The anniversaries we are celebrating this year – twenty-five years of the Polish transformation, the fifteenth anniversary of our accession to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, and ten years of our membership in the European Union – give us an excellent opportunity for summing things up. In the opinion of the former Prime Minister, and present Member of the European Parliament, we have succeeded to change deeply both Poland and Europe. It is also true of the institutional sphere – nowadays both the institutions of the Polish state and those of the EU are marked with the way that our country has taken since 1989.
