un juge polonais fuit en biélorussie

Passante devant la Cour suprême polonaise à Varsovie le 22 octobre 2018.

Avec notre correspondant à Varsovie, Martin Chabal

Tomasz Szmydt, juge polonais, s’est réfugié à Minsk. Il se dit persécuté et intimidé par le gouvernement polonais. Lui qui se présente comme un indépendant, contre la guerre, qui accuse les États-Unis et la Grande-Bretagne d’influencer la Pologne pour faire la guerre à la Russie et la Biélorussie. Il faudrait, toujours selon ses propos, soutenir la paix et renouer avec Moscou et Minsk, malgré la guerre en Ukraine.

Il a d’ailleurs été accueilli à bras ouvert par la Biélorussie, pays amical et ouvert selon le juge polonais qui a commenté sa situation pour l’agence de presse publique biélorusse, qui fait office de porte-parole de la propagande du régime du président Alexandre Loukachenko.

Face à cette histoire, la Pologne veut vérifier si Tomasz Szmydt n’était pas un espion pour le compte de la Russie. De sa position de juge du tribunal administratif, il aurait pu avoir accès à des informations confidentielles. D’autant que Szmydt avait été nommé pour juger une affaire impliquant des refus d’accès à des informations classées secrètes de l’Otan et de l’Union européenne…
