Poland\u2019s parliamentary committee has officially validated Prime Minister Donald Tusk\u2019s decision to waive his parliamentary immunity, clearing the path for legal proceedings initiated by the Polish Sovereign Institute.<\/p>\n
On July 2, Prime Minister Donald Tusk renounced his parliamentary immunity in response to a private indictment filed by the Polish Sovereign Institute. Tusk stated that this waiver provides an opportunity to further expose the involvement of right-wing politicians in cryptocurrency-related matters.<\/p>\n
On July 15, the Sejm’s Committee on Rules, Deputies’ Matters, and Immunity formally recognized the Prime Minister\u2019s declaration as meeting all legal requirements. This administrative step allows for criminal proceedings to commence regarding the specific allegations outlined in the indictment.<\/p>\n
The Polish Sovereign Institute filed the private lawsuit following claims made by Tusk on April 8. Citing the Internal Security Agency, the Prime Minister alleged that Zondacrypto CEO Przemys\u0142aw Kral made substantial payments to the Polish Sovereign Institute and the “Good Government” foundation associated with MP Przemys\u0142aw Wipler.<\/p>\n
In response, former Deputy Minister of Justice Piotr Cieplucha accused Tusk of using slander to distract from his government’s failures. Cieplucha claimed the foundation filed the indictment due to what he termed false and defamatory accusations leveled by the Prime Minister.<\/p>\n
The Regional Prosecutor’s Office in Katowice launched an investigation on April 17 into allegations of fraud against customers and money laundering at the Zondacrypto exchange. These actions follow reports from users facing significant difficulties withdrawing funds from the platform.<\/p>\n
Simultaneously, the broader regulatory environment remains unsettled. On June 11, President Karol Nawrocki vetoed legislation intended to implement the EU\u2019s MiCA regulations, arguing that excessive oversight could drive Polish technology companies out of the country.<\/p>\n
