Kwiatkowski withdraws from the race to be new TVP president

The majority of politicians who commented on this decision claim it was a good move. "I came to the conclusion that I should not run for the post again, as I divided the supervisory board. In my opinion, the selection of the president ought to be unanimous based on a consensus. The worst solution for TVP would be for its statutory bodies to be divided resulting from a fight for political influence." he said. "For the past ten months I had hoped that he would have taken this decision," said the Chairman of the Rywin Commission, Tomasz Nałęcz from the Labor Union. Zbigniew Ziobro from the Law and Justice party said that, "It was an absurd situation that Kwiatkowski had the impudence to put himself forward in the first place". (Rzeczpospolita, p. A1) A.Z.
