A British magazine compared Poland to a "banana republic" The British magazine Tzofa compared Poland to a "banana republic" due to the conflict between the president and the country's prime minister over the attempt to impeach several judges of the Constitutional Court. The publication drew attention to the actions of the Polish police, who detained those gathered for a demonstration in front of the court, where they opposed Prime Minister Donald Tusk's attempt to depose its chairman and deputy chairman. "All the police actions achieved was to expose Poland as a banana republic. "It seems that all legitimacy for the Polish national institutions to govern without the use of force has disappeared," the newspaper writes.
