Poland's right-wing nationalist government has increasingly been at odds with the union on issues ranging from LGBT rights to judicial independence.

The latest row has come to a head over an unprecedented and controversial ruling by Poland's Constitutional Tribunal that in effect rejects the core principle that EU law has primacy over national legislation.

The EU still hasn't learned from Brexit and the Greek crisis. There has to be a mechanism to kick members out if they cannot (or refuse to) conform to EU rules or standards of governance.

Hope ASEAN also does this, e.g. mechanism to kick Myanmar out or suspend it's membership.

I think they might not want to kick Poland out yet. They just want to force Poland to adhere to the EU laws.

ASEAN's decisions are based on consensus and non-interference of internal affairs of member nations.
