Zbigniew Ziobro blackmails Europe
00:48
Zbigniew Ziobro said the country should suspend its payments to the EU budget and veto all EU proposals that require unanimity, if Brussels cuts funds for Warsaw and intensifies the fight for the rule of law, the Financial Times wrote on the weekend.
"Poland should respond to the EU blackmail with a veto on all matters that require unanimity in the EU. Poland should also revise its commitment to the EU climate and energy policy, which results in drastic increases in energy prices," Ziobro told the London daily.
"If this dispute escalates, I will demand that Poland suspend contributions to the EU. It would be justified because the EU unlawfully denies us funds from the common budget, to which we are also contributing," he added.
