Michał Kołodziejczak in an interview published on Thursday's "GW" noted that there are presently besides many departments in the Ministry of Agriculture. “This makes it hard to control. They are not adapted to the present time, these are remnants from the 1990s. At the time, the structure of agriculture was different and another challenges faced this ministry. I would put much more energy on the departments active in the analysis, on better monitoring of the current situation and focus on the goals we want to accomplish in 10 or 20 years," he said.
“The Ministry should have a leading function in working on affirmative changes in farms, due to the fact that they must change so that farmers can live well. Helping those who have problems, or sometimes worse, is obvious, But you can't just deal with those who complain all the time, just want subsidies and compensation. “GW” Kołodziejczak said.
According to the Deputy Minister, the state must have real tools to civilise the food marketplace on behalf of consumer rights. — Now is the time to make an agricultural CPK “ He points out.
— I would have put my heart on the substance of moving the National Sugar Company under the supervision of the Ministry of State Assets, where it was crammed during the times of the PiS and Minister Jack Sasin. I'd like you to take control of this company so that it can actually develop. She should have shares in processing plants, in shops, expanding her business,” he explains.
Will the Deputy Minister cooperate with the erstwhile President? “He came to me”
Kołodziejczak besides refers to trade relations with Ukraine. “The investment is being discussed by Germany, the French, and the Italian government has just allocated EUR 11 million to agricultural investments. And 2 weeks ago, Dutch agribusiness began talks about joint investment with Ukraine in the agri-food industry. We can't stand by. I think it is essential to invest in Ukraine, as president Aleksander Kwasniewski says. We request to get in there fast. “ He pointed out.
“ Kwasniewski came to me erstwhile he heard the idea. He has good contacts in Ukraine and claims that that organization is interested. president Kwasniewski himself proposed that we form a joint squad that will prepare a detailed concept of the port in Ukraine. [...] We will have control of what is happening on 1 of the most crucial trade routes in the world, or through the Black Sea, reported MRIRW Deputy Chief.
The Deputy Minister besides acknowledged that he is in conflict with the PSL, which "wants to have a monopoly and activists are convinced that they will take possession of agricultural topics". — For this, however, efficiency and separation from people and their affairs are needed, clearly hinders, so they unload their desires in a different way — enjoying “party games” and trying to push others away, he pointed out.
