But the head of the NBP before the State Tribunal? “We don't back down from anything”

The Civic Coalition has not given up its plans to bring the president of the NBP to the State Tribunal – informed the Minister of Finance and Economy, Andrzej Domański, on Polsat News.

“KO doesn't back down from anything,” he said.

Recently, the media reported that the Polish government quietly abandoned plans to bring NBP President Adam Glapiński to the State Tribunal due to concerns that the legal battle may shake foreign investors' confidence in Polish bonds.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk promised to dismiss the president of the NBP during the 2023 election campaign. He accused Glapiński of practicing politics and threatened to bring him before the State Tribunal. A group of MPs from the ruling coalition submitted a preliminary motion to bring the President of the NBP, Adam Glapiński, before the State Tribunal in March 2024. The motion accuses the President of the NBP of violating the constitution and laws, including: by indirectly financing the budget deficit as part of asset purchases in 2020-2021, conducting this purchase without “due authorization” from the Monetary Policy Council, or by failing to comply with the apolitical order of the President of the NBP.

The NBP considers the allegations to be completely groundless and believes that the entire proceedings may paralyze the work of the central bank. (PAP Business)
