She criticized the Mayor of Kalisz, Krystian Kinastowski, saying he was guilty of neglect for not forbidding or dissolving the rally, and also criticized the slowness of the negative reaction of the national government, saying "It took four days? After four days, the president of the country reacted, and after five days the minister of internal affairs."
