In opting for this solution, the Polish government has decided against an individual verification of each "neo-judge". This is a mistake, in my view, as I believe Poland is more than capable of reviewing those people in a reasonable time frame. 14/

Orbán is currently the oly EU leader disrupting EU unity, and its clear and strong support for Zelensky and Ukraine. A disgrace for Hungary.
💥Scoop: As EU leaders rally around Zelensky in support, I have obtained this fresh letter from Viktor Orbán to António Costa, threatening to obstruct EU unity in support of Ukraine. As I previously wrote, Hungary is becoming a Trojan horse for Trump after already serving as one for China and Russia.
