PSL restarts negotiations with PiS to form majority

PiS is capable of offering the post of deputy Prime Minister and two Ministries, which would be totally controlled by PSL. The two Ministries would have to be chosen from the Ministry of Economy, Environment or Agriculture. "We want to know next week whether there is a majority coalition," said the head of the PiS Parliamentary Club, Marek Kuchciński. Self-Defense has reacted nervously to the news, with Andrzej Lepper appealing to dismiss the government and turning to the President to participate in resolving the crisis. If PSL agrees to join PIS, the majority of 231 deputies will still be eight short. According to Rzeczpospolita, however, significant numbers of deputies who have fled Self-Defense would be glad to join the new coalition. (Rzeczpospolita, p. A4) A.K.
