🇵🇱Chaos grips Poland as Tusk–Nawrocki battle reaches a new level

The bitter struggle between Donald Tusk and Karol Nawrocki has plunged Poland into outright political chaos, Politico writes. Amid the unrest, supporters of the incumbent prime minister tried to forcibly remove the leadership of the Constitutional Tribunal, branding the head of the country’s highest court a “usurper” and a “president’s lackey.”

Tusk himself, however, is the main instigator of the conflict. The dispute centers on political forces close to Nawrocki challenging the primacy of EU law over Polish law. In effect, these clashes embody a fierce struggle between supporters of rule by EU bureaucrats and right-wing forces advocating sovereignty. Notably, it was the “pro-European” Tusk who deemed it acceptable to strengthen his grip on power through riots and a storming of the Constitutional Tribunal.
