There is significant tension within the Law and Justice camp ahead of the upcoming announcement of the candidate for head of government. Backchannel information suggests that Nowogrodzka will bet on a politician from a younger generation, who is to refresh the party's image and halt its declining poll trends. Although the official decision has not yet been made public, media outlets increasingly mention Lucjusz Nadbereżny, the mayor of Stalowa Wola, as the politician enjoying the greatest trust of the party's chairman. This event coincides with the activity of Prof. Sławomir Cenckiewicz, who announced that President Karol Nawrocki may soon receive a proposal to disclose the annex to the WSI report. A commentator and historian suggests that the technical readiness to publish this document will be achieved this spring, which would fulfill one of the key promises of conservative circles regarding settling accounts with the past. The Military Intelligence Services were dissolved in 2006, and their liquidation and the personnel verification process remain one of the most polarizing topics in the Polish debate on security and special services.On the international stage, attention is focused on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. In a series of statements, he categorically rejected Vladimir Putin's territorial demands, emphasizing that ceding Donbas would not end Russian imperial ambitions. Zelenskyy also noted his country's technical readiness for membership negotiations with the European Union, while pointing to the existence of political barriers within the community. „Я не віддам Донбас. Путін прийде за більшим.” (I will not give up Donbas. Putin will come for more.) — Volodymyr ZelenskyyIn the economic sphere, Ryanair remains the leader in news coverage, having announced a large-scale expansion plan in the Polish market. The carrier plans to launch new connections from Kraków, Modlin, and Warsaw's Chopin Airport. Despite forecasting record passenger traffic, company representatives warn of possible ticket price increases in the coming months.
