EU Ends Rule of Law Proceedings Against Poland

ai generated text

The European Union has announced its intention to withdraw the Article 7 procedure, which was initiated in December 2017 due to concerns over democratic backsliding and undermining of EU standards by Poland's previous populist government. The procedure was launched under Article 7 of the Treaty on European Union, which allows for sanctions against a member state that is deemed to be at risk of breaching the rule of law.

  1. Adam Bodnar
    European Union
    1. Great news from Brussels today! Thank you President @vonderleyen for the cooperation and support!
    2. Poland is consequently bringing back rule of law. We are determined and devoted to our common European values.

    Ursula Von Der Leyen
    European Commission
    1. The ongoing restoration of the rule of law in Poland is great for the Polish people and for our union as a whole.
    2. After more than six years, we believe that the Article 7 procedure can be closed. I congratulate (Polish) PM Donald Tusk and his government on this important breakthrough.
