President Komorowski names supreme military commander

President Bronisław Komorowski nominated lieutenant general Marek Tomczycki as candidate for the post of the supreme military commander in case of war. The President said that such a nomination was necessary due to "a need of defending Poland in these turbulent times." Further he stated that, he made the choice in order to ensure the utmost stability in the state's defensive system. On April 1, the President signed a bill in line with which, the supreme military commander will be responsible only for the operational forces engaged in defending the country during the wartime, not the entire Polish Army.
