Radosław Sikorski accuses President Nawrocki of constitutional violations

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski has criticized President Karol Nawrocki, claiming the current political rift regarding foreign policy constitutes a violation of the constitution. Sikorski emphasized that according to the constitution, the Council of Ministers is responsible for conducting foreign policy, and the president should represent that policy even when in disagreement.

Sikorski expressed disappointment following the president's recent address to the UN General Assembly, noting the absence of mentions regarding the war in Ukraine. He suggested that the president may be attempting to gain popularity by catering to external sentiments against Ukraine.

Furthermore, the Foreign Minister warned of coordinated Russian disinformation campaigns in Poland. He noted that certain political narratives, such as labeling the European Union as a ‘Fourth Reich’, align with Kremlin propaganda aimed at inciting tension between Poles, Ukrainians, and Western institutions.
