Waldemar Żurek made a mockery of Karol Nawrocki on 3 September, writing about the underdelivered nicotine sachets to the Palace. The president is to be interviewed as a witness in an investigation into 4 Constitutional Court judges and announced cooperation. The Minister responded with a individual mockery, lowering the rank of a serious dispute between state institutions.
Personal pin alternatively of the seriousness of the state
Minister of Justice and lawyer General Waldemar Żurek responded on social media to Thursday's message by president Karol Nawrocki. He wrote that individual at the Palace did not deliver “a nicotine sachet” in time. It was an allusion to the publically known usage by the president of this kind of product.
The minister can powerfully defend the prosecution's actions. He has the right to argue with the head of state, especially erstwhile he himself has been attacked by words about “favors”. However, there is no work to be mocked. From the man who directs the ministry of justice and is the head of the prosecutor's office, Poles have the right to require the language of the institution, not the online harassment.
Nawrocki agrees to the hearing
The D.A. has asked the president to indicate a convenient location and time of hearing. Karol Nawrocki is to appear as a witness, not a suspect. This discrimination is fundamental. The specified fact of the summons does not mean to charge him or prejudge anyone's responsibility.
The president declared that the proceeding would take place and that he would invitation the prosecutor to the Presidential Palace. At the same time, he assessed the proceedings as unimportant to the state and aggravating to the current power. Nawrocki's full declaration on cooperation with investigators We have already described in the National Journal.
Żurek replied that the president is governed by the same law as any citizen, and the anticipation of indicating the time and conduct of operations at the Palace is due to respect for the office. This substantive argument defends itself. All the more incomprehensible is packaging it into a individual touch. The seriousness of the law does not grow from the spite of the minister.
The investigation concerns 4 TK judges
The proceedings were initiated on 21 April 2026 after notification by the judges Magdalena Bentkowska and Dariusz Szostek. It concerns not allowing 4 people elected by the Sejm on 13 March: Marcin Dziurda, Krystian Markiewicz, Anna Korwin-Piotrowska and Maciej Taborowski.
According to the information provided by the Advocate General Anna Adamiak investigators interviewed over 40 witnesses, including employees of the Chancellery of the president of Poland and the Constitutional Court, and secured documents. The D.A. found the president's evidence essential to find the circumstances of the case.
The background of the conflict is wider. Of the six judges elected by the Sejm in March, Nawrocki received a vow from Magdalena Bentkowska and Dariusz Szostek. The remaining 4 later made a vow during the ceremony at the Sejm, utilizing the expression that he does so to the President. The president of TK Bogdan Święczkowski did not consider this act a pledge to the head of state.
The State cannot talk the language of the notes
Official study of the President's Chancellery from the Briefing 3 September confirms that Nawrocki has announced to submit to the hearing, although he has not yet indicated a date due to public and abroad obligations. In this situation, portraying his words simply as an obfuscination distorts the image. There's a heated dispute over the merits of the investigation, but the declaration of cooperation was clear.
Poland has had adequate of the war of the institution conducted by means of conferences, entries and common pinches. The dispute over the election of the TK judges and the function of the President touches the constitutional order, and so the foundation of the state. He shouldn't be brought in to a drug joke.
Trust in the law is at stake for Poles. The prosecution must act without political rematching, the president should cooperate in legal activities, and the minister has a work to weigh words. Hardness is not a mockery. It is besides about maintaining the standard erstwhile a political opponent himself uses a sharp language.
