WARSAW , Poland — A special commission tasked with investigating Russian and Belarus ian influence in Poland was beginning its work on Wednesday, Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced.
At a news conference in Warsaw, Tusk and other officials described the commission as a non-partisan body of experts whose aim is to protect national security. Its work begins at a time of security concerns across the region as Russia’s war against Ukraine is in its third year. Tusk issued an order in May to establish a commission to investigate Russian and Belarusian influence in the years 2004-2024.
Tomasz Siemoniak, who is the interior minister and the head of the secret services, said there are “no doubts” that the situation at the border is the work of Russia and Belarus, and that “explaining all the cases from the last 20 years where traces of Russian or Belarusian activity are visible is very important.”
The commission will include 12 members and be headed by the head of the Military Counterintelligence Service, Gen. Jarosław Stróżyk. Tusk noted that Stróżyk has served as a diplomat, military commander and deputy head of NATO intelligence, among other roles.
