That could be the next big thing in Europe: the Central Communication Port (CPK) 40 km southwest of Warsaw - a $9BN Mega Airport - Solidarity Transport Hub. "But the project was a project of the previous government and has therefore fallen into disrepute: it is possible that it will be made smaller. The example in Berlin shows that the downgrading was a mistake - but to the delight of the Frankfurt and Munich airports, which are now obviously putting pressure on again - this time on Poland. We would also support the project in the originally planned size - both appropriate for Poland's location and a European signal of respect for the economic development of Eastern Europe, which is now the engine of Europe."
