Parliament Resumes Session, Poland Seeks Agricultural Imports Deal With Ukraine

POLAND
  • Parliament resumes its session this morning, with Speaker Szymon Holownia facing continued tensions around the main opposition party Law and Justice's (PiS) plan to bring its pardoned officials Mariusz Kaminski and Maciej Wasik into parliament's buildings. According to the law, convicted criminals cannot serve as lawmakers, but PiS insist that President Duda's legally controversial pre-emptive pardoning of Kaminski and Wasik in 2015 blocked their sentences from taking effect. As a reminder, both were lsubsequently sentenced and imprisoned, before the President pardoned them for the second time this week. Speaker Holownia insists that the two officials are no longer MPs and has instructed parliamentary guards not to let them into the Sejm buildings.
  • Prime Minister Donald Tusk suggested that Poland will seek to sign a bilateral deal with Ukraine to regulate the issue of agricultural imports which has weighed on the relations between the two countries over the past few months. Tusk said that a similar deal between Ukraine and Romania could serve as a model.
  • President Andrzej Duda will sign the 2024 budget bill "without unnecessary delay," according to deputy chief of his chancellery Piotr Cwik. The official brushed away earlier speculation that the President could try to dissolve parliament.
