Poland needs to abide by EU rules to enjoy benefits of membership – Kelly

MEPs in the European Parliament slammed the Polish government and its prime minister this morning in a bruising debate about rule of law issues in Poland.

The debate followed a ruling earlier this month by Poland’s constitutional tribunal, which found that key parts of EU law were incompatible with the Country’s constitution.

During the debate the Polish Prime Minister (Mateusz Morawiecki), defended the Court’s decision and he accused the EU of blackmail.

Fine Gael MEP Sean Kelly says Poland must abide by EU rules if it’s to benefit from membership of the bloc.
