PLD expects SLD to offer agriculture and environment posts

Peasant Democratic Party (PLD) leader Roman Jagielinski stated that he expects the Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) to offer his party positions formerly occupied by the Polish Peasants' Party (PSL) in the agriculture ministry and environment ministry. Jagielinski added that the SLD has not made an official invitation to his party. While Jagielinski confirmed he does not see any alternative to the SLD/UP government, his expectations look unreasonable given that Miller has already made this appointments - Tanski as Agricultural Minister looks unlikely to change - and it would grant favors to PLD over other (and potentially bigger) parties the government is seeking support from. Miller earlier said he would not rule out the SLD securing a majority in the Sejm this week. (Reuters) J.K.
