French President Emmanuel Macron and Poland's prime minister took a first, key step Thursday toward mending differences that are weighing on the whole European Union. We were able to explain many questions to each other and we agreed to hold more talks," Polish Prime Minister Beata Szydlo said. "I trust that it will be possible for us to find a compromise" on the issue of truck drivers and posted workers, she said. He said they remained in disagreement over the posted workers, but worked to "remove misunderstanding and evolve toward a position of convergence." He also sounded a slightly softer line on judicial reforms in Poland that critics see as an authoritarian power grab.
