Will Commissioner von der Leyen clash with Eurofanatic Polish PM Donald Tusk?
Unchecked mass migration is an obsession for the Eurocrats that rule the European Union, starting with Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen.
In fact, the EU Commission announced a hardening of its official line regarding Poland, and threatened to launch legal action against the country if it makes good on its promise not to comply with the ‘Pact on Migration and Asylum’.
The Migration Pact are five laws that force all 27 member states to ‘collectively manage’ the arrival of new asylum seekers, that is to enter into force in mid-2026.
Euronews reported:
“’Once adopted, EU law is binding in all concerned member states and once entered into application, the legal instruments of the Pact will be binding in all member states’, a Commission spokesperson said on Monday afternoon.
‘If a member state risks delaying or even undermining the implementation of the Pact, the Commission will need to take the necessary measures’.”
Hungary’s Orbán is against the EU immigrations rules of von der Leyen, and now his rival Tusk will also not implement it.
This is a very different reaction from the one shown by Commissioner for Internal Affairs and Migration Magnus Brunner, who avoided the question of action against Poland and instead praised Warsaw’s actions.
“’Poland is very active in its presidency on these topics when it comes to returns, when it comes to other topics (like) weaponization’, the Commissioner said. ‘I think Poland is such an important partner on that (front) and is doing a very active job as the presidency. And the rest has been said’.”
In February, Tusk told von der Leyen that Poland found itself in a ‘particular position’ due to a migration push that he says is ‘instrumentalized by Belarus’, as well as the ‘mass arrival’ of Ukrainians who fled Russia’s war.
“’Poland will not accept any burdens related to the relocation mechanism. This is not an ideological debate’, Tusk said, referring to ‘huge’ migratory pressure.
‘If somebody says that Poland is expected to shoulder an additional burden, irrespective of who says that, my response is Poland will not accept an additional burden. Full stop’.”
An EU spokesperson said that ‘it is the prerogative of the Commission to open an infringement process’.
Poland refuses the mechanism of ‘mandatory solidarity’ that would force it to pay a financial contribution to the countries accepting 30,000 illegal migrants per year.
