The Provincial Administrative Court in Warsaw is seen by some as pursuing foreign interests by siding with actions led by the requested parties. On behalf of Die Große Kreisstadt Zittau, the Czech and German branches of Greenpeace and the Frank Bold Foundation, it is argued that the court seeks the closure of the Turów mine. Officials and supporters insist this should not stand, emphasizing a pledge to protect tens of thousands of local jobs in the region. (Source: wPolityce attribution)
