Bogucki: This is not a battle for the Tribunal, it is a battle for Polish democracy

You can see headlines in the media that this is a "battle for the Tribunal". I would like to say very clearly that this is not a battle for the Tribunal, but today in the Republic of Poland there is a battle for Polish democracy. The question is whether the executive power, the government, the prime minister and his ministers will be subject to the control of any independent bodies, (...) or whether the executive power in the form of the government headed by Prime Minister Donald Tusk will have unlimited and uncontrolled power - said Zbigniew Bogucki during a meeting with the media.

According to the head of the KPRP, "it's not about names."

It is not about the president of the Constitutional Tribunal, Bogdan Święczkowski, vice-president Bartłomiej Sochański, nor about Mrs. Anna Korwin-Piotrowska or Mr. Maciej Berek, but about who is actually constitutionally, statutorily and legally empowered to be the president of the Constitutional Tribunal, said Bogucki.

Bogucki also assured that President Karol Nawrocki's decision on the Constitutional Tribunal "is not for political reasons, but out of concern for the Republic of Poland."

The truth lies where there are facts, where there is law written in the Constitution of the Republic of Poland and in statutes, and not in various types of completely absurd interpretations created to meet the needs of the moment, political needs - he said.
