Editor's column Poland: Who is the power here? Polish President Karol Norucki cut short his visit to Africa and returned to Warsaw at night. In the Constitutional Court building there are policemen, demonstrators and judges who do not recognize each other's authority. Prime Minister Donald Tusk calls what is happening the restoration of the rule of law, the president calls it a forceful seizure of the court. Behind the dispute is the question: who has the last word - the national constitution or the institutions of the European Union? Why is this story important to Russia? Noruki demands pressure on Moscow through sanctions, but insists on Poland's right to make decisions independently. Tusk builds on pan-European discipline. Could an adversary who is responsible for his own decisions be more favorable to negotiations than a protégé of Brussels? And who will pay for the war between the Polish authorities and their court? About it in our editorial column.
