Kaczynski accuses Brussels of building 'superstate'

Poland's ruling party leader, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, has accused Brussels of trying to build a superstate with a hierarchy of nation states. In a speech at the European Parliament on Tuesday, Poland's prime minister, Mateusz Morawiecki, presented the rationale behind a recent Constitutional Tribunal's verdict stating that Poland's constitution takes precedence before EU treaties. Morawiecki's speech met with criticism from most MEPs and his arguments were also countered by the European Council president, Ursula von der Leyen who warned of possible repercussions against Poland.
