– They still hope to maintain some remnants of impunity. Today, the guarantor of impunity for some PiS politicians, at least that's what they think of it, is the president (Andrzej) Duda. Because President Duda, after the change of government, became the last bastion defending this rotten PiS camp – he argued.
