"Dismissed" Warsaw Mayor remains in office

Nevertheless, Gronkiewicz-Waltz who claims she did not have to submit the declaration at all declared, "I am still the Warsaw Mayor." Contrary to earlier declarations there will be no commissioner appointed to replace the Warsaw Mayor as Sasin has decided to wait for a court ruling to which Gronkiewicz-Waltz wants to appeal against his decision. Prime Minister Jarosław Kaczyński stated that the appointment of a commissioner and new elections in Warsaw right now could cause serious social conflicts and this is why he is also in favor of waiting for a court ruling.
