Donald Tusk’s proposal for a “temporary territorial suspension of the right to asylum” has drawn criticism from Brussels.
Brussels has informed Warsaw that suspending the right to asylum violates EU law

Tusk defended the plan, set to be announced on Tuesday, as a necessary response to migration pressures orchestrated by Russia and Belarus since August 2021.
While border crossings have risen recently, they remain below the levels seen during the height of the crisis.
