– I have the impression that at the minute in the case of the Sikorski MFA and in the case of Tusk there is simply a somewhat offended pride.
After all, they did not gotta rise Romanowski's case to the level of something that hinders interstate relations. Send a diplomatic note that the ambassador is undesirable. After all, nothing results for the Polish State. That's making a large deal out of it.
Nota bene, I consider it a political mistake to even request arrest for Romanowski, due to the fact that this draws the attention of any of the global opinion on Poland as a state where politicians effort to lock themselves in prison without being sentenced. And this is not the first case, but the second after Wąsik and Kamiński, erstwhile MPs who were pardoned – in my opinion the president has the constitutional competence of pardon – and yet they were imprisoned.
Completely unnecessary, with absolutely no political goals, Donald Tusk's government, in my opinion, has put himself in a situation where the global forum gives the impression that this government is locking its opponents into prison. Not truly an impression: that's a fact. And Romanowski escaped.
I think it's incorrect that he ran away. He should be in court. Nota bene, he doesn't have much place to go to court due to the fact that his case inactive hasn't started. This is another negligence, rather clearly, I hope not only for me, in the operation of the judiciary. So I think the government is playing it wrong,
On the another hand, they are so self-confident and so drunk by any support that they receive at global level that they simply do not see it. They are about to collide with the fact that not only in Hungary will there be negative opinions about them, not only in Washington, where, of course, the Trump administration will be densely intertwined at the minute with people who have a critical approach to Donald Tusk's camp and what is now called in Poland, that we are “a field against populism” but besides in another European countries. In my opinion, many diplomats look closely at the hands of the current government and this is simply a origin in Poland underestimated.
The presumption that there will always be support from each side is incorrect, that in the most crucial EU countries at the minute we either have no government – France, Germany – or a government composed of politicians who were in very good relations with PiS – see Italy.
So the question is, who does the government of Donald Tusk truly want to defy in the European Union? I don't think they know the answer to that.
