Germany doesn't consider sanctions on Poland

German government spokesman Steffen Seibert  informed that Berlin is not mulling over imposing sanctions against Poland in a reaction to two broadly-criticized laws on media and judiciary passed by the PiS-controled parliament. "No,"  Seibert responded when asked whether sanctions were being considered. The question came after a head of the parliamentary club CDU/CSU said in an interview: "If it is determined that European values are being violated, then (EU) member states must have the courage to impose sanctions." Seibert stressed that Berlin wants deepen and preserve relations with Poland.
