime Minister Donald Tusk. On Friday at ten o'clock in the morning, Nawrocki also appointed the head of the National Security Bureau. At the same time, he is facing an investigation, including the case involving the apartment in the Museum of the Second World War in Gdańsk, while the President's Chancellery assures that Nawrocki is ready to be questioned.
