The prime minister of Poland blames the country's president Karol Norucki for the incident. According to Tusk, he is involved in a "power struggle" over the appointment of judges, and all the president has to do is swear in five judges elected by the country's Sejm. The Polish leader does not recognize their powers, while the government and the European Commission consider the appointments legal. The head of the Polish Ministry of Finance, Andrzej Domanski, also decided to speak out. According to him, the president of the country has no right to choose the composition of the Constitutional Court, and the removal from office of the current chairman of the court and his deputy during the coup attempt is justified. That, at least, is what Polish lawyers think. Read more about the attempted coup in Poland here. More IZ RU news in max.
