Applebaum's husband and Schnepp's wife put on a licking show

Sikorski, enthused by Wysocka-Schnepf's do-you-know-what, discovered: “We've reinvigorated democrats in Europe and the world.”

Again Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski is getting more and more boring. On the other hand, what does he have to say when the government he participates in repeatedly violates the law, and with the sly smile of some prominent figures. Sikorsky was very colorless in his interview with “Gazeta Wyborcza” (weekend of February 3-4, 2024), so Dorota Wysocka-Schnepf, host of the interview, decided to add some color to him.

The problem with Wysocka-Schnepf is that her husband, Ryszard Schnepf, has returned to work at the Foreign Ministry. And whatever the wife does, she is in an ambiguous situation when talking to her husband's superior. After all, she can tell the minister that her husband will receive “positive benefits” because of it (Boris Butka's note: this is not a linguistic error, but a claim by Lech Walasa). Or maybe he didn't discuss any uncomfortable topic, which is what happened. Therefore, there are contradictions here and the conversation with the head of the Ministry of External Affairs should be conducted by someone else. But who cares about grades there?

While the dialogue is extensive, there are few meaningful or funny quotes. It couldn't have been funny, because Sikorsky only knew barracks jokes. The significance of this conversation is that it was held and Sikorsky said “something.” “Something” is enough of a characteristic. For example, he said: “It seems that the pioneers were more concerned with election campaigns than with work.” It is not worth embarrassing yourself in Zobilin, for example, with the great work done by Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Arkadys Mularczyk in obtaining reparations from Germany. or the work size and position of another Deputy Minister – Szymon Szynkowski vel Sęk. Ministers could easily identify the difference between Sikorsky and Spinniew Rao by the fact that Sergey Lavrov was afraid of Rao, and Sikorsky invited him to lecture to Polish diplomats and treated him like a sage.

In one case, the gentleman from Sobelin was singled out: “I have the impression that the previous government (…) demonized the outsourcing system. Most of the Schengen countries use outsourcing. (…) Visas were traded, it was not that big. The reason is simple, Sikorsky He introduced the outsourcing system, which immediately began to create pathologies related to buying the best places in the queue to talk to the embassy. Buying from outsourcing companies. “In recent years, the criteria for selecting personnel in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have been significantly reduced, nepotism and cronyism have prevailed,” said Wysocka-Schnepp, when he attacked “like a forester against a pine tree.” , Sikorsky muttered, “We're restoring merit.” How could it be that a worthy man like Ryszard Schnepf had returned to ministry.

The current head of the Foreign Ministry complained that “the PiS government lowered the language proficiency criteria for recruitment to the diplomatic service.” So challenge Sikorsky. Let him name at least one “his” diplomat who, in terms of knowledge of languages ​​and their use, is at least a million light years closer to ambassadors Marek Makirowski (now Washington) or Jakub Kumoch (now Beijing). ), appointed under the previous Govt.

Ryszard Schnepf's wife had to throw the ball to Anne Applebaum's husband when it came to Germany (“Sometimes you suffocate”): “PiS destroyed relations with Germany probably in all European countries.” His wife's husband immediately revived: “He destroyed that defect.” He revealed a big secret: during secret meetings with Jaroslaw Kaczynski, Angela Merkel and Germany, “Poland wants to be included as a representative of our region in the close group governing the work of the European Union. And what happened? President Kaczynski rejected it. The economic situation where Poland is rising in the hierarchy of countries as a representative of its region. He didn't take advantage, and what was more important to him was the opportunity to attack the Germans and Tusk in the Polish right-wing media.

It is immediately apparent that Sobelin's brilliant diplomat understood nothing. Poland had the position of a leader in the region, for example, for the Three Seas Initiative – assessed from Berlin to Washington.. Even Berlin wanted to join the Three Seas Initiative (thanks to Poland, it got the status of a partner country). Warsaw did not want and could not be Germany's partner. After all, there would be no participation in running the EU, and Berlin wanted to enslave us by promising pears on the willow. It would end up deceiving real allies from the Three Seas and Visegrad Group in exchange for some kind of illusion, because they would think that Poland had behaved completely selfishly in allowing herself to be bought by the Germans.

Sikorsky's weakness in talks with the German authorities became apparent after he explained what would be a “creative solution to the issue of reparations.” [za ogromne straty poniesione podczas niemieckiej agresji i okupacji]. His wife's husband replied: “Let's wait for the German proposals.” So let's wait for the leftovers from your table.

Sometimes it was difficult to read Ryszard Schnepf's wife's trifling questions: “You are as well known as some other Polish politicians in the circles of American politicians, including Republicans.” He may be popular, but not necessarily admired – after the fights he organized for the Americans, he played the role of master of the world. Something “known” quickly turned out to be creepy. He's going to Washington on February 6-11, 2024, but Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is suddenly overwhelmed with urgent duties and has no time for the “celebrity”.

Only Ryszard Schnepf's wife has a story to tell about how “the Western world said goodbye to the anti-EU, anti-democratic PiS regime with relief and welcomed the new Polish government with open arms.” Sikorsky, emotional, doing such a thing, said, “We've really encouraged democrats in Europe and around the world that you can still win against populists – the media, state-owned enterprises, the abusers. The secret services and the prosecutor's office to politicize. “It really emboldened the democrats.” Maybe. Oppressed people in Germany, France, Spain, Canada or even in America. It turned out that even speaking among dark people can be fun. And with great pomp, like Szymon Hołownia's shows.
