PM Beata Szydlo said nothing ought to be chosen without Poland's understanding.
The decision Law and Justice Party (PiS) intractably restricts Mr Tusk, a previous head administrator from an adversary party.
Reporters say such threatening vibe among comrades is exceedingly surprising in EU legislative issues.
In any case, Mr Tusk is still anticipated that would get enough support to keep his post.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has supported another 30-month term for Mr Tusk, saying it would be an "indication of strength".
As European Council president, he would assume a noteworthy part in the UK's Brexit arrangements.
Thursday's meeting of EU pioneers in Brussels is the last that UK Prime Minister Theresa May will go to before formally propelling the two-year Brexit handle in the not so distant future.
In spite of the fact that Brexit itself is not on the motivation, pioneers will meet again on Friday - less Mrs May - to talk about EU solidarity.
What's going on with Poland?
Poland's legislature is frantically attempting to keep Mr Tusk from being re-chosen to a moment term as leader of the European Council. Rather it has proposed its own particular hopeful, somewhat known Polish MEP called Jacek Saryusz-Wolski.
Touching base for the summit, Ms Szydlo said Poland's voice must be listened.
"Nothing ought to be chosen without our assent," she said.
"Today in this building it is great to review this primary guideline of group building."
In a meeting prior with Polish TV, Foreign Minister Waszczykowski said his nation could even veto the summit's decisions to scupper Mr Tusk's re-race.
Be that as it may, Prime Minister Joseph Muscat of Malta, which presently holds the pivoting EU administration, recommended Mr Tusk's re-decision couldn't be blocked.
"One nation, or various nations may be against that choice, yet one nation can't obstruct a choice," he said.
"There are clear guidelines of engagement and tenets of methodology which we will take after."
Ms. Szydlo has likewise composed a letter to EU pioneers saying Mr. Tusk has "damaged numerous circumstances his European command" by getting required in Polish political question and supporting the resistance to the legislature.
The EU has infuriated Poland's patriot government by ensuring changes to the nation's top court, new confinements on writers and its resistance to resettling evacuees by share.
Why is the Polish government so unfriendly to Mr. Tusk?
Mr. Tusk was PM from 2007-2014. He drove the inside right Civic Platform when the PiS was in restriction.
PiS pioneer Jaroslaw Kaczynski holds Mr. Tusk "politically" in charge of the 2010 plane crash in Russia which slaughtered his twin Lech Kaczynski, the then Poland's leader, and all other 95 individuals on load up.
The plane smashed in thick mist. Official examinations ruled pilot mistake was the important cause.
In 2012, Jaroslaw Kaczynski revealed to Mr. Tusk in parliament: "In the political sense you bear 100% obligation regarding the fiasco in Smolensk."
Many Poles trust Mr. Tusk's legislature did not do what's needed to clarify the reasons for the crash. Commentators say Mr. Tusk ought not to have permitted the Russians to direct the primary crash examination.
Under the Chicago Convention, which covers universal air travel, the state on whose domain a crash happens bears obligation regarding leading the examination.
Jaroslaw Kaczynski additionally blamed Mr. Tusk for favoring "arrangements that are to a great degree hurtful to Poland".
What does the European Council president do?
The European Council unites the heads of state and legislature of the 28 EU part states. Mutually they set the EU's key heading in key ranges, for example, change of the euro zone, the Greek obligation emergency, the vagrant test and relations with Russia.
The Council president expects to accomplish accord - sending all his political attitudes - on these precarious issues, where national pressures frequently direct how pioneers carry on.
Mr Tusk assumed responsibility in late 2014 and his term closes on 31 May. On the off chance that his kindred pioneers back him on Thursday, he will remain in office until 30 November 2019. That period agrees with the normal two-year Brexit chats on UK withdrawal from the EU.
Malta, presently leading EU business, is probably going to look for endorsement of Mr Tusk by accord. Poland's antagonistic vibe may push it to a vote - however then Mr Tusk is still prone to win by a qualified greater part.
