EU ends rule of law proceedings against Poland under liberal Tusk

The European Union Commission is to end six years of rule of law proceedings against Poland, Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said on Monday, marking the opening of a "new chapter' for the country. The proceedings began when the far-right populist party PiS was in power in the country. Donald Tusk, who is a pro-EU liberal, assumed the position of prime minister last year.
