The development of communal and district Poland and the levelling of development opportunities between regions - these are the government's priorities. Thanks, among other things, to the Government's Local Investment Fund, we can help local communities so that Poland develops evenly. This includes creating new jobs, building kindergartens, sports facilities, libraries, bypasses, water and sewage investments or children's playgrounds. This is possible, among other things, thanks to good government policy and the tightening of the tax system.

The government cares about the development of municipal and district Poland. We connect all the regions of our country through investments that are close to the people. In this way, we create new jobs, build nurseries, libraries, fire stations, roads, bypasses, pedestrian crossings or children's playgrounds. We also provide modern equipment for hospitals and modernise schools. This is possible, among other things, thanks to the money we have recovered from tax fraud.

We continue to support local Poland and its people. This time, local authorities across Poland will receive up to PLN 3.5 million for the renovation or reconstruction of historic buildings. Thanks to government support, historic buildings will regain their beauty. Renovation will help to restore their convenience - many of the monuments house schools, offices or community centres. The renovation will give them a new life, so that they can serve residents for many years to come. It is the repaired public finances that have made it possible to implement the Government Monuments Reconstruction Programme, which is already entering the implementation phase - we are providing over PLN 2.5 billion for more than 4,800 projects.

A meeting between Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and President Yoon Suk Yeol of the Republic of Korea was held at the Prime Minister's Office. The politicians devoted special attention to bilateral issues. Poland cooperates intensively with the Republic of Korea in the military, as well as modern infrastructure and energy. The head of the Polish government also addressed international issues and Polish-Korean cultural relations.

On the 80th anniversary of the Volhynian Massacre, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki participated in the commemoration of the National Day for the Remembrance of the Victims of Genocide perpetrated by Ukrainian nationalists against citizens of the Second Polish Republic. Volhynia is still an open wound in the history of our nations. To build a common future with Ukraine, we must put the painful past in order.

The free medicines programme is now expanded. People over 65 years old as well as children and young people up to the age of 18 will benefit from the new measure. People over 75 years old have already been taking advantage of free prescription drugs since 2016. Now, the programme will be available to a larger numer of Polish women and men - for a total of around 16 million people. This is another element of the government's social policy. The expansion of the programme would not have been possible without the a changes in public finances, thanks to which more money goes into the state budget.

To build a common future with Ukraine, we must deal with the painful past. Volhynia is an open wound in the history of our nations. On the occasion of the upcoming 80th anniversary of the Volhynian Massacre, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki paid tribute to the Poles murdered by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (the UPA). The head of the government visited two non-existent villages in Ukraine, Ostrówki and Puźniki, where the search for a mass grave is underway. As he pointed out, the Volhynian Massacre must be explained and written down to the very end.

At the invitation of Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, a meeting on European Union migration policy was held at the Chancellery of the Prime Minister. The politicians discussed issues related to the forced admission of illegal migrants. Poland's position is to uphold the 2018 European Council Conclusions, which stipulate the voluntary admission of people to the individual Member States. Polish men and women must feel safe in their homeland.

A meeting between Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni took place at the Royal Baths Park in Warsaw. The conversation focused on security in Europe. The issue of protecting the external borders of the European Union is a priority for Poland and Italy. The heads of government also discussed economic cooperation between our countries and bilateral cooperation. Our countries share a common vision of the future of the European Union.

The government's First Home Programme has been launched! Anyone who wants or plans to buy their first property can benefit from a 2% Safe Mortgage and a Home Savings Account. The new measures are a real help and a breakthrough in thinking about state aid to meet the housing needs of Poles. The programme is aimed at people under the age of 45 who have not previously owned their own flat or house. The 2% Safe Mortgage allows them to take out a loan with a fixed interest rate of 2% over 10 years. The Home Savings Account is an opportunity to save with a bonus from the state. At the same time, many other government programmes tailored to different needs are already in place.
