One of Prime Minister Donald Tusk's first decisions after returning to power in 2023 was to dismiss the members of the commission investigating Russian influence in Poland between 2007 and 2022. In doing so, the government effectively suppressed the commission's partial report, removing it from all state-owned online platforms.
Professor Sławomir Cenckiewicz, head of the National Security Bureau and co-author of the report, has decided to publish a partial report compiled two years ago from the commission's work investigating Russian influence in Poland between 2007 and 2022. The document is therefore returning to the public domain – everyone can once again access the findings of the aforementioned commission. (As of today, there is no English version of it.)
Why did Tusk and his government do everything to make this report disappear?
The report concludes with an unambiguous recommendation: the individuals named in the document "should not hold public positions related to the security of the Republic of Poland in the future."
And yet, Tusk became Prime Minister.
