Nawrocki: Farmers are the guarantee of Poland's food security

In his speech at Jasna Góra, Karol Nawrocki emphasized that the countryside is an important element of civil society.

Farmers - as the president said - by providing high-quality food are a guarantee of Poland's security. Food security, without which there is no sovereignty. Because every country, to be safe, must provide healthy, safe food to all its citizens, he said.

The president's legislative initiatives regarding villages and farmers

Karol Nawrocki also recalled that he submitted a legislative initiative "to ban the sale of Polish land and extend this ban for 10 years."

This initiative passed the Polish Parliament, although unfortunately it was cut short and neutered also by those who should take care of the Polish countryside (...) As I promised you during the election campaign, I demanded Polish land and this act, although imperfect, is here - he said.

He also pointed to the legislative initiative to protect the production function of rural areas.

A Polish farmer will not make excuses for running his own business and agricultural activity (...) I believe that this legislative initiative will be adopted in the Polish Parliament. Coming soon, he added.

"I became president too late"

The president recalled that he also started fighting for the EU agreement with the Mercosur countries, although - as he admitted - he failed to block it.
