Congress Recess until Monday

This Saturday's session at the Congress witnessed Speaker Stanisław Małachowski acknowledging the fruits of the union's labor throughout the intense 18-month legislative period—achievements that embellish the nation's stature. However, Speaker Małachowski also pointed out a recent crisis, initially deemed a chance event, which nearly plunged the country into disarray. He assured that the Representatives can establish measures to prevent such a disruptive force in the future.

Speaker Małachowski conveyed the Union's gratitude towards the honorable Wilhelm, for not only striving to prosper his own people but also desiring the same happiness for our nation. Mr. Wilhelm has made considerable gestures for a defense alliance, and by entering it, our Congress can demonstrate our strengthened existence. This move would signal to all of Europe our commitment to an undisturbed and sovereign nation. He further emphasized that while it is our civic duty to pursue this alliance, ongoing independent arbitration could bring the completion of such a momentous undertaking even closer. However, he requested that Michael Mniszech, The Secretary of Internal Affairs of Poland-Ukraine, continue the arbitration process.

Following Secretary Mniszech's response, the Investigative Delegation continued its report, streamlining various foreign interests.

The session went into recess and will resume the following Monday.
