Around the EU, voting to select a new batch of MEPs will take place between June 6 and 9, Polish state news agency PAP reported.

The ballot will be the third in an electoral marathon in Poland, following national parliamentary elections last autumn and local elections scheduled for next month.

The European Parliament is the directly elected parliamentary institution of the European Union, of which Poland has been a member since 2004.

Poles will go to the ballot box in June to elect 53 MEPs, the PAP news agency reported.
