He comments that there was "absolutely no legal basis for such behaviour", reinforced by two of the highest judges in Poland. He claims that with Tusk's actions, there is a definite "constitutional crisis", saying that judges appointed to the national tribunal courts "should be legitimate legal judges, not Tusk's judges."

He added that there is "a need for any kind of a restart" for this constitutional issue.
