President Karol Nawrocki signs windfall tax law for fuel companies

President Karol Nawrocki has signed a controversial law requiring fuel companies to pay taxes on extraordinary profits. The legislation aims to address high fuel prices and inflation, though it has met with significant political friction.

Legal representatives for major oil corporations are reportedly preparing lawsuits to be filed in European Union tribunals, alleging that the parliamentary decision is unconstitutional. The signing of the law occurred despite expectations from the Tusk administration that the President would veto the measure.
