Comments of PiS. “An opponent against whom great work must be done”
Politicians of law and justice explained the decision of KO. Zbigniew Boguchki, a representative of this party, said that “the result can be predicted because the primary election was proposed by Trzaskowski himself.”
– Sikorsky was humiliated, because Trzaskovsky humiliated him if he received only a quarter of the votes. Radosław Sikorski tried to resist, he tried to lower Rafal Trzaszkowski, to expose some of his flaws and weaknesses, but Trzaszkowski's previous actions were decisive within the party, the politician said.
He also admitted that “for us, this is an opponent against whom we have to do a lot.” – We do not belittle anyone. We do not diminish Rafal Trzaskovsky, we have never done so. We have to work hard, but we will win the election with our candidate, who will be announced tomorrow, said Bogutski.
In his opinion, Trzaszkowski is “a very left-wing candidate who represents the radical left program that he will show as the president of Warsaw.” – For example, it is enough to mention the removal of the cross or various issues related to LGBT, – he said.
– We cannot forget that he is the vice-chairman of the Civic Platform, he is Tusk's deputy, so the issue of high prices, big deficits, postponement of major investments such as KPK, unfulfilled promises after the elections are not only the responsibility of Tusk or the parliaments of the Republic of Poland. , but from Trzaskovsky as deputy leader of the Civic Platform – he argued.
According to the PiS MP, Trzaskovsky should “explain in the campaign everything they did not keep and everything they destroyed during the year of their rule.”

From our point of view, the most important thing is to bring the entire political scene of the right closer together. This will be the key to victory – said the PiS deputy, former head of the Ministry of Education and Science.
– We respect our opponent, who won the primaries in his party, – he assured. He also noted that “Rafal Trzaszkowski has his flaws and has done a lot of shame as the president of Warsaw.”

Michal Vos, MP for Law and Justice from Sovereign Poland (the party recently merged with PiS), wrote on the website) shows the “value” of Roman Giertich and Klaudia Jaczyra. Both Giertich and Jachira supported Sikorsky.
