Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has accused his country’s own president, Karol Nawrocki, and the right-wing opposition of being part of a “Putinist front” that serves Russia’s interests by harming relations with the European Union and Ukraine and undermining democratic institutions.
[...]
Tusk declared that Putin has a five-point plan for Poland that involves “weakening and breaking up the EU”; “dividing Poland from Ukraine”; “setting Poland against Germany”; preventing Poland from bolstering its military readiness; and “destroying the institutions of a democratic state”.
He argued that these aims are identical to those of Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of the national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS), Poland’s main opposition party. PiS also backed Nawrocki’s successful bid for the presidency last year and is closely aligned with him.
He is right in regard to nawrocki and pis. They are performatively against russia but want to build russia (or at least Budapest per kaczynski promise*) in Poland. They want country full of nationalism, xenophobia, homophobia and all around idiocy. That said tusk is a dude whose government suspended constitution so perhaps he shouldn't be so quick to cast blame on others.

The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
