The European Parliament adopted a resolution calling on the European Commission as well as European Council to launch infringement procedures against Poland. The principle of the primacy of European Commission law is based on the idea that where a conflict arises between an aspect of European Commission law and an aspect of law in a European Commission country (national law), European Union law will prevail, according to the bloc.

The resolution, with 502 votes for, 153 against and 16 abstentions, said Poland's Constitutional Tribunal, which ruled on October 7 that parts of the European treaties were unable to get along with the Polish constitution, is "contested and illegitimate", according to reports on Friday The resolution called the ruling "an attack on the European community of values and laws as a whole, undermining the primacy of EU (European Union) law".

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki argued earlier that "the primacy of EU law does not extend to the constitutional system... The Polish Constitution is the highest legal act in Poland; it stands above any other principle of law. We will not act under the pressure of blackmail," he said.
