Statement by Adam Glapiński

– I would also like to say that today. I change my rhetoric. Inflation is temporary, but over a 2-year period, and this is not known either, although this is how we see it now. Inflation is not temporary, inflation is burdensome. We will try to reduce it to minimum levels, but not at the expense of high unemployment. I don’t think anyone will force us to do this. Nobody is forcing us to substantially increase unemployment. This cannot be done in Poland. And we will be able to deal with inflation – said the President of the National Bank of Poland during the Wednesday award ceremony in the W. Grabski Competition.

The president added that he would do everything to ensure that the state of increased inflation lasts as short as possible and is as gentle as possible.
