Zbigniew Ziobro is a prominent Polish politician who served as the Minister of Justice and Attorney General from 2016 to 2023. He is known for his conservative views and his role in controversial judicial reforms that drew criticism from the European Union for undermining judicial independence in Poland. Ziobro has been at the center of the Pegasus scandal, which involves the alleged illegal surveillance of opposition politicians and journalists during his tenure. His refusal to cooperate with investigations and subsequent arrest attempts have significantly impacted Poland's political landscape, particularly as the country approaches presidential elections.
