Jacek Karnowski, erstwhile president of Sopot, MP of the PO, was appointed Secretary of State at the Ministry of Funds and Regional Policy. Although Karnowski is simply a character with a long career in local government, his nomination may have amazed any political observers, given his erstwhile engagement in local and national political disputes.
Karnowski, a PhD in economics from the University of Gdańsk and a postgraduate of the Faculty of Land Engineering at the Gdańsk University of Technology, was president of Sopot for many years, where he gained various management experience.
However, it is worth noting that his word of office was not free from controversy. Karnowski is besides a associate of the Parliament for the Civic Platform and is among the politicians who allegedly were to experience unauthorized monitoring utilizing Pegasus software, which aroused much controversy.
Jacek Karnowski in fresh position
Karnowski's fresh function in the Ministry of Funds and Regional Policy can be seen as a strategical but besides risky move. His experience in managing major urban and infrastructure projects may prove valuable, but he besides questions what his priorities will be in the context of extended regional projects and the distribution of EU funds, especially in the face of erstwhile accusations of political partyry.
Karnowski, being a longtime self-government and political activist, undoubtedly brings a wealth of experience to the ministry, although his political past may rise questions about neutrality and objectivity in deciding on a fresh position.
