00:00:03you don't have to be perfect to be a foster parent, find out more at
00:01:01PKOL, dismissed by the Minister of Justice, the rector of the Academy of Justice Michał
00:01:05Sopiński, in turn, has been trying to enter the university building for several
00:01:08days. Zuzanna Kuczyńska, who is also on
00:01:12site, will tell you about this situation. Welcome.
00:01:24Radosław Piesiewicz may be dismissed today from the position of president of the Polish
00:01:28Olympic Committee. At 13:00 in Warsaw,
00:01:32the PKOL board will meet, which may make such a decision
00:01:35based on the statute. Now, for more information, we turn
00:01:39to Marcin Czapski. Marcin, good morning, please
00:01:42tell me, is this dismissal a foregone conclusion?
00:01:46What can we say
00:01:47name, it's covered, but he has about it now?
00:01:49It seems that the dismissal is certain, but who will be the new president of
00:01:53PKO, that is still a big question
00:01:56mark, around which at least eight
00:01:59points revolve. These eight points are deputies, and this is where we again need
00:02:03to refer to the statute, because the PKOL statute allows for
00:02:07the dismissal of the president if he is unable to
00:02:10perform his function, in any way he cannot
00:02:13perform it, and in this case we are dealing with such a situation, because President
00:02:17Pisiewicz is under arrest
00:02:21and for 2.5 weeks he has not been able to
00:02:24perform his function, therefore he will probably be
00:02:27elected his successor today or... and
00:02:31will perform this function until April, i.e. until the end of his term, well
00:02:34now the question here is who can become this
00:02:37successor, there are eight
00:02:40deputies of the President of PKOL, I say eight, because there is
00:02:44one woman, Otylia Jędrzejczak, in this composition, in this composition
00:02:47there is also the person who currently performs this function,
00:02:50namely Mieczysław Nowicki, this is the man who
00:02:54was indicated by Piesiewicz and therefore there are also
00:02:57comments that perhaps...
00:03:00everything would be, well in accordance with the law and it will be, but so that there are no
00:03:04suspicions, maybe someone else, but we will not
00:03:08speculate who, but as I said, there are eight
00:03:11deputies, but Robert Korzeniowski also appears, who
00:03:15said that he is ready to perform this
00:03:18function, let's listen to him, today with this
00:03:21fall
00:03:26in perception of values.
00:03:32as an institution that arranges something, that sends someone somewhere,
00:03:36that causes some contract to be
00:03:39signed with someone, or some personal data to be, this is completely
00:03:43absurd, we definitely have to
00:03:46move away from that,
00:03:48well, precisely, all of us as fans, citizens, would not want
00:03:51sports to be entangled in such arrangements, today
00:03:55at 13:00 the board meeting, it will be a continuation
00:03:59of the presidium, of the government, which started on
00:04:01Tuesday. And it will also be a kind of
00:04:05test for the organization itself. Marcin Czapski is dealing with
00:04:08this topic. Thank you very much Marcin. Meanwhile,
00:04:11dismissed by the Minister of Justice, the rector of the Academy of Justice Michał
00:04:15Sopiński, has been consistently trying
00:04:17to enter the university building for several days. In previous days, MPs from Law
00:04:21and Justice also tried to conduct a parliamentary inspection in this place. Zuzanna
00:04:25Kuczyńska is following the situation on site. Zuzanna,
00:04:28good morning. Please tell me what is happening now in front of
00:04:31the building,
00:04:33just a moment ago there was another attempt by the former rector Michał
00:04:37Sopiński to enter the building of the Academy of Justice, another
00:04:40unsuccessful attempt, because there is police in front of the building
00:04:43and they prevent the rector, the former rector, from
00:04:47entering the building, he tried
00:04:50to enter through the main entrance, because then the officers told him that
00:04:54as an employee of the university he must enter through the back entrance, he was not
00:04:58allowed in there either as... a former employee of this
00:05:02Academy of Justice, he returned
00:05:05then to the main
00:05:09entrance and there he tried to file
00:05:12a complaint against the officers who were preventing him from
