Poland may appeal European court ruling on CIA black site – PM Tusk

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said at the press conference, that Poland will most likely appeal against a European Court of Human Rights ruling that Poland hosted a secret CIA jail. “We're analyzing materials and it is quite probable that we will appeal against this ruling,” Tusk said. The European Court ordered Poland to pay €230,000 in damages to two to two Guantanamo inmates who alleged the CIA detained and tortured them in Poland. According to the court, Poland violated the European Convention on Human Rights. "The ruling of the tribunal in Strasbourg on CIA jails is embarrassing for Poland and is a burden both in terms of our country's finances as well as its image," Joanna Trzaska-Wieczorek, Poland’s president spokeswoman said on Thursday.
