Poland blasts EU 'interference' but rejects 'Polexit'
But stand-off with Brussels over judicial reforms continues
15 September, 13:11
(ANSA-AFP) - WARSAW, SEP 15 - Poland wants sovereignty and an
end to EU "interference" in its internal affairs but will not
leave the bloc, the head of the ruling right-wing populist party
said on Wednesday. "There will be no Polexit... We unequivocally
see Poland's future in the European Union," Jaroslaw Kaczynski,
head of the Law and Justice (PiS) party, told Polish news agency
PAP. The comments come after senior PiS officials hinted at the
possibility of leaving the EU amid an increasingly bitter
stand-off with Brussels over Poland's judicial reforms. In the
latest twist in the long-running dispute, the European
Commission has asked the EU's top court to impose daily fines on
Poland until it suspends the controversial reforms. (ANSA-AFP).
