Poland's constitutional crisis intensified after the European Commission called on President Karol Nawrocki to appoint judges. According to its statements, the Commission's position thus aligns more closely with the stance of the Polish government than with that of the president. HVG ↗
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Saturday accused representatives of the national-conservative opposition of trying to destroy democracy and the rule of law. He made the statement in a speech devoted to the ongoing constitutional crisis in the country. novinky.cz ↗
The dispute between the government and the president is linked to the issue of judicial appointments. The European Commission called on Nawrocki to appoint the judges, thereby openly positioning itself closer to the position of the Polish government. The president's stance and his decision-making have become part of a broader conflict over the functioning of democratic institutions and the rule of law. irozhlas.cz ↗
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán also joined the public debate. His statements came in the same context as the European Commission's position and the Polish government's response. However, further details about his stance are not specified.
Poland's political crisis thus continues to encompass the dispute between the president and the government, as well as differing views on the role of the courts and adherence to the principles of the rule of law. Further developments will depend mainly on the next steps taken by President Karol Nawrocki and the response of Donald Tusk's government.
