Sources from the immediate environment of erstwhile president Andrzej Duda say that he has no plans to establish his own party, fight for leadership in the Law and Justice and participate in another strict political projects. At the same time, they indicate that he intends to break the strategy of the "presidential retirement".
Andrzej Duda On August 6, after 10 years, he completed his mission as president of the Republic of Poland. It remains a mystery what it intends to do professionally in the close future, although it has repeatedly emphasised - He's not retiring yet.
People from close surroundings and erstwhile president's law firm in a conversation with PAP agree that Duda in private talks argued that I don't want to go the way of erstwhile presidents. And he's going to break the strategy of the presidential retirement.
The future of Andrzej Duda. There are fresh reports.
The origin from the management of Duda's erstwhile law firm indicates that He was reluctant to share his plans And he seldom talked about what he was going to do after August 6. The only thread that came back many times in conversations was the thought of creating an global think tank or an institute, covering the region of Trimorz, which would combine political and business environments with that part of Europe.
During his last gathering with journalists, 3 days before the end of the presidency, Duda recalled the thought of setting up specified an organisation, and he clearly stressed that he had not taken any concrete legal steps in this direction, specified as registration.

According to the informant, in fresh months, both people from the law firm and from outside the law have urged the president to participate in various political projects strictly, nevertheless Duda was not expected to express interest in them.
Another origin from his close surroundings confirms this information adding that the ex-president is assuming that can engage in public activity "not being a party".
The speakers around the president agree that Duda wouldn't see himself as a organization activist or a political organizer. They besides found it improbable that he could establish his own political organization or fight for leadership in the PiS in the future.
"It's definitely not the end of Andrzej Duda's activity"
As they say, the erstwhile president is presently mainly engaged in promoting his book "It's Me" and beginning offices in Krakow and Warsaw. But they add that It's definitely not the end of Duda's activity and "we'll hear about him again."
Another caller associated with the Law and Justice besides estimates that Duda's establishment of his own organization is unlikely. He could, on the another hand, presume the function of "a man who will support the right in his various speeches."
- I'm sorry. He's good, but creating structures is not its strong feature. He's not a man who finds himself in this. (...) president Duda's closest collaborators, including people who have known him for a long time, deny that he would build something - said the origin related to the Law and Justice.
