🇵🇱 Riot police are still outside Poland's Constitutional Court this morning, after a night that ended without a deal

President Karol Nawrocki spent about four hours inside the court overnight, from roughly 1 to 5 AM. At dawn his chief of staff read out his statement to protesters outside:

"Tonight there was a violation of the constitutional order of the Republic of Poland and a forcible takeover of a constitutional organ of the state."

Nawrocki has called on police to leave the court grounds and says he got the court's Vice-President Bartłomiej Sochański back into the building. He is convening emergency talks with the parliamentary parties today, citing a threat to internal security.

Tusk's government isn't backing down. Justice Minister Waldemar Żurek says overnight talks reached "no compromise" and wants prosecutors to look into the president's conduct inside the court. Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński thanked the police for staying.

Foreign Minister Sikorski: "The democratically elected government will continue to stand guard over the Constitution."

Tusk's judges have called a General Assembly for Tuesday.
