EU's concerns will wait as UCI and gov't hold talks

Before any answer came from the Polish authorities, the Italian investor requested a meeting with the government. "The Ministry wants to talk with Unicredito and we will together settle the right date. For sure it will not take place this week. If the Prime Minister will not be able to participate in the talks, then the Ministry will be represented by deputy Minister Paweł Szałamacha," said Treasury Ministry spokeswoman, Barbara Kasprzycka. Prime Minister Kazimierz Marcinkiewicz, who is also fulfilling the role of Treasury Minister for the time being, announced that he will only give an official reply to the EC after he hears the stance of UniCredito. According to analysts, the meeting will not influence the decision of UniCredito to merge the Polish institutions. (Parkiet, p. 3) A.K.
