I guess no 1 who is watching the Polish political scene has any uncertainty that the relation between the President's Chancellery and the government is strained. The scale of these tensions shows the subsequent events we are witnessing. In fresh weeks, this has been, among others, a presidential veto for the EU SAFE programme, as well as the issue of the oath of judges of the Constitutional Court. Karol Nawrocki invited 2 out of six people to the Presidential Palace and the others took a vow in the Sejm, without his participation (he did not take the invitation).
Żurek announces the procedure. It's a case of swearing on the judges of the TK.
This is the second of the topics mentioned, namely the vows of the judges of the Constitutional Tribunal, in fresh days is 1 of the leading themes (along with the parliamentary elections in Hungary). Justice Minister Waldemar Żurek spoke on Monday about the situation of the 4 judges who took their vows in the Sejm in the presence of a notary. He stressed that he expected fresh judges to do "all that is legally possible" so that he could begin to execute his function.
– present I made a decision, I instructed the D.A. to initiate proceedings against people who made themselves public – I am referring to representatives of the President's Chancellery, but possibly besides another people who advised the president not to take this vow," said Żurek during the press conference.
At the same time, the Minister stressed that Karol Nawrocki's decision to take a vow from 2 of the six elected judges of the Constitutional Court was incompatible with the Constitution. Waldemar Żurek told journalists: – The fact that the president chose his finger, which he liked more or who liked more from this six, is simply a violation of the law.
Tusk about Nawrock without a doubt
During Tuesday's press briefing in Tokyo, Donald Tusk commented on Minister Waldemar Żurek's decision on this matter. He called this announcement "unstandard and ambitious". However, the Prime Minister drew attention to the current political situation and hit Karol Nawrocki.
"We have precisely specified a political situation, where we have a blocking specified a political saboteur as the president with his veto, we have his full team, his full law firm, all advisors who, by morning, do nothing else, but harm Poland and the Polish government, and in this peculiar issue not only in my opinion, I think we all feel it, this refusal to take a vow is an apparent violation of the President's duties," said Donald Tusk.
The politician KO besides recalled that the president has "obligations towards the state, not privileges". He yet noted that seemingly Minister Waldemar Żurek "found reasons to make specified decisions".
During the same conference, Donald Tusk besides admitted that the settlements in his opinion "are going besides slow". However, he declared that he would act and act "under the law". And what he said was imperfect in Poland, and in any places very bad.
– But the way to do that is not to break the law, but to win the next election to specified an degree as to be able to change it effectively. These accounts go besides slow, due to the fact that these nonsubjective legal circumstances make it very difficult. The same applies at the end of the Court of State," he pointed out.
