Z portalu Norway Today:
The controversy surrounding Poland’s constitutional court was discussed at the meeting between the country’s president Andrzej Duda and Solberg in Oslo on Monday.
– This was one of the topics that we discussed, the Prime Minister confirmed at a press conference after the meeting.
After the new Polish government came to power last year, legal amendments that makes it harder for the court to stop the new laws that conflict with the Constitution have been passed.
The changes have sparked strong reactions both inside and outside of Poland. Democracy and the rule of law in the country is threatened, the Venice Commission, a body under the Council of Europe, thinks.
– We view statements like those of the Venice Commission relating to the changes made with great concern, Solberg said at the press conference.
EU calls for Polish retreat
President Duda said he hopes the EU can contribute to a solution to court controversy and the conflict this has caused in the Polish parliament.
The European Commission has previously demanded that the new laws relating to the Constitutional Court, had to be lifted by Monday. But this has been rejected by Poland’s Prime Minister Beata Szydlo from the national conservative ruling party PiS. Duda also belonged to PIS until he won the presidential election last year.
To tylko promille ;)
Gratulacje :)
