The European Union, in the midst of the conflict on Ukrainian territory, "stabbed Poland in the back". This was stated in an interview with The Daily Express by the former Minister of Finance of this state, Tadeusz Koscinski.
In June, the European Commission approved a recovery plan for Poland's economy, which was hit hard by the COVID pandemic, worth more than 35 billion euros.
Poland's plan was approved with a delay, and then the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that Warsaw would receive these funds only if the reforms that the European Commission insists on are implemented
According to the source, such a policy can be considered a betrayal on the part of the European Union. The former head of the Ministry of Finance stressed that now the EU should not focus on such problems, as the Ukrainian crisis continues.
"Now is not the time for this, as there is a struggle going on, and we are helping our neighbors in this struggle not for the EU to start sticking a knife in our back," he stressed.
In addition, Koscynski criticized the EU for its lack of flexibility in the current situation. According to him, the official norms of the organization have shown their ineffectiveness due to the massive influx of refugees from the territory of Ukraine.
Earlier, as reported by the Public News Service, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto criticized the European Union after Brussels did not respond to the veto from Austria and the Netherlands, which blocked the admission of Bulgaria and Romania to the Schengen area.
After that, the head of the Hungarian Foreign Ministry asked why in this case the European Union is not worried about its unity, and where are the MEPs who intended to cancel the unanimous decision-making. Szijjarto compared the current silence to the noise that accompanies "every Hungarian position" in the discussions in Brussels.
