The EU called for Poland to suspend it’s Supreme Court disciplinary chamber.

On Twitter, Poland’s Deputy Justice Minister Sebastian Kaleta called the fine “usurpation and blackmail.”

The disciplinary chamber was set up in 2018 and is able to dismiss judges and prosecutors. The ECJ fears this could be abused to inflict punitive sanctions on those who show independence in not bowing to political will.

Earlier this month, Poland’s constitutional court ruled Polish law supersedes EU law when there is a conflict between the two. This is what the EU does not like.

Last week, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki told the European Parliament the disciplinary chamber will be abolished, but he gave no timeline for when that would occur and no draft law has been introduced.

Poland is being accused of sliding back to their independence. The EU asserts Poland has politicized the judiciary with the placement of judges loyal to the ruling Law and Justice Party.

The ECJ said in a press release the fine was “necessary in order to avoid serious and irreparable harm to the legal order of the European Union and to the values on which that Union is founded, in particular that of the rule of law.”

The EU is accused of Hitler style ruling and preparing it’s own EU military could cause a shakeup in the world peace, and economics.
