TL;DR Summary

The EU has expressed concern over a new commission approved by Poland's parliament, which could bar people from public office for links to Russia. The commission will investigate alleged Russian interference between 2007-2022, with critics claiming it is designed to attack opposition leader and ex-prime minister Donald Tusk. The panel will be dominated by government MPs and could deliver its first report as soon as September. The EU has threatened to take action against Poland, which is already in a long-running battle with the bloc over judicial reforms.
