Polish min at V4 meeting: “Warsaw perceives double standards, too”
The Polish government has also perceived the application of double standards within the European Union and rejected external attempts to exert political pressure on the country, the Polish minister of funds and regional policy said after a ministerial session of the V4 countries in Budapest on Friday.
The decisions of Brussels are often motivated by political considerations even in areas where such considerations have no place, Grzegorz Puda said. Some forces have aversion to see the pace of Hungary and Poland’s development and therefore tend to portray both countries in false colours before the western public, he added.
Hungarian-Polish cooperation may be conducive to important initiatives within the European Union, Poda said, adding that it is important for the two countries to represent values that the leaders of other member states do not dare to stand by.

The double standard is Poland, suddenly after 18 years, claiming that the Treaty they signed in Athens in 2003 in order to join the EU in 2004 is incompatible with their constitution that was created in 1997. There are only 3 possibilities, either back in 2003 they did not or could not read what they were signing, or they signed in the full knowledge that there was a conflict with their constitution (and so signed fraudulently), or they are reinterpreting their constitution post eventu. Double standards.
