Presidential candidate Janusz Korwin-Mikke [leader of right-wing Union of Real Politics - UPR] proposes in his election platform that Poland should join the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), instead of EU.

"The EU is an economic disaster, and NAFTA is flourishing economically," he said at a press conference in Warsaw on Sunday [30th July].
In opinion of Mikke, who sees himself as the only representative of the "Right" in the presidential elections, the EU is a "Union of European Socialist Republics". In his opinion, this is because social democracy rules in it.
Mikke's election staff handed journalists a statement, which said that "Demoskop [polling organization] is misleading public opinion when it says that 90 per cent of UPR supporters are in favor of Poland joining the EU".
