Ziobro:
EU Justice Council Agrees to Polish Amendment on Preserving Cultural and National Identity of Children Placed in Foster Care
I am very pleased to announce a significant success for Poland at the European Union forum. This is a success achieved through the professional work of representatives of the Ministry of Justice, particularly Minister Michał Wójcik. This success is reflected in the unanimous decision adopted today within the framework of the Council of the EU on Justice and Home Affairs, where Poland's initiative to ensure that children in the EU, in conflict situations, are placed only in families that guarantee their cultural, linguistic, and national identity has been accepted. This Polish amendment has been adopted. Violation of these principles will carry responsibility before the CJEU. Poland's initiative at the EU forum, serving the interests of Polish children, is universal in nature. It does not only concern Polish children, who, as a result of this decision, will not be placed in foster families, for example, Muslim, German, or Italian ones. All EU bodies must take this decision into account and, consequently, will always have to be guided by the best interests of the child, which will be understood in such a way as to preserve the cultural, national, and linguistic identity of the child being placed in foster care” - said Minister Zbigniew Ziobro at a press briefing.
