Police in Warsaw have detained a 16-year-old for allegedly plotting a mass murder after discovering an arsenal of weapons in his home. Separately, Prime Minister Tusk is considering a promotion for Finance Minister Andrzej Domański, whose personal wealth has become a subject of public scrutiny.
Relations with Kyiv remain brittle. Donald Tusk warned Ukraine he did not understand a recent decision in Lviv; shortly after, local authorities there withdrew a controversial designation of a 'UPA Year' and offered a promise to Poland. Diplomacy often requires such sudden changes of heart.
The domestic docket remains full as a verdict is expected in the case of a driver accused of killing a family on the A1 motorway, and a professor warned that vetoing the electoral code is akin to playing with fire. It is a busy morning for those monitoring both the rule of law and the literal rules of the game.