00:05:16entering the building, now MP Antoni Macierewicz
00:05:19from Law and Justice has also appeared on site, probably with the function of supporting
00:05:23the former rector in entering
00:05:27the reasons for the dismissal, which Waldemar
00:05:30Żurek had presented several times, he did
00:05:34not quite want to comment Michał Sopiński on
00:05:37these, on these reasons for the dismissal, these
00:05:40reasons are related to... such issues
00:05:43as serious irregularities in doctorates,
00:05:47demonstration of his political activity, and the third reason
00:05:51was also a threat to the curator application,
00:05:54these were the reasons Waldemar Żurek cited for the
00:05:58dismissal, as for the dismissal itself, Michał
00:06:01Sopiński still maintains that he has not
00:06:04received the letter dismissing him from the position of rector of the
00:06:08Academy of Justice, we also asked
00:06:12about the attempt to deliver this document to him in
00:06:15Karpacz, which the Deputy Minister of Justice
00:06:18Mariart said was successful, however,
00:06:21Michał Sopiński maintains that he was not
00:06:25at the Gołębiewski Hotel, where the attempt to deliver
00:06:28it took place, he was not registered there, so he is still
00:06:32waiting, waiting for this document, today in the morning he was also at the
00:06:36Ministry of Justice, waiting for Waldemar Żurek to personally
00:06:39receive this document, this did not happen, he appeared
00:06:43again here, he is still ready to perform his duties, and
00:06:47Waldemar Żurek maintains that the new rector
00:06:50is someone else, not Michał Sopiński.
00:06:54Zuzanna Kuczyńska is dealing with this topic, she is in front of the building
00:06:58of the Academy of Justice. Thank you very much, we will stick to
00:07:02this topic, because during these attempts
00:07:05of parliamentary interventions, MP Antoni Macierewicz
00:07:08from Law and Justice violated the inviolability of a police officer,
00:07:11he also threatened him with taking the matter to court,
00:07:14the situation occurred during an attempt by the politician to enter
00:07:18AWS, where, let's remember, for several days, as Zuzanna
00:07:21just said, there has been a power struggle at this
00:07:25university, to prevent the MP from entering, so
00:07:28please
00:07:33very much, you are laughing, what are you laughing at, police officers are blocking the way for the MP to
00:07:37the Sejm of the Republic of
00:07:38Poland.
00:07:56if you act like that, just like your colleague, I will have to take you to
00:07:59court, do you understand, because what
00:08:03you are doing is a crime, I have the right, according to
00:08:07the law, to enter
00:08:10as an MP, and you...
00:08:47Yes, but you know, I think to myself that I can imagine a situation where someone from among
00:08:50us, ordinary people, tries to harangue
00:08:54a police officer in this way, touching
00:08:56his uniform, when the police officer is on duty, we are talking about serious matters,
00:09:00actually, I had such a situation when I tried to join the discussion
00:09:04when there was a vehicle check, of the driver, of whom
00:09:07I was also a passenger, and I tried to harangue something, I'm not proud
00:09:11of it, but very quickly... the police officer brought me down with two
00:09:14or three sentences, there was no
00:09:16discussion,
00:09:19MP Macierewicz says at a certain point to the police officer
00:09:23that he will have to take him to court, he will have to
00:09:27sue him and that what the police officer is doing
00:09:30is a violation of the law, so if MP Macierewicz actually takes the matter
00:09:34to court, he will lose completely, because
00:09:37of course an MP is
00:09:41not an average person. And he is allowed more, but he is not allowed
00:09:44everything, I checked in the meantime, just in case
00:09:48to refresh my remembered
00:09:52knowledge, at the moment when there is a police
00:09:55operation in the building, there is some police security,
00:09:59an MP has no right to enter there, I can imagine a situation
00:10:02where, for example, a crime has been committed in some place,
00:10:06and the services, for example, are securing evidence, and
00:10:09what, can an MP just enter, I don't know, trample on it? There are
00:10:15such exceptions, what's more,
00:10:18when there are any services, an MP has an absolute obligation, just like
00:10:21any citizen, just like you during such an incident.
