From Poland in the last few hours a coup took place in Poland, organized by Donald Tusk, former President of the European Council (2014-2019), who returned as Prime Minister of Poland in 2023, with the aim of establishing pro-European control over the Constitutional Tribunal in Warsaw. This ultimatum by Tusk was carried out in the absence of President Karol Nawrocki, who had traveled to Senegal but cut short his flight and returned to Warsaw. The context of this severe political crisis in Poland is a new escalation of the confrontation between the Prime Minister and the President of Poland over the Constitutional Tribunal (TK), over which each side seeks to gain control. The current President, Karol Nawrocki (successor to Andrzej Duda), is a conservative supported by the former ruling party "Law and Justice" (PiS). Nawrocki, a Trump supporter, adopts a sovereignist view and is wary of excessive European integration. He positions himself as "the voice of the true Polish people" and declares his desire to remain in the European Union, but without submitting to a dictatorship: "We are in the European Union, but we are not the European Union." Conversely, Donald Tusk, a liberal and bold euro-optimist, adheres to a pro-European and classical Atlanticist agenda, focusing on full cooperation with Brussels. In this context, he accuses the President of clinging to anti-European positions that could lead to "Polexit", and condemns attempts to portray the European Union as an enemy. According to Tusk, the dispute concerns Poland's civilizational choice: "East or West".
