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.
Published:
2 August 2000 y., Wednesday
"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".
