– I decided that I would not sign a bill that allows Poland to borrow SAFE – president Karol Nawrocki announced on Thursday (March 12), and his veto set a fresh direction for talks in Polish politics. abroad media besides rapidly described the case.
Germany clearly assesses the veto of Nawrocki on SAFE
Large German media unanimously measure Nawrocki's decision. "The president of Poland has blocked billions of euros of EU aid to his country" writes Welt.de and states that Poland "could receive billions from Brussels for weapons – but the president is braking".
The service recalls that since 2025 (after the presidential election) "an crucial EU and NATO associate no longer speaks with 1 voice on strategical issues". Journalists of the site besides explain the reason, writing that "the president, supported by the right-wing conservative opposition of the PiS, and Prime Minister Tusk come from opposing political camps".
"The fight for power in the country: the president of Poland blocks EU loans for arms" – the header of Berliner Zeitung's service. "Nawrocki is closely associated with the right-wing nationalist camp headed by Law and Justice (PiS)" – media journalists proceed to compose and remind that SAFE is criticized, among others, by Jarosław Kaczyński, but besides US Ambassadors to the EU and NATO, Andrew Puzder and Matthew Whitaker, who in an article published in Politico warned that European arms programs can "reduce competition and harm American companies".
"Despite attempts to convince him by the government, right-wing and conservative president of Poland Karol Nawrocki blocks Poland's participation in the multi-billion-dollar EU defence program SAFE" – read on the n-tv.de website, and the average recalls that "the EU wants to primarily aid Poland invest in the military".
Journalists of the service proceed to compose that "the president, right-wing populist was the governing organization of the Law and the full Polish right reject the program". "The European Commission spokesperson in Brussels said that they do not want to interfere in the Polish debate. However, the programme must be implemented for the safety of Poland, Ukraine and the EU as a whole" - we read in the German article n-tv.
"Polish president vetoed EU arms debt program worth €44 billion", Politico besides describes.
Polish right is outraged by what German media write. But they're happy in the Kremlin.
"The review of the abroad press shows who most criticizes president Karol Nawrocki for today's veto," wrote lawyer Bartosz Lewandowski, defender of Marcin Romanowski and Zbigniew Ziobry on Thursday evening.
"German Media (owner of @POLITICOEurope is Axel Springer SE). The most charming are the texts in the FAZ, in which a correspondent erstwhile wrote about 'a fellow Polish for the Holocaust' laments that the president and the opposition express doubts about SAFE' – he thundered in his entry on the X platform.
But net users rapidly brought out the counter. In consequence to comments, they posted further screenshots from Russian articles, showing that Nawrocki's decision enjoyed the Kremlin. Let us remind that on Friday morning 1 of them besides got a profile of head of the MFA Radosław Sikorski. "The president of Poland vetoed an crucial defence of the country" was the title, and the politician in his entry eloquently asked: "Enjoyed of himself, Karol Nawrocki, Jarosław Kaczyński?".
Just after Nawrocki's message to Poles in the "Crop over i" in TVN24 was hosted by talker of the Sejm Włodzimierz Czarzasta. Monika Olejnik read Donald Tusk's commentary (including "The president lost his chance to act like a patriot. Shame!"), and suggested that Moscow might enjoy its decision to veto. The black man replied, "All those who want us badly are pleased with this decision.
