There is an ongoing attack on the rule of law in Poland, but the European Commission does not seem to be concerned about it, writes MEP Nicolas Bay.
Nicolas Bay, the French MEP from the European Conservatives and Reformists Group (ECR), has lambasted the left-liberal government led by Donald Tusk in Poland, saying it has engaged in an unprecedented assault on the rule of law.
“The situation in Poland is serious. The government of Donald Tusk, a friend of Macron and von der Leyen, is persecuting judges, the media and conservative politicians,” wrote French MEP Nicolas Bay on social media. The politician notes that “this is an important attack on the rule of law, but the Brussels Commission does not seem to be concerned about it.”
The French MEP points out that Law and Justice (PiS) won the parliamentary elections, but the previous opposition formed a coalition and that is why the government in Poland changed. He adds that the European Commission criticized the Polish government when the conservatives (PiS) were in power, “constantly accusing them of undermining the rule of law.”
