Olszewski remains a controversial figure within Polish politics . Members of the right-wing , particularly Law and Justice leader Jarosław Kaczyński , have praised the former premier for his anti-communist stances and legal principles . On the twentieth anniversary of the Olszewski government 's vote of no confidence in 2012 , Kaczyński praised Olszewski for attempting to stop the rapid privatizations of the early 1990s , and having helped steer Poland towards its eventual integration into NATO . Former Interior Minister Antoni Macierewicz also affirmed his personal belief in 2012 that had the Olszewski government not fallen , " the Smolensk disaster would never have transpired "
