Poland’s president has blocked the promotions of 136 future officers in the country’s military counterintelligence and internal security agencies, escalating a dispute with the government over control of key security appointments. The move, which also includes a refusal to approve decorations and orders for intelligence officials, signals a deepening rift between President Karol Nawrocki and Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s administration. This situation underscores the ongoing tensions between the executive branch and the presidency regarding national security leadership.

The dispute first came to light in November when Prime Minister Tusk revealed that President Nawrocki had halted the promotions of the 136 officers. According to reports, lists of candidates for officer ranks had been awaiting the president’s approval since July for the Military Counterintelligence Service (40 names) and September for the Internal Security Agency (96 names).

In addition to blocking the promotions, President Nawrocki also refused to sign off on awards for intelligence personnel. “The ABW [Internal Security Agency] submitted 130 requests to President Karol Nawrocki regarding decorations. None of them received his approval. Truly, no one can understand this,” said Jacek Dobrzyński, a spokesperson for the minister coordinating special services, as reported by TVN24.

President Refuses to Award Decorations

Despite the presidential objections, the heads of the ABW and the SKW [Military Counterintelligence Service] have authorized financial bonuses for the affected personnel, equivalent to those received by officers, effective December 1. Minister Coordinator of Special Services Tomasz Siemoniak announced the decision on X, stating, “Service to the Republic of Poland in times of threat and subversion deserves the highest respect!”

Sources indicate the conflict over the promotions stems from growing influence of individuals linked to Antoni Macierewicz within the National Security Bureau. Reports suggest that these connections are at the heart of the dispute.

According to TVN24, the president’s decision extended beyond simply blocking the promotions.
