Poland tensions with Ukraine and EU "Kremlin plan": Tusk
AFP>Yahoo ^

Brussels (AFP) - European Council President Donald Tusk on Sunday questioned whether tensions between Poland's rightwing government with Ukraine and the EU is a "Kremlin plan".

"Alarm!" warned Tusk, a former liberal prime minister of Poland, on his personal Twitter account.

"Intense dispute with Ukraine, isolation within the European Union, departure from the rule of law and judicial independence, attack on the non-governmental sector and free media - is this PiS strategy or the Kremlin's plan? Too similar to sleep peacefully," he said in Polish.

The governing conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party is increasingly at odds with Brussels because of its controversial court reforms, large-scale logging in a primeval forest and refusal to welcome migrants.

Wow, Poland is acting like a country! No wonder Tusk is pissed, he thought the whole of the EU had to do what he says.

Tusk sounds like some of the people on THIS site. If we don’t want a hot war with Russia over the Ukraine, then we are just bots being paid by Moscow.

The vast right-wing conspiracy and the Russians. Sounds familiar, isn’t it?

Last time I checked it was Ukraine making tensions. Poland didn’t like certain Ukrainian officials pushing Nazi propaganda in Poland proper and Kiev started to throw fits about it.

For those not familiar with Polish politics, these claims are not credible in anyway.
