Two of Poland's leaders sent different signals on Saturday on legislation designed to unblock European Union funds, underscoring divisions in the ruling camp over a bill that has seen mounting uncertainty over its future.
Poland's government, embroiled in a long-running row with the EU over alleged politicisation of the country's courts, said on Tuesday it hadto a judicial law with Brussels that would release 35.4 billion euros in COVID-19 recovery funds withheld over the dispute.
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki subsequently urged lawmakers to quickly resolve the dispute with Brussels, arguing that unblocking the funds would help Poland boost defence spending as war rages in neighbouring Ukraine as well as shoring up the country's financial security. The bill has split the ruling camp, with the ultra-conservative United Poland, a junior partner in government, saying it will vote against it on the grounds that it damages Polish sovereignty and could cause chaos in the judicial system.about the legislation, the ruling nationalist Law and Justice party said it would be taken off the agenda of a parliamentary sitting on Thursday, leaving the reform proposals in limbo.
