The opposition submits a motion of no confidence in Mariusz Baszczak

– The motion for the dismissal of the minister of national defense is necessary – said Borys Budka in the Sejm, announcing together with Krzysztof Gawkowski the submission of a motion of no confidence in the head of the Ministry of National Defense Mariusz Błaszczak.

– There are two qualities that the head of the Ministry of National Defense should have – you must have honor and courage. Mariusz Błaszczak, attacking Polish officers and generals, lying about them, turned out to be a man without courage, who was afraid to take responsibility for his mistakes and simply chickened out. And yesterday he turned out to be a man without honor – he ran away from the committee meeting, he ran away from the Sejm because he was afraid that he would have to face uncomfortable questions, explained Budka.

– No one will ever be safe in Poland as long as Mariusz Błaszczak is the defense minister – said Krzysztof Gawkowski from the Left. – He proved that the only thing he can do is to be the first to escape from the battlefield. He escaped from the commission yesterday, just as he would have if there had been a war. He spent four months looking for a rocket. In no modern country after 1989 has there been such an experience that someone lost a rocket – he added.
