KO politicians translate the words of Trzaskovsky. “Even Korea talks to Russia”

Rafał Trzaskowski in this election campaign, he made clear safety as the theme. president of Warsaw explained in the programme “Most crucial Questions” in Polsat News, taught Kamala Harris' experience of her losing U.S. election, that it is better to bet on two-three circumstantial themes than the 100 that fly off their heads.

The second motive for the candidate KO from the beginning is the alleged economical patriotism. Trzaskowski spoke about this already during the convention in Gliwice, he emphasized it more powerfully erstwhile presenting the thought of rebuilding COP in Podkarpacie, but he besides mentions it at almost all gathering with voters. The same subject besides appeared during the program "Most crucial Questions" in Polsat News, where already in the first questions he was asked to change his views.

Rafał Trzaskowski: We must be self-sufficient

– It is natural that priorities change, which does not mean that the way of seeing the planet changes. Today we must be self-sufficient, We gotta invest in our own industry, due to the fact that the full planet has changed and turned upside down – said Trzaskowski.

– I'm saying what I believe. For me it is completely natural that Today we should be self-sufficient. 10-15 years ago, you didn't gotta think like that. I am giving a lecture on the trade agreements of the European Union, the external relations of the European Union. 15-20 years ago, we signed agreements with the full world, both the European Union and the United States exported any of their industrial powers to Asia. due to the fact that we believed that globalisation would aid us to accomplish competitiveness. And it was. Today the planet has changed. And today, first of all, we should be self-sufficient. – he argued.

In fact, in 1 statement, Trzaskowski utilized the phrase "self-sufficiency" 3 times. But what does this self-sufficiency mean in practice? In the following part of the programme, the KO candidate spoke about the request for very close cooperation within the European Union as well as in NATO. He stressed the importance of alliances and the function of negotiations. What, then, is the self-sufficiency of Trzaskovsky? Is it all about self-sufficiency in times of crisis?

Citizens' Coalition Members come to our aid – Dorota Loboda and Krystyna Skowronska. The first is simply a press spokesperson for the KO club and coordinator of the action “Women with Trzaski” and the second organized meetings of Trzaskowski with residents of Podkarpacia.

The MPs explain: economical patriotism

– We live in a post-covid planet erstwhile we see how easy supply chains break down. The planet has become very unpredictable besides in the context of war. Poland needs to focus on its own industry, its own defence, what Rafał calls "economic patriotism", which means supporting its own entrepreneurs – explains Lobod.

– This is simply a broad safety context, not just in the war sense. It is besides about energy security, food security, not only military security," he adds.

Krystyna Skowrońska besides points to the arms industry, but not only. It's about security. Production should take place where we buy. We must invest at least half of the investment in Poland. It is besides about food security, as well as water safety as the most crucial thing. We should besides effort to invest in young people, support our talents, not buy projects, ideas abroad – he argues.

One crucial component of Trzaskowski's run to date was a tiny tour after Podkarpacie. The Citizen Coalition candidate presented an thought about which more editor Jakub Szczepański wrote in Interii. It's about returning to the thought of the Central Industrial District. Even before the war in Mielec, Stalowa Wola, Nowa Sarzyna, Tarnobrzeg or Rzeszów were located strategical points of the Polish defence industry. The thought of creating COP was highly ambitious at the time, and Trzaskowski wants to return to it.

I like the thought of the Central Industrial District. I am from Podkarpacie and I remind you that we built the first bomber in 1936 right here in Podkarpacie. The priorities in the planet are changing, so it is crucial – Skowrońska tells us.

However, he adds that Trzaskovsky's thought of "self-sufficiency" and "economic patriotism" is not limited to a possible time of crisis. I realize this is simply a long-term project. Only specified a look will give us a better position on building the economy – he emphasizes.

Skowronska: Even North Korea cooperates with Russia

Yet, both of our conversationalists have no uncertainty that full self-sufficiency seems to be just a dream.

– Of course, it is impossible to be completely self-sufficient, and Rafał Trzaskowski besides realizes this – says Interii Loboda. "That is why he stresses that we should work together within the European Union, but as far as possible we should focus on our own industry, our own defence. We want to be as independent as possible in today's world," he adds.

– Nobody can shut up. As practice shows, there is no specified country in the world. Even North Korea cooperates with Russia. In this regard, Rafał meant maximizing what we can do. The United States is simply a power, but it is besides not 100 percent self-sufficient," Skowronska notes.
