Poland, often considered one of the more stable and more conservative nations across the landscape of Europe, sudden has been wracked by what could be an attempted coup.
It was Prime Minister Donald Tusk who waited until President Karol Nawrocki was out of the country, heading to Senegal, when he dispatched police to take over the operations of the nation’s top constitutional court, the Constitutional Tribunal.

As of late Friday, Nawrocki was on his way back, having ordered his plane to turn around, and violence was developing at the court.
According to Just the News, “Poland appears to be in a state of constitutional crisis.”
🚨🇵🇱COUP UNDERWAY IN POLAND! PM Donald Tusk has just sent police to storm Constitutional Tribunal building in Warsaw in the middle of the night. Tusk waited until President Karol Nawrocki left the country before ordering the police takeover. Nawrocki was halfway to Senegal when he abruptly turned his plane around and rushed back to Poland to confront the unfolding crisis. The EU, which backs Donald Tusk, has STILL NOT issued a statement on this unprecedented crisis or condemned the attempted coup. https://t.co/c57467fKcJ

Reports revealed a “de facto power struggle” had erupted.
“For now, the outcome of this confrontation remains uncertain. Judge Anna Korwin-Piotrowska called the police to the grounds of the Constitutional Tribunal, citing a potential threat to the safety of judges and staff. Police did not enter the building, but a significant number of officers have been deployed in the surrounding area. Korwin-Piotrowska suspended Tribunal President Bogdan Święczkowski and his deputy, Bartłomiej Sochański, for one month, temporarily taking charge of the institution herself,” reports explained.
The moves amounted to a “coup,” critics charged.
Conflict over Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal escalates in Warsaw: judge suspends its leadership and president cuts short Africa trip A de facto power struggle has erupted within one of Poland’s most important state institutions in Warsaw today. For now, the outcome of this confrontation remains uncertain. Judge Anna Korwin-Piotrowska called the police to the grounds of the Constitutional Tribunal, citing a potential threat to the safety of judges and staff. Police did not enter the building, but a significant number of officers have been deployed in the surrounding area. Korwin-Piotrowska suspended Tribunal President Bogdan Święczkowski and his deputy, Bartłomiej Sochański, for one month, temporarily taking charge of the institution herself. Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of the opposition Law and Justice (PiS) party, called the developments a “coup” and urged Polish President Karol Nawrocki to intervene. Nawrocki has cut short his visit to Senegal and is returning to Poland. The conflict stems from a deep division over the composition of the court. Donald Tusk’s government refuses to recognise the Tribunal’s rulings because of judges appointed under the previous PiS government. Meanwhile, Nawrocki and Święczkowski refuse to recognise judges elected by the Sejm in 2026. Korwin-Piotrowska is among them: the president refused to accept her oath of office, while Święczkowski had previously prevented her from participating in court proceedings.
