PM and President for treaty ratification, PiS more hesitant
The much-awaited meeting between President Lech Kaczyński and Prime Minister Donald Tusk yesterday failed to produce a decisive breakthrough in the conflict over the ratification of the new EU Treaty.
However, a compromise looks within reach and should be hammered out over the weekend, an official government communique stated. According to PM Tusk, the President, who broadly supports an early ratification and is determined to avoid a referendum, asked for some more time to try and convince the opposition Law and Justice (PiS) party to soften its hard line stance on the treaty. On Saturday, the two men will meet again in Jurata, the presidential retreat on the Baltic coast. According to sources in the ruling Civic Platform (PO) party, PiS has backed itself into a corner through its opposition to the treaty and is aware it will face widespread criticism if it sinks the document. But PiS leader Jaroslaw Kaczyński yesterday made it clear that his party expected meaningful concessions from the PO in the ratification bill. (Dziennik, p. 1; Rzeczpospolita, p.