00:10:29I agree that it's very good that the police officer
00:10:32didn't get drawn into any verbal skirmishes, I'm not sure if
00:10:36the situation here is clear, because
00:10:39as for his insignia, but I'm not
00:10:43a specialist, well, I have the impression that MP
00:10:46Macierewicz is trying
00:10:49to look at the full name, that the patch is partially
00:10:53covered, I don't know if. the police officer shouldn't
00:10:56have said his name, or whether it shouldn't be
00:10:59obvious that his name is
00:11:02visible, during a traffic stop, when a police officer approaches us, he introduces
00:11:05himself first, right Bojtek, I just think that here we should rely
00:11:09on asking this question to specialists
00:11:12who know this law, we can only speculate, because everything is
00:11:15being recorded, perhaps also broadcast somewhere, well, we need to
00:11:19protect the image of this police officer, but in what way do we protect
00:11:23his identity. Right and the police officer also has
00:11:26a recording device on him and so it was
00:11:29visible, this can also
00:11:33be confronted, the testimony of MP Macierewicz before
00:11:36or during a possible court
00:11:39hearing with the facts, however, on the other
00:11:42hand, you know police officers perform public
00:11:45functions and they have this insignia, they have a name, they have a
00:11:49number, they also appear in such situations when, for example,
00:11:53here in a public place, well, it's also difficult to say here
00:11:57that it's a matter of protecting his image, because he is a public
00:12:01official, that's right, at the same time each of these
00:12:05police officers in prevention, I don't know if you noticed, this is already a technical
00:12:08matter, he doesn't have this
00:12:12a number on his back often, this is a number thanks to which one can
00:12:15identify this police officer in a situation when, when there is
00:12:19actually such a need, the number is also on the front, so if there is
00:12:23such a need, appropriate. based on appropriate
00:12:26regulations, it can be done, thanks to this number, this police officer
00:12:30is not anonymous, as it used to be in the old days, good during
00:12:33various protests,
00:12:37well, I just wanted to say one more thing about
00:12:40police officers who are subjected to very high pressure
00:12:44in such situations, well, yes, cameras, an MP, a public
00:12:47figure, perhaps this is the first meeting
00:12:49of an officer with a person whom
00:12:52we see from...
00:14:25and diplomats. Among the passengers was former British Prime Minister Boris
00:14:29Johnson, advisor to the German Chancellor. Every
00:14:32time we wonder if it's Russia or if
00:14:35Russia did something on purpose, let's answer:
00:14:39yes: Russia acts to
00:14:42force various changes on this
00:14:45geopolitical map through sabotage,
00:14:49subversion, or actions below the threshold
00:14:52of war, and we must simply counteract
00:15:25that. the border in an evident way, here there are no
00:15:27doubts about it, about
00:15:31Russia doing it
00:15:33intentionally. We live in a truly safe
00:15:37country today, and to your question,
00:15:40I will answer a bit philosophically, every morning we must realize
00:15:44that the Russians attacked Russia on February
00:15:4824, 2022,
00:15:51and since that day we have a country
00:15:54on our border that is waging a full-scale
00:15:57war, we are a frontline country, so
00:16:01whatever happens in our security
00:16:03space, it's not that it happened today
00:16:07without what happened before, we as
00:16:10a society must really look
00:16:12at the broader picture than just
00:16:16having a safe Poland today. And
00:16:19how should cooperation look, how can we prevent
00:16:23this type of action, that is, in short,
00:16:26protect ourselves from, for example, such a drone, if
00:16:30it flies into Poland, to shoot it down quickly, or simply
00:16:33to cooperate with Ukrainians.
00:16:37so as not to allow such situations, is it even
00:16:41possible in a situation where, as you said, there is simply a regular
00:16:44war there, and we are a country that is not at war,
00:16:48what are we doing, since the day
00:16:52of Russia's attack on Ukraine, we are supporting Ukraine, not only
00:16:55us as Poland, but the entire NATO and practically our entire Western
00:16:58civilization, so we are doing a lot, a lot of Polish
00:17:02equipment, including paying
00:17:05for Starlinks and all others...
