European commission’s latest move in long-running dispute draws defiant response from Warsaw
The European commission has said it is taking Poland to the bloc’s highest court over a reform it alleges undermines judges’ independence and prevents them applying EU law, drawing an instant and defiant response from Warsaw.
In the latest salvo in a longstanding dispute over respect for the rule of law, Brussels said on Wednesday that it was also asking the European court of justice (ECJ) to make an interim order suspending the Poland’s 2019 law until its final judgment is delivered.
