He added that while someone on their side occasionally gives vent to frustration and animosity, he tries not to answer hatred with hatred or frustration with frustration, choosing instead to look to the future. Interviewer Jacek Prusinowski then brought up Jacek Kurski&#8217;s recent statements on Telewizja Republika, where Kurski claimed that Morawiecki acted on Donald Tusk&#8217;s orders to break up PiS, and that Tusk shook hands with Putin over the remains of Lech Kaczy\u0144ski using the same hands he used a month earlier to appoint Morawiecki.<\/p>\n<h4>Not Surprised by Kurski<\/h4>\n<p>The former prime minister admitted he was not surprised by Kurski&#8217;s words, expressing gladness that Kurski has become the face of PiS due to internet reactions. He remarked that every party needs its own Jacek to lose, comparing it to Platforma having Jacek Mura\u0144ski, and stated that if PiS adopts such a figure on its banners, one can only applaud. Confronted with the fact that Kurski served as president of Telewizja Polska during his government, Morawiecki replied that Kurski operated strictly under the umbrella of President Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski alone.<\/p>\n<h4>Skepticism Toward Propaganda<\/h4>\n<p>Morawiecki also argued that he was skeptical of the role entrusted to Kurski from the start, stating that he never liked that propaganda and voiced his opposition on numerous forums, particularly internal ones. He noted that he also expressed it publicly, which brought him retaliation from Kurski, who portrayed him in a very unfavorable light. Jacek Mura\u0144ski, mentioned by Morawiecki, is a freak fight participant previously imprisoned for assault, who accused Karol Nawrocki of protecting escort agencies during the presidential campaign\u2014statements later cited by Donald Tusk.<\/p>\n<h4>Potential New Parliamentary Club<\/h4>\n<p>Regarding the internal party crisis, Morawiecki announced that he called a meeting of association members for 8:00 PM the following day, after the PiS Political Committee meeting. He described it as a potentially interesting, important, and turbulent gathering covering substantive, programmatic, conceptual, and operational aspects, adding that they will need to find a formula if they are expelled from the party. He explicitly stated that if they are expelled, they will most likely establish their own parliamentary club.<\/p>\n<h4>Ultimatums and Departures<\/h4>\n<p>The deadline set by the party leadership passed at midnight on Thursday, July 23, requiring parliamentarians to sign declarations stating they do not belong to other associations, under threat of expulsion. The directive primarily targeted members of the Rozw\u00f3j Plus Association founded by Morawiecki. The following day, Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski announced that over thirty MPs had resigned their membership in the grouping, prompting a scheduled meeting of the PiS Political Committee on Tuesday, July 28, to confirm the developments.<\/p>\n<h4>Defense of Two Lungs Strategy<\/h4>\n<p>Morawiecki maintained that he wanted to remain in Law and Justice until the very end and continue the strategy of two lungs announced by Jaros\u0142aw Kaczy\u0144ski a few months after the former prime minister announced the creation of his association. However, the former prime minister emphasized that they cannot agree to allow a recently agreed strategy to end up in the trash through ultimatums or blackmail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has dismissed accusations from Jacek Kurski that he acted on Donald Tusk&#8217;s orders to fracture PiS, while warning of a potential new parliamentary club.