00:17:11Russia, not wanting to lose this war, escalates
00:17:15it, please see the phases of this war, the phases of our
00:17:18aid, Russia went a step further, we went a step
00:17:22further, once no one even at the beginning of the war thought that today
00:17:26Russian pilots would be flying F16 planes,
00:17:29today they have them, so this is another step that
00:17:32I think we should take even more, to
00:17:36stop. this Russian escalation, how to
00:17:38do it? It's hard to say that we should start
00:17:42acting offensively towards Russia, although
00:17:46President Putin repeats that they are not fighting only with Ukraine,
00:17:50but fighting with the entire NATO. I would also like to draw your
00:17:53attention to one more thing, because of course I am listening to the entire debate,
00:17:57I am listening to experts, yyy generals
00:18:01already in reserve politicians of the opposition,
00:18:04it's very easy to have ideas right now. it's very
00:18:08easy to suggest them, it's much harder if you take
00:18:11responsibility, on your shoulders,
00:18:14really so physically the security of us citizens and
00:18:18all of Poland. I will only add that you probably
00:18:21meant Ukrainian pilots who are flying F16s
00:18:24today, yes exactly so,
00:18:27I wanted to ask you about one more specific
00:18:31thing, I think in this situation, because
00:18:34yesterday we talked about the attack on a train, among other things.
00:18:39thanks to, maybe not thanks to, because that's the wrong term, but
00:18:43in connection with such situations, we realize how serious the situation
00:18:46is and that after all these delegations that travel
00:18:50between, which arrive in Kyiv,
00:18:53diplomats, heads of government, travel by train, and
00:18:56yesterday, if one takes into account
00:19:00these suggestions, it could indeed have been an attack
00:19:03on such a train with diplomats, can such a means of
00:19:07transport be effectively secured at all, maybe this is a rhetorical
00:19:11question, mediately I will say, as I
00:19:14watch it, because if you traced back
00:19:18your information, there were days when you didn't
00:19:21report on the war in Ukraine, that something somewhere was not
00:19:25right, I don't want to use the word spectacular, but something very
00:19:28dangerous happened, to report on it,
00:19:32the full-scale war in Ukraine
00:19:34continues daily, there is a front line, there every day. one and the other
00:19:38side, attacks, defends, people die
00:19:41there every day, what happened now here, is
00:19:45not something that hasn't happened before in Ukraine, because
00:19:48Russians attacked trains that were standing at
00:19:52petrol stations, I mean at railway stations, they attacked
00:19:55trains that were filled with Ukrainians,
00:19:59meaning people who were evacuating, this
00:20:02is rather a way of showing in my
00:20:05perception to Europe. that you are
00:20:08not safe coming to Ukraine, today's technology
00:20:11really allows Russians to strike quite precisely, and
00:20:15if they wanted to hit one of the carriages, they would hit it, it
00:20:19is simply showing all of us that you should not come to
00:20:22Ukraine, because we are able to reach you. Thank
00:20:26you very much for this brief commentary, Paweł Nabal Mateńczuk, veteran of the
00:20:29Grom Special Unit, thank you very much, good
00:20:31day.
00:20:35Police officers arrested a Slovak, wanted for attempted
00:20:38contract murder, the 56-year-old man was
00:20:42wanted on an Interpol red notice for attempted
00:20:45commission of a crime in Ukraine. According to
00:20:49findings. the officers, the Slovak fired several shots at
00:20:52the selected man, but he survived. It turned out that
00:20:56the wanted man is already known to police officers from Katowice. In
00:20:592024, he was arrested for fraud and participation in
00:21:02an organized crime group that counterfeited and put
00:21:06counterfeit money into circulation. Currently, actions are being taken against the
00:21:0956-year-old in connection with the Interpol red notice and
00:21:13the procedure for his extradition to the
00:21:15Ukrainian side.
00:21:20And now we change the subject to an unusual guest in the urban jungle, namely
00:21:24a moose, which, attention, paralyzed train traffic in
00:21:28Warsaw in the evening, the animal was walking, this sounds quite
00:21:31unbelievable, but that's exactly what happened, between Warsaw Zachodnia station
00:21:34and Warsaw Central.
00:21:38The visit of Emil, as the moose is called, caused delays in
00:21:42the fast urban railway and Masovian railways. Police officers,
00:21:45medical rescuers, firefighters, and
00:21:48city forest employees were involved in catching the animal. The moose was
00:21:52temporarily sedated at the platform at Warsaw Central station, then a group
00:21:56of officers handed it over to city forest employees,
00:21:59from there, no longer by train, but by car, it returned to its
00:22:03environment.
00:22:09Lung cancer can develop for a long time almost asymptomatically,
00:22:12which is why in many patients it is only detected after
00:22:16metastases appear. From October 1, a new program
00:22:19of examinations funded by the NFZ will be launched,
00:22:23which is intended to help detect Małgorzata Lis
00:22:26Skupińska is dealing with this topic. Małgosiu, good morning, please tell me what examinations will be available and
00:22:30if a referral
00:22:31will be needed.
