The Office of the President of Poland did not prepare any amendments to the bill regulating the accounting methods for funds from the EU's SAFE program aimed at developing the defense industry, despite previous announcements by President Karol Nawrocki. The bill is set for a vote in the Senate on February 19. On February 15, President Nawrocki had indicated during a public statement that amendments would be proposed due to uncertainties surrounding the legislation's provisions, highlighting a potential gap between promises and actions.

The spokesperson for the Polish President's Office, Michał Leśkiewicz, had mentioned earlier on February 12 that the Office was in contact with the Ministry of National Defense (MON) and promised that specific changes would be proposed. However, as the Senate prepares for the upcoming vote, the absence of these amendments raises questions about the alignment of the legislative process with the President's previously stated concerns over the bill's content. Insiders suggested that ministers Zbigniew Bogucki and Sławomir Cenckiewicz were tasked with working on the proposed changes, highlighting the expectation that the amendments would provide more clarity and assurance regarding the use of EU funds.

The implications of failing to amend the bill before its vote could affect not only the President's credibility but also the broader framework surrounding the defense industry in Poland, which is currently under scrutiny regarding funding and operational benefits from such programs. As the Senate session approaches, stakeholders await further developments on this critical piece of legislation, with potential impacts on military readiness and defense policy in the context of European cooperation on security matters.
