Read the full assessment

The constitutional crisis in Poland has escalated following Prime Minister Tusk's firm rejection of President Nawrocki's ultimatum regarding the Constitutional Tribunal and the subsequent refusal of the Presidential Office to meet with Tusk. This conflict, centered on judicial independence and executive authority, is further complicated by Tusk's alleged moves towards censorship laws. The outcome remains uncertain as both sides assert constitutional legitimacy.
