EU triggers 'nuclear option' against Poland as Theresa May walks into diplomatic maelstrom
by Guest Wed Dec 20, 2017 2:05 pm
The European Commission has taken the "nuclear option" against Poland over democratic back-sliding, announcing Article 7 proceedings against the eastern EU state for undermining democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
The unprecedented step creates a massive diplomatic headache for Theresa May, who is due to land in Poland on Thursday with the Chancellor and Foreign Secretary for an annual UK-Poland summit designed to boost relations with Poland after Brexit.
The decision to trigger Article 7 - an official disciplinary process that could lead to Poland being stripped of its voting rights in the European Council - highlights the growing division between eastern and western Europe over democratic values and migration.
