Poland Pursues New Constitution Amid Defense Financing Agreement
Polish President Karol Nawrocki has appointed a council to draft proposals for a new constitution amidst ongoing legislative deadlock. Concurrently, Poland is set to finalize a $51 billion EU defense financing agreement to enhance military capabilities.

Poland is preparing to finalize a $51 billion EU defense agreement under the SAFE mechanism, aimed at bolstering military spending. In parallel, President Karol Nawrocki has appointed a council to draft a new constitution, a move that reflects tensions with the ruling coalition and ongoing legislative gridlock.
The council's work is expected to address systemic issues in Polish governance but faces challenges due to the lack of a two-thirds majority in the Sejm, potentially limiting progress. Critics, including Deputy Prime Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, emphasize the need to adhere to the current constitution. The upcoming parliamentary elections may further complicate the constitutional initiative, while the defense agreement is anticipated to enhance Poland's military capabilities, particularly in air defense.
