The president recalled the ambassador about three weeks after the station published an interview with the ambassador about the Polish-Czech dispute over the Turów lignite mine, the TVN 24 server recalls on Monday. The diplomat criticized the Polish parties in an interview.
Among other things, he said that the dispute between Prague and Warsaw over the Turów lignite mine “was a lack of empathy, a lack of understanding and a lack of willingness to engage in dialogue – especially on the Polish side”. At the same time, the diplomat confirmed that the dispute between Warsaw and Prague over Turów would be settled amicably.
Subsequently, some Polish politicians accused the ambassador of treason, and government spokesman Piotr Müller announced that Prime Minister Morawiecki had decided to start the ambassador’s appeal process. Müller said about the “extremely irresponsible statements about the Turów mine”.

Jasiński later told Onet that he did not regret his statement about the Czech-Polish dispute. “We have to solve the Turów case because it casts a shadow over our relations with the Czechs,” the diplomat said. Representatives of the Polish-Czechoslovak Solidarity movement then wrote a letter to Morawiecki, asking him not to dismiss Jasiński.
Jasiński only officially took over the office of Polish Ambassador in Prague last December. Previously, the chair had been vacant for about a year and a half, TVN 24 said. There has been no ambassador on the diplomatic mission in the Czech Republic since President Duda removed Barbara Ćwiora on charges of bullying and discriminating against his subordinates.
Diplomat, screenwriter and former Duke of Wrocław Jasiński served in the anti-communist opposition and established contacts with Charter 77 people during his studies at the University of Wrocław.
He was one of the co-founders of the Polish-Czechoslovak Solidarity, in which dissidents from both countries cooperated. At the beginning of the 1990s, he worked at the Polish embassy in the Czech Republic, and from 2001 to 2007 he headed the Polish Institute in Prague.
