Poland vs Pfizer. Court blocked the possibility of accessing PAŻP funds

The court confirmed that the funds from navigation fees belong to PAŻP, not the State Treasury, which cannot be used to settle Pfizer's claims against Poland regarding COVID-19 vaccine purchases. The State Treasury has appealed a Brussels court ruling ordering Poland to accept 64 million doses of vaccines and pay 5.644 billion PLN to Pfizer. The dispute arose after Poland refused to accept part of the vaccine order in 2022, citing changes in the epidemic situation and the war in Ukraine. The Health Ministry plans to use all legal means to challenge the ruling.
