Aachen, Germany - Donald Tusk, prime minister of Poland, has won one of Germany's top prizes for public service, the Charlemagne Prize awarded by the city of Aachen, judges said Saturday. The award, handed over every spring in a remnant of the Emperor Charlemagne's early medieval palace, generally goes to a European Union leader and honours efforts in favour of European unity.
Tusk, 52, was a 'patriot and a great European at the same time,' the judges said. The award will be handed to him in Aachen on May 13.
