“Poland will continue to back coal and invest in the coal-mining industry,” he assured during the International Fair of Mining, Power Industry and Metallurgy.
“Poland's economy will continue to be based on coal, but in a more modern way,” he affirmed, adding that Warsaw would reduce CO2 emissions, in line with EU targets, with the aid of new technology.
