UK " Financial Times " reported on October 16 that due to the rule of law issues of Poland , EU is preparing to freeze regional aid to Poland.
report introduced that the EU and Poland's ruling party " Law and PKP " have long conflicts on the rule of law issue. The EU believes that the control of the Polish courts by the "Law and PKP" does not comply with the EU's legal requirements. For Poland, EU aid is very important. The report pointed out that Poland expects to use these funds to develop its economy. Poland has been the biggest beneficiary of this EU aid.
The Financial Times said that Poland is working hard to get EU funds. Polish Health Minister Ukash Shumovsky said that losing the funds would be a big trouble for Poland. Poland recently underwent a government reorganization, replacing the minister in charge of EU affairs. Poland also told the EU that Poland's reform of the judicial disciplinary system this year is enough to solve the concerns of the European Commission on the rule of law.
But senior EU officials believe that these measures are not in-depth enough and do not meet EU standards. However, the official stressed that this does not mean that the money has been confirmed to not be cashed out. A Polish official said that by the time the payment request for EU funds is made next year, Poland's rule of law is expected to change.
