– In the world, Green Deal policy has failed. For example, the United States and Asian countries withdrew from it. What is more interesting, Germany withdraws from this policy, who close their wind plants and return to coal.

At the same time, Poland is to introduce renewable energy sources. This is absurd – Radio Kossalin, editor-in-chief of “Week Solidarity” Michał Ossowski stated on the air.

The defeat of Green Deal Policy

Michał Ossowski, editor-in-chief of “The Solidarity Week” emphasized in an interview with Anna Popławska on Radio Kossalin that Green Deal policy had failed in the world.

For example, the United States and Asian countries withdrew from it. What is more interesting, Germany withdraws from this policy, who close their wind plants and return to coal. This is due to the fact that they faced blackouts. However, something needs to be done with the equipment utilized so far to produce "green energy". And you effort to decision it to Poland. The draft Windmill Act, which was vetoed by the President, shows how different EU countries are heading. Germany returns to coal, and Poland at the same time is to make RES. That's absurd.

Ossowski asked whether rejection of ETS 2 would mean “Polexit”, indicated that Slovakia is already preparing to reject ETS 2 and the Czech Republic is talking about it.

This is not a substance of “Polexitu” but of the safety of our lives. Our study shows that we are incapable to bear the costs of energy transformation. In our report, for example, we calculate that the costs of introducing this strategy for the average household will be around PLN 1400 – PLN 2,000. If we talk about the costs, e.g. the transport company, which has 10 cars, they will amount to about half a million PLN per year. And the entrepreneur's gonna gotta take it back somewhere, which means he's either gonna rise prices or fire people. The costs of transformation will be passed on to citizens, which means a drastic increase in the cost of living. Talking about whether or not it is “Polexit” is simply a distraction from the point of view. all year, we will be poorer and little competitive,” stressed the editor-in-chief “TS”. Ossowski pointed out the absurdity of energy transformation on the example of the Lower Odra Power Plant.

The cost of extinguishing the Lower Odra Power Plant will be higher than the cost of transforming it into a biomass burning plant, allowing it to proceed to operate and preserve jobs

He pointed to the social costs of transformation.

We've got more and more demonstrations, employees are dissatisfied, that's what's happening. Demonstrations of the Lower Odra, Enea, next day will be demonstrations of energy engineers in Warsaw, and it will not end there. erstwhile asked about the EU-Mercosur agreement, he stated that it was highly unfavourable for Poland and rather beneficial for Germany.

The signing of this agreement will have disastrous consequences for European agriculture, and Poland will be peculiarly affected. The EU's signing of the Mercosur agreement is destroying the European interior market," Ossowski said.

Record budget deficit

With respect to next year's budget, the editor-in-chief of “TS” found it highly dangerous for workers.

We have a budget with a evidence deficit since 1989. It's hard to talk about optimism and security. From the point of view of the workers, this is an highly dangerous situation. We have rising unemployment, and next year will be even worse, fresh taxes, fresh burdens, life will become even more hard for entrepreneurs, who will surely be making further reductions in terms of workers. The first ETS 2 regulations are to enter into 2026. They will already straight affect citizens, unlike the ETS 1, which mainly affected energy-generating businesses. The fresh burdens will affect, for example, representatives of the commercial, construction industry, which will consequently translate into the cost of surviving of the average citizen. The budget deficit already translates into labour issues, working through collective redundancies is about to lose more than 100,000 people – noted Michał Ossowski.

In consequence to the question of the relation of the Union to the CIT taxation scheme, he stated:

As far as the CIT draft for banks is concerned, it is welcomed by us due to the fact that it imposes a burden on manufacture that generates evidence profits. It is known that the banking sector will not have the same impact on the labour market, specified as taxation regulations related to ETS 2 in the energy sector.
