Plans by Andrzej Duda

In early June, Andrzej Duda was asked about his plans after the end of his term. He declared that, if, after the end of his presidency, there was a request and a function he could perform, he would "very seriously consider taking it" - unless he stated that he would not violate the dignity of the office of president of the Republic of Poland. He added that he always treated his function in politics servilely, and what function he would possibly take will depend on "what political needs and social perspectives will be."

When asked about it, whether the function of Prime Minister violates the dignity of this office, the president recalled that after the end of his presidential second term, Aleksander Kwasniewski "was presented by the Left as a candidate for Prime Minister". As he noted, "no 1 then questioned it," whether it would be an appropriate function for the erstwhile president.

Andrzej Duda stressed that the function of the head of government is "the most crucial executive function in the state". At the same time - as he pointed out - the Prime Minister has the most tasks to execute and the most competences, of all possible functions in the country, so - in his opinion - I'm sorry. "there is no breach of dignity" of the office of the head of state. We wrote about it. HERE.
