Poland Excludes Hungary's Orban from EU Event Over Asylum for Ex-Minister Marcin Romanowski
Jan 3, 2025, 01:56 PM
Poland has decided not to invite Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Hungary's ambassador to an inauguration gala marking the start of its presidency of the Council of the European Union. The event, scheduled for Friday evening at the Grand Theatre in Warsaw, follows Hungary's term as EU Council president. The decision comes after Hungary granted political asylum to former Polish Deputy Justice Minister Marcin Romanowski, who is under investigation in Poland for alleged misuse of public funds. Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski confirmed that Hungary's representatives are not welcome at the ceremony, reflecting escalating tensions between the two countries over the handling of legal and political matters.
