On February 3, the Center for Fundamental Rights has called a press conference introducing a new study compiled by the Hungarian-Polish Institute of Freedom in Budapest, presenting a report by Dr. Oskar Kida and Dr. Marcin Romanowski, former Deputy Minister of Justice and currently a Law and Justice Party (PiS) MP in exile in Hungary. The study is entitled “The War over the Tribunal. The dispute over the validity of the election of judges to the Constitutional Tribunal in Poland in 2015.” The conference was also attended by former Polish Minister of Justice Zbigniew Ziobro, who also received political asylum in Hungary due to repression against national-conservative forces in his home country.
The report concerns the ongoing dispute over the Polish Constitutional Tribunal. At the outset Dr. Marcin Romanowski, emphasized that the Hungarian-Polish Institute of Freedom serves as an early warning system:
We analyze the lawlessness taking place in Poland under the rule of globalists and warn others about similar threats. In the current situation, this primarily concerns Hungarians,”
he stressed. In Poland, liberal lawlessness means repression not only against opposition politicians, but also against ordinary officials and people who think differently.
Former justice minister Zbigniew Ziobro recalled that Poland has become a laboratory of liberal lawlessness par excellence – a testing ground for globalists showing how nations such as the Poles and Hungarians can be destroyed by imposing puppet governments on them. The result of these actions is the demolition of the apparatus of power of sovereign states, the destruction of conservative nations, still based on Christian roots, through woke ideology, which primarily affects children and young people, as well as the admission of illegal Islamic immigrants who pose a threat to security. He pointed out that Hungary is the next target of manipulation and blackmail by Brussels. Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s crypto-dictatorship in Poland is a visualization of what Hungary might look like if the globalist opposition took power there.

The current authorities in Poland, for instance, do not recognize the judgments of the Constitutional Tribunal. The liberals of Donald Tusk claim that at the end of 2015, conservatives “illegally” elected three judges to the Constitutional Tribunal. They use this as a pretext for ruling by lawlessness. The authors point out that the conflict surrounding the Constitutional Tribunal is not of a technical or legal nature, but is part of a broader struggle for state sovereignty, the scope of democracy, and the limits of European institutions’ interference in the constitutional order of member states.

The rest of the report shows how the dispute over the Constitutional Tribunal was used in subsequent years as a tool of political pressure, both domestically and internationally. The authors describe the process of gradual undermining of the Constitutional Tribunal’s status by the liberal opposition, part of the judicial community, and EU institutions, culminating in the open non-recognition of the Tribunal’s rulings by Donald Tusk’s government after 2023. Particular attention is paid to the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union of December 18, 2025, which, according to the authors, constitutes an unprecedented interference in the constitutional system of a Member State and is based on erroneous findings of fact concerning the election of Constitutional Tribunal judges in 2015.
The report argues that the attack on the Constitutional Tribunal is an example of an attempt to push through a political model of juristocracy, in which the democratic decisions of national parliaments are neutralized by liberal judges from national and supranational courts, acting on the basis of an expansive, law-making interpretation.
This model is global in nature and can be applied to other Central European countries, in particular Hungary.
