The new government of Poland headed by Donald Tusk, is carrying out reforms of the state media - the day before adopted a resolution on the impartiality of state media and appointed new supervisory boards of companies. But according to Polish President Andrzej Duda, the implemented reforms are tantamount to "anarchy," and the political goal does not justifies violation of constitutional principles, he said on the X-platform , UNN reports.

A political goal cannot be an excuse for violating constitutional principles and the law. Therefore, in connection with today's actions of the Minister of Culture against the state media, I call on Prime Minister Donald Tusk and the Council of Ministers to respect the Polish legal order

Also, the Polish president also commented to the private broadcaster Radio Zet, saying that the sudden way in which the changes were implemented violated the constitution, as they skipped the relevant parliamentary procedures.

These are absolutely illegal actions. This is anarchy .
