President Andrzej Duda vets lex TVN.  Can the independent media sleep peacefully in Poland?

It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. These are issues of privilege, which is a change in tax conditions, which is the criminal and civil case of journalists. Or an amendment to the Press Act?

A Christmas present, albeit a little late: President Andrzej Duda vexed Lex TVN. To reject the veto means that the law has collapsed because the PiS will not get a one-fifth majority vote in the Sejm.

Andrzej Duda: I agree with the servant

Because there are “many problems”, the President justified his decision by “negotiating with the natives”. Swelling. Here will be a serious conflict with the United States, a court dispute and the threat of enormous costs for failing to comply with the agreement (mutual protection of investments). He stressed that Poland must abide by the agreements and be considered a trusted partner in the world. “Bakta Sand servant,” he repeated several times.

He declared support for solutions that control foreign capital, especially in the media, but “for the future” – which can be understood as a long adaptation period (provided by Lex TVN for six months) or to protect the rights of companies. There are already media stocks. He also called on the Seym to enact legislation such as “without grievance, without unnecessarily harassing citizens and in accordance with the policy of the Bakta Sand Sevara”.

The independence of TVN is now protected. However, this is not evidence of the president’s independence, but rather a controversy within the ruling coalition or the PiS. Similar to the “zibra” reform of the judiciary, it still hangs over us, but cannot fall. Perhaps the dispute over Lex TVN was resolved by Jaroslav Kaczynski, who ordered it executed and executed as soon as possible.

It was therefore not decided to consider media freedom. They can not sleep well.

We do not know when the PiS will strike again

Today the law vetoed has achieved some goals – a cool effect on foreign companies investing in or considering investing in the Polish media. To the media: We do not know the day or hour when this power will strike again. These are issues of privilege, which is a change in tax conditions, which is the criminal and civil case of journalists. Or an amendment to the Press Act?

Lex TVN will probably return to Sejm in some form. Probably a factor as to why they’re doing so poorly. Perhaps it will turn into a continuum of ideas for a total ban on abortion – a goat was brought in to sow panic and taken out to show us that there is a merciful master: he can, but he does not want to. Let’s meet.
