Poland could receive part of the frozen EU funds by the end of the year. The reason for the change in Brussels policy is the fact that Donald Tusk will soon become Prime Minister.
During his recent visit to Brussels, Donald Tusk stated that “the completion of the legislative process will not be necessary” to release funds from the National Reconstruction Plan.
– All political leaders and prime ministers, regardless of which party they come from, want this money to reach Poland as quickly as possible. Credible steps will be needed, Tusk said.
The words of the opposition candidate for prime minister received widespread attention. United Right politicians pointed out that all EU blackmail was political in nature, and that the whole issue of the rule of law was just an “artificially created deception”.
PiS’s Bartłomiej Wróblewski said that “this only confirms that blocking the KPO was a purely political action aimed at changing the government in Poland. Donald Tusk is giving disastrous testimony to the European institutions.”
EU money for Poland
Now these opinions seem to be confirmed. According to Bloomberg, Poland could receive around 550 million euros from the advance tranche of the EU reconstruction fund by the end of this year, without any conditions. This is related to the opposition’s planned takeover and the return of Donald Tusk as head of the Polish government.
“In the coming weeks, the European Commission plans to sign the Polish government’s request to use part of the aid worth approximately 2.8 billion euros. The money is intended to help member states become independent of Russian energy sources,” the agency wrote. .
A decision on this will be taken at the meeting of EU finance ministers on December 8. If the outcome is positive, the money will flow to Poland this year, just a few days after the opposition takes power.
