brussels - Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydlo does not support the final declaration of the EU summit on Thursday in Brussels. She does this dissatisfaction on the reappointment of its compatriot Donald Tusk as president of the European Council. A kind of revenge, say insiders.

The conclusions of the summit, in this case on issues such as migration, economics and security are normally endorsed by all the leaders. Now Poland refuses, it is a statement of the remaining 27 countries. Which has no significant political consequences, but is seen in Brussels as a wrong signal to the consensus which wants to propagate the EU.

Tusk said in his acceptance speech just to see his reappointment as a ' expression of our unity today. ' But he said he was aware that it may sound paradoxical, given the lack of support from his own country. ' I will invariably work with all of you, because I'm really committed to a united Europe, 'assured the Polish former prime minister.

PiS, the conservative-populist party Szydlo, was disappointed at the reappointment of political foe Tusk. The party called it a bad omen for the debate on the future of Europe. Friday, leaders, without the British Prime Minister Theresa May, met to discuss further.
