What the coverage says
Protesters and police clashed outside Poland's Constitutional Tribunal on Friday as the centrist government suspended the court's president, Bogdan Swieczkowski. Prime Minister Donald Tusk defended the ousting as an effort to "restore the rule of law" after years of far-right interference, while demonstrators and critics argued the move was unlawful. Sky News and Al Jazeera reported that Poland's president interrupted a trip to Senegal to join the demonstrations, where Al Jazeera and France 24 noted that riot police and heightened security met the crowds.
