Marek Sawicki back as agriculture minister
It has been officially confirmed that Polish People's Party politician Marek Sawicki will return to the post of agriculture minister, which he left in July 2012. He will replace Stanisław Kalemba, who filed his resignation last Thursday.
Prime Minister Donald Tusk has already asked President Bronisław Komorowski to dismiss Kalemba and appoint Sawicki. The official appointment is scheduled for Monday afternoon.
Kalemba was pressured to resign after he failed to tackle the crisis related to the discovery of African swine fever cases among wild boar in eastern Poland, which resulted in a sharp decline of pork prices.
