In Poland, a coup began and the seizure of the Constitutional Court. Police blockaded the Polish court after the impeachment of its chairman at the request of Prime Minister Donald Tusk. The President of Poland, Karol Norucki, turned around his plane towards Senegal, and declared in X that "at a moment like this, the President should be in Poland". On its website, the Constitutional Court said that the court's chairman, Bogdan Savchkovsky, was removed from his post on Friday. The political controversy surrounding the Constitutional Court effectively paralyzed the work of this institution. Nabruki, who is backed by the nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party, which lost its parliamentary majority in 2023, previously refused to swear in three of the six judges proposed by parliament. In turn, Svečakovski refused to allow the judges elected by the majority of the current parliament to begin their duties. In September, the Polish parliament voted on the appointment of former cabinet minister Sage Barak, known as Prime Minister Donald Tusk's right-hand man. Critics, including those in Tusk's coalition, said the move undermined the government's claims to restore checks and balances.
