Mateusz Morawiecki calls for return to abortion compromise
Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has expressed support for returning to the previous abortion compromise, stating that the current political and geopolitical situation in Poland does not require ideological disputes. In a recent interview, Morawiecki noted that in 2020, he had advised against legal changes to abortion laws because he feared they would cause a significant drop in polling support.
Separately, Marcin Stępniewski, the chairman of the Law and Justice (PiS) councilors' club in Kielce, faced scrutiny after attending a social gathering hosted by Morawiecki in Warsaw. The event was organized by the Rozwój Plus association, an entity criticized by national PiS leadership. Stępniewski defended his attendance, stating he wished to maintain regional and national connections to build a broad right-wing coalition. Anna Krupka, the PiS regional leader, remarked that party members must be fully committed to the party's activities, noting that one cannot be 'halfway' in Law and Justice.
