Main political parties accuse each other of irresponsibility as President steps in

The situation has become so intense that President Lech Kaczyński decided to join in the talks. He invited the leaders of PO, Donald Tusk, Jan Rokita ad Grzegorz Schetyna to a meeting which was to take place last night. However, by the close of yesterday's issue of Rzeczpospolita, it was not known whether the meeting will in fact take place. "I do not know whether there is at least a trace of national thinking or only the will to come to power and enter the long awaited coalition with the Democratic Left Alliance (SLD)," announced Jarosław Kaczyński yesterday. He went on to say that if PO has at least some responsibility for the country they will back the early elections. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A4) A.K.
