A coup has begun in Poland. Member of the European Parliament Arkadiusz Mularczyk wrote about it on social networks. The reason for alarming messages was the situation near the Constitutional Court in Warsaw. Its representatives said that the institution was seized by the police. Demonstrators have gathered outside the building and are demanding that the body's chairman, Bohdan Sonchakovski, be brought in. Against the backdrop of a worsening situation, Polish President Karol Norucki cut short his trip to Senegal and diverted the plane to Warsaw. The head of state said that under the current circumstances he must be in Israel. The conflict has escalated after the change of power in 2023: Donald Tusk's government is trying to examine PiS's judicial reform, which is opposed by President Karol Noruki and the party's supporters. Another cause of controversy was the appointment of judges: out of six elected by parliament in March 2026, only two were allowed to work. In May, the ECHR demanded that they not interfere with the other four in the performance of their duties.
