The Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on Thursday that it was permanently recalling its ambassador to Hungary for his "hostile act" of granting asylum to former Polish deputy minister Marcin #Romanowski.

Polska obniża rangę stosunków dyplomatycznych z Węgrami. Ambasador odwołany

Ministerstwo Spraw Zagranicznych RP ogłosiło w czwartek, że na stałe odwołuje ambasadora na Węgrzech za „wrogi akt” udzielenia azylu byłemu polskiemu wiceministrowi Marcinowi Romanowskiemu, oskarżonemu o korupcję i nadużycia.

This seems like a significant move by Poland—but is tying an ambassador to a criminal *really* the reason? Or is this just the "straw that broke the camel’s back," an excuse, or something else entirely?

(If JD Vance fled to Canada, I’d be pissed too—but under a normal US administration, we wouldn’t downgrade diplomatic relations over it. Trump might, but most wouldn’t.)
