Rokita, Tokarczuk, and Plazynski sign AWS federation (FAWS) agreement

The leaders of Conservative-Peasants Party (SKL) and Polish Christian Democratic Party (PPChD), Jan Maria Rokita and Antoni Tokarczuk, respectively, have signed an agreement establishing Solidarity Election Action Federation (FAWS). The agreement was also signed by Sejm Speaker Maciej Plazynski, who heads the FAWS organizing committee. "The Federation may heal Action or divide it. We are prepared for both possibilities," said Rokita. AWS leader Marian Krzaklewski, whose resignation is sought by SKL, PPChD and Christian National Union (ZChN), said that the establishment of the federation is a good sign, as long as it remain in AWS, but he added it was tactless of SKL and PPChD to use the AWS abbreviation.(Rzeczpospolita, p.A2)
