On March 12, President Karol Nawrocki delivered a national address announcing the veto of the SAFE legislation. A day later, Prime Minister Donald Tusk appeared on the program 'Question of the Day' on TVP Info, where he utilized the opportunity to comment extensively on the president's decision, framing it as a potential precursor to a Polish exit from the European Union, or 'polexit'. Tusk's commentary emphasized the significant ramifications of the president's veto on the political landscape of Poland, particularly concerning the influence of right-wing politics.

During the TVP Info program, Tusk responded to questions about whether there should be concerns regarding the recent developments in Polish politics, especially those stemming from the actions of the ruling party, Law and Justice (PiS). He pointedly indicated that Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of PiS, was instrumental in guiding the president's decision-making process regarding the veto. Tusk characterized Kaczyński's approach as one that has driven an anti-European campaign, placing the president in a vulnerable political position, which could lead to broader consequences for Poland's relationships with the European Union.

The day following Tusk's remarks, the government adopted a resolution in which it appeared to solidify its stance in the ongoing political tensions. This development underlined the seriousness of the political discourse in Poland, as the debate over Euro-skeptic policies grows more pronounced amidst an increasingly polarized political environment, calling into question the future direction of the country's governance and its place within the EU.
