POLAND: A Warsaw court opened a defamation case today brought by the country’s most powerful politician, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, against a journalist who publicly alleges that he is gay.
Mr Kaczynski, the leader of Poland’s ruling right-wing party, is demanding an apology and a retraction from journalist Jan Pinski, who made the allegations on his YouTube channel last year.
Mr Pinski claimed that by hiding his sexuality, Mr Kaczynski leaves himself open to blackmail.
MARK HAZELDEN criticises the Western narrative that the incident was an escalation of Russia’s confrontation with the West, given that Belarus, a Russian ally, warned Poland of off-course drones, and the drones were unarmed, cheap wooden decoys
