Presidential aide Siwiec represents Kwasniewski after resigning 6 weeks ago

Presidential aide Marek Siwiec participated in Saturday's Independence Day celebrations as an official representative of the Head of State, although he resigned from the post six weeks ago during the Presidential election campaign. Marian Krzaklewski's Election team late in the campaign showed footage of Siwiec allegedly parodying the Pope. Soon afterwards, on September 23, he resigned. However, President Kwasniewski said at the time that he would consider whether to accept the resignation, since there was no rush. Now it appears as though he still has not investigated the matter. "If the President makes a decision on this matter, we shall be sureto let you know," presidential aide Teresa Grabczynska told the daily Zycie. (Zycie, p.1)
