Polish ambassador to UN becomes third envoy to resign amid crisis over constitutional court
Poland's UN ambassador, Krzysztof Szczerski, has resigned amid a crisis involving the Constitutional Tribunal, following similar resignations from ambassadors to China and Romania. All three ambassadors, former aides to ex-President Duda, criticized the government's attempt to suspend the tribunal's chief justice, Bogdan Święczkowski. The resignations coincide with escalating tensions at the tribunal, where government-backed judges have attempted to assert control. Prime Minister Donald Tusk condemned these actions, emphasizing the need for rule of law. Legal experts have raised concerns about the legitimacy of the tribunal's current situation, with further developments anticipated soon.
