Comments after Poland's rule of law hearing in the EU

The Polish government is commenting on what it's calling a sad incident and is hoping that the issue of the rule of law will be quickly resolved. This was what Minister Szymański was saying after the hearing that took place in Luxembourg. However, the First Vice-President of the European Commission Frans Timmermans also spoke after the meeting, in much less optimistic tones. The threat of Article 7 still hangs above Poland.
