Poland has suspended the distribution of nearly €282 million in EU recovery grants following allegations of misuse, including luxury purchases and grants linked to a swinger’s club. The Finance Minister announced a review of all 2,400 grants, which were part of a post-Covid recovery plan totaling around €1,200 million. The controversy emerged after the Polish authorities published interactive maps of grant recipients, revealing that some funds were used for yachts, luxury furniture, and a grant registered to a swingers’ club address. The scandal has sparked political tensions, with the conservative PiS party attacking the current government for the alleged misuse, while the Prime Minister defends the urgency of disbursing the funds under tight deadlines.