00:22:35Good morning, first I will say that we are indeed dealing with
00:22:38a dangerous opponent, over 22 people die
00:22:42every year precisely from malignant lung
00:22:45cancer, so something needs to be
00:22:48done about it. Also, over 32,000
00:22:51people will learn about this disease in the
00:22:54coming years, and as
00:22:58we heard, this is a disease that develops for a very long time
00:23:01asymptomatically or with few symptoms,
00:23:04unfortunately about 50% of patients, when
00:23:08it is detected, it is at such a stage where it has metastasized and
00:23:11is practically impossible to cure, and only about
00:23:1520% of patients learn about this disease at such
00:23:18a stage when it is possible to cure it, which is why
00:23:22the examination is so important, first patients usually go for
00:23:26an X-ray when they have such symptoms as hemoptysis,
00:23:29weight loss or such general
00:23:32weakness, but an important examination is precisely this
00:23:35low-dose computed tomography, which will now
00:23:39be introduced, because it can help detect
00:23:42these nodules in the lungs, it will
00:23:45be an examination that can be obtained
00:23:49without a referral, of course not for everyone, there are
00:23:53certain, there are certain people,
00:23:56i.e. for example above 55 years of age, those
00:23:59who smoked for a very long time, but also above
00:24:0350 years of age, who not only smoked for a long time, but also worked
00:24:07in conditions where their lungs were exposed, i.e. for
00:24:10example due to asbestos, as I said, this program
00:24:13is to start on October 1, I would also
00:24:16add that here in our region at least
00:24:20one person learns every day that they have lung
00:24:24cancer.
00:24:26Małgorzata Lis Skupińska, Maługusiu, thank you very much for
00:24:29the details.
00:24:31Now one more piece of information: for years it was feared
00:24:35that she would never sing live again, but Celine Dion
00:24:38returned, she appeared on the Parisian stage before
00:24:41an audience after several years of fighting a rare disease, stiff-person
00:24:45syndrome. The Canadian star did not
00:24:48hide her tears during the concert. She addressed moving words to her fans: I promised
00:24:52I would be back and here I am, and Anna
00:24:55Kowalska will tell you about this great
00:24:56comeback from Paris.
00:25:02It was a great comeback for a great star. Celine Dion
00:25:06returned to the stage after a six-year break,
00:25:09singing her greatest hits, often with tears in her
00:25:13eyes. I'm glad to be here with you, thank you for
00:25:17being here, I love you.
00:25:29At first I cried a lot, because her songs hit straight to the heart, it was a gift from her son for her 80th birthday
00:25:32and from all over the world, including from Poland, goosebumps and my stomach
00:25:35hurt just from nerves, from emotions,
00:25:39we are very happy. Saturday's concert was the first of
00:25:43a series of 16 performances by Celine Dion this autumn
00:25:46in Paris. The interest was so great that the vocalist will perform
00:25:5010 more times in May, a total of 850,000
00:25:53seats, but as many as 9 million loyal fans signed up on the website,
00:25:57some came to Paris without a ticket
00:26:01to see their...
00:26:03This was a photo in June 2017,
00:26:06we bought a birthday ticket and went with the whole family, it was
00:26:10at the London Arena and we waited for hours in front of her
00:26:14hotel, we spent 5 hours here, we stood patiently,
00:26:17our daughter is also named Celine, of course after Celine Dion, I plan that maybe October
00:26:2117 will work out, because we are planning a trip, the capital of France will
00:26:24earn almost a billion euros from the star's concerts.
00:26:28Paris is full of new and very expensive souvenirs, this T-shirt
00:26:31costs over 100 €, but just
00:26:35like tickets, everything with the Celine logo sells like
00:26:38hotcakes, I bought a scarf for my dog, who like
00:26:42me listens to Celine Dion every day and tomorrow I'm going to
00:26:45the concert, the world has been gripped by a true Celine Mania, because her return
00:26:49to the stage was a surprise. 4 years ago she announced
00:26:53that she was suffering from a serious neurological disease that causes
00:26:56progressive stiffness and muscle spasms, since then she has
00:27:00performed only once. We said
00:27:02Celine was suffering, then suddenly you stood up.
