Poland has decided not to invite
the Hungarian ambassador and Prime Minister Viktor Orban to
today's event marking the start of Warsaw's rotating EU
presidency, after Budapest granted asylum to a former Polish
deputy minister under investigation for alleged abuse of public
funds, according to Deputy Minister for European Affairs
Magdalena Sobkowiak-Czarnecka. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk
and European Council President Antonio Costa are expected to
deliver speeches at the ceremony, which will take place in
Warsaw's Grand Theatre.
