Włodzimierz Cimoszewicz, former prime minister, former head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and currently an MEP, said in “Fakty po Faktach” on TVN24 that the important issue in the visa scandal is the issue of scale – how many visas were issued “in such an obviously corrupt scheme.” He said that “the very fact that something like this could happen” is a scandal. At the same time, he said that political responsibility should be borne by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zbigniew Rau, although – as he added – criminal liability could also be ruled out.
