The ultimatum, which expires on July 22, affects organizations linked to figures like Mateusz Morawiecki and Jacek Sasin.<\/p>\n<p>While Sasin complied with the directive, Morawiecki declared his intent to continue the work of his organization, &#8220;Rozw\u00f3j Plus.&#8221; A letter supporting his position was signed by 45 parliamentarians and MEPs.<\/p>\n<h4>Czarnek&#8217;s Controversial Stance<\/h4>\n<p>Meanwhile, Przemys\u0142aw Czarnek, a contender for the party&#8217;s future prime minister nomination, suggested on TV Republika that the European Union should halt funding for Ukraine&#8217;s defense and reconstruction until it changes its policy toward Poland.<\/p>\n<p>Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski quickly distanced the party from these remarks, emphasizing that military aid to Ukraine remains a critical matter for Polish national security and stating that the party leadership would address Czarnek&#8217;s comments.<\/p>\n<h4>Public Preference<\/h4>\n<p>A United Surveys by IBRiS poll conducted for Wirtualna Polska on July 16-17 reveals that 40.7 percent of respondents prefer Mateusz Morawiecki as the PiS candidate for prime minister, compared to 18 percent for Przemys\u0142aw Czarnek. A large segment of respondents, 41.3 percent, were undecided.<\/p>\n<p>Among opposition voters, the gap narrows significantly, with 37 percent favoring Morawiecki and 36 percent supporting Czarnek. The study was conducted on a nationwide sample of 1,000 adults using a mix-mode method.<\/p>\n<h4>Future of Morawiecki in PiS<\/h4>\n<p>Given the ultimatum, speculation persists that Kaczy\u0144ski may move to remove Morawiecki and his loyalists from the party. Previous polling from the Instytut Bada\u0144 Pollster suggests that 56 percent of those surveyed would support or lean toward the idea of Morawiecki leaving PiS to form his own party.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the Law and Justice party faces internal friction over a leadership ban on independent foundations, a new poll suggests Mateusz Morawiecki holds a clear advantage over Przemys\u0142aw Czarnek as preferred prime ministerial candidate.
