Kaczyński floats 'tough method' and EU exit talks, seeking bloc reform

Jarosław Kaczyński, leader of Poland's ruling PiS, said at the Krynica Forum that Poland should consider starting negotiations on leaving the EU as a 'tough method' to force change, citing the bloc's current state as 'so bad' that the risky approach is justified. This marks a notable rhetorical escalation from PiS, which has previously avoided explicit 'Polexit' language, though it remains a negotiating threat rather than a formal policy shift. The statement signals potential heightened friction between Warsaw and Brussels, with implications for EU cohesion and Polish political stability.
