PolandPoland has officially requested the United States to detain and extradite former Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro, who faces 26 criminal charges, including leading an organized crime group and abusing his position. Ziobro, a prominent member of the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party, fled Poland in 2023 to Hungary, where he received asylum under the leadership of Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. After Orbán's government changed in 2026, Ziobro moved to the U.S. Following a court decision rejecting his appeal against pretrial detention, Poland is now seeking his extradition through diplomatic channels.
