The European Commission announced in January 2016 an inquiry into whether recent Polish reforms affecting the country’s constitutional tribunal and media are consistent with the rule of law. Krzysztof Śliwiński argues that the review risks fuelling Euroscepticism in the country and feeds into wider debates on the resentment felt by some sections of European societies toward Brussels. The Committee for the Defence of Democracy (KOD) continued organising protests in various Polish cities on the 23 January 2016. On this occasion the protests were focused on planned changes to laws on surveillance. |
