President proposes parliamentary elections on October 13

President Andrzej Duda proposed to schedule parliamentary elections on October 13. "I think Poles want the period of political disputes, campaign fire, when politics is tougher, to end as soon as possible," Duda said when asked why he chose this date.

Earlier on Friday during an interview at Polsat News, the President announced that he had applied to the National Electoral Commission (PKW) for an opinion on the date of holding the next parliamentary elections. The President assured he will name the election date immediately after he receives a reply from PKW.
