“Solidarity” supports farmers’ protests. “We will organize protest actions together”

Meanwhile, the chairman of NSZZ “Solidarność”, Piotr Duda, also announced yesterday that he was joining the farmers’ strike. “Today, during the meeting of the National Commission, we decided to provide active support to protesting farmers. We will organize protest actions together until our authorities start defending Poland’s interests and oppose European climate policy, which is contrary to our interests, impoverishes society and eliminates thousands of jobs. We will not allow the EU elites to destroy our economy,” he wrote on social media.

During Thursday’s meeting of the National Commission of NSZZ “Solidarity”, its members unanimously adopted a resolution regarding the protest against the “Green Deal” and cooperation with protesting farmers. Piotr Duda assessed that the European Union’s climate policy “is a disaster for the Polish economy.”

Rich countries that have made money on cheap coal energy, have modern nuclear power plants and have exported the worst production to Asia, can afford green whims. We are their competition and the ‘Green Deal’ is a tool to fight this competition. (…) Moreover, the costs associated with achieving climate neutrality are unimaginable. We are unable to bear them

The chairman of “Solidarity” said that Prime Minister Donald Tusk “is making hysterical moves in defense of the disastrous policy of the ‘Green Deal’.” – But no government will shut us up. The policy supported by the current authorities will not only affect farmers, miners and energy workers. It will hit all of us, regardless of who and what political sympathies they have, Duda said.

“Solidarity”: Donald Tusk’s words are unacceptable manipulation

NSZZ “Solidarność” also issued a statement regarding Tusk’s decision to include, among others, on the list of critical infrastructure. border crossings with Ukraine. The Prime Minister’s assurance about the delivery of military equipment, ammunition, medical and humanitarian supplies without delays was also commented on.

“NSZZ RI ‘Solidarity’ firmly opposes the theses contained in today’s statement of the Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, and denies all information that farmers are obstructing military and humanitarian transports with their protest on the Polish-Ukrainian border. We firmly declare that vehicles carrying humanitarian aid, military and ADR vehicles are passed through all blockades on an ongoing basis, out of order, and we are not aware of any cases of such transports being blocked” – .

The Prime Minister’s words are an unacceptable manipulation intended to suppress agricultural protests and divert attention from the incompetence of the Polish government and the abandonment of systemic solutions for failing Polish family farms. NSZZ RI ‘Solidarity’ declares that, as one of the organizers of the protests, we are obliged to comply with the law and ensure safe conditions for activities carried out as part of the 30-day general strike of farmers. Any reports suggesting otherwise are false and constitute false accusations
