Jacek Sasin announces a police complaint against Prime Minister Donald Tusk, alleging wrongdoing in the distribution of National Reconstruction Plan funds.
Sasin Files Complaint Against Tusk
Opposition MP Jacek Sasin announced on Saturday, August 9, that he would file a report with prosecutors accusing Prime Minister Donald Tusk of potential criminal conduct in the allocation of National Reconstruction Plan (KPO) money. He urged Justice Minister Zurek to address the KPO affair with the same vigor as the alleged Fund for Justice scandal.
Prime Minister Firm on KPO Affair
In a post on X, Prime Minister Tusk emphasized that billions of euros from the KPO represent major development projects for Poland. He noted that substantial effort was invested to unlock these funds to prevent wastage, and warned that anyone who erred would face consequences regardless of party affiliation. He also stated that PiS’s lies and manipulation offer no justification to any.
KPO Investment Map Unveiled
The government website dedicated to the National Reconstruction Plan published a detailed investment map, outlining recipients of EU money. The allocation to the HoReCa sector raised questions, as hotel and restaurant owners reportedly used EU funds to purchase yachts, motorboats, saunas, and solariums. Due to irregularities in KPO funding, Katarzyna Duber‑Stachurska was removed from her position as President of the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development (PARP) in late July.
