Trzaskowski: EU funds should be used for the energy transition of Silesia

During the visit to Silesia, the Civic Coalition candidate for president Rafał Trzaskowski referred to the situation related to mining and energy transformation.

– See what happens with coal, how many millions of tons of coal are imported from outside Poland, and it was supposed to be completely different – said the candidate during the rally.

– For a real transformation of Silesia, one should use money from the European Union to move away from coal for years to take care of jobs and create new ones, to make Silesia flourish again, because without Silesia there would be no Poland – he emphasized.
