Polish row over EU law euronews Polish row over EU law and soaring energy prices to take centre stage during European summit The row between Brussels and Warsaw over EU law primacy, which Ursula von der Leyen has described as a "direct challenge to the unity of the European legal order", is poised to take centre stage when leaders descend upon Brussels on Thursday for a two-day in-person summit. The years-long showdown over the worsening state of judicial independence in Poland reached a new low earlier this month when the Polish Constitutional Court issued a defiant verdict that found two key articles of EU treaties were incompatible with the country's constitution. The judges, in a majority decision, objected to the transfer of sovereignty from Poland to the European Union (Article 1) and rejected the supreme legal authority of the EU's Court of Justice (ECJ), based in Luxembourg (Article 19). The ruling is seen as a "nuclear strike" on the primacy of the EU law, one of the union's cornerstone principles. Established back in 1964 as a result of the precedent-setting Costa v ENEL case, the principle states that, in all cases where the EU has competence, the bloc's laws have priority over national legislation, even over a country's constitution. Although some tribunals from other member states had previously examined the conflict between EU law and national constitutions, this is the first time that a high court flat out rejects specific articles of the EU treaties. Before entering the bloc, candidates countries are asked to incorporate the entire legislation of the European Union and make the appropriate changes to their domestic laws. This month's summit had been scheduled before the shocking judgment and its original agenda didn't include any mention of the issue. However, a group of outraged EU countries began pushing to put the contentious topic on the table so that leaders can have a debate at the political level. Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg (the so-called Benelux) led the public campaign, with the support of like-minded countries. According to EU officials, another group of countries objected to having a discussion on the Polish ruling during the European summit, but President Michel eventually agreed to put rule of law on the agenda.
