In Poland, the chairman of the Constitutional Court was dismissed. The building was sealed off by the police. Prime Minister Donald Tusk, referring to the announcement of the dismissal of the chairman of the court, Bogdan Sonchakovski, said that "restoring the law is a process that requires decisive action." Sonchakovski's suspended deputy and the opposition representatives, in turn, called what was happening a "coup". The conflict surrounding the Constitutional Court between the Tusk government and the opposition party Law and Justice, which was in power until 2023, has been going on for several months. It started when President Carol Noruki (he relies on the support of Law and Justice) refused to take the oath of office from three new judges elected by the new parliament.
