Foreign Minister Rados\u0142aw Sikorski also commented, suggesting that the president and the right-wing camp had previously supported the program despite their current rhetoric.<\/p>\n<h4>Veto and government implementation<\/h4>\n<p>The SAFE program provides 150 billion euros in EU support, including low-interest loans for military equipment, with 43.7 billion allocated to Poland. After President Nawrocki vetoed the implementing legislation in March, the government passed a resolution authorizing the ministers of defense and finance to sign the agreement, which was finalized on May 8.<\/p>\n<h4>Presidential proposal for a national alternative<\/h4>\n<p>President Nawrocki submitted his own &#8220;Polish SAFE 0 percent&#8221; project to the Sejm, proposing the use of profits generated by the National Bank of Poland. The Polish People&#8217;s Party (PSL) introduced an analogous project, with W\u0142adys\u0142aw Kosiniak-Kamysz noting that their version corrects errors found in the president&#8217;s proposal.<\/p>\n<h4>Demographics and strategic security<\/h4>\n<p>During the Poland Future Summit in Warsaw, where he served as honorary patron, President Nawrocki emphasized the country&#8217;s strategic challenges. He argued that there can be no development without security, asserting that demographics serve as the foundation for both.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, June 22, President Karol Nawrocki addressed the EU&#8217;s SAFE program, prompting a concise four-word response from Prime Minister Donald Tusk via social media the following day.
