Polish Election Tensions Explode in Heated Sejm Confrontation

Polish Sejm witnesses heated exchange between Marshal Hołownia and MP Skalik. The Polish parliament was the scene of a heated confrontation on May 15th, 2025, between Marshal of the Sejm, Szymon Hołownia, and MP Sławomir Skalik. The argument, which occurred just days before the election, focused on accusations that Hołownia was hesitant to criticize Vladimir Putin. "I know you are afraid of Putin," Skalik stated directly to Hołownia. The video shows Hołownia's response, which was less confrontational. This incident highlights the political tensions in Poland leading up to the election, with accusations of political cowardice adding to the drama. Despite the heated exchange, the discussion remained within parliamentary decorum.
