Donald Tusk presents his government to Polish parliament as he becomes prime minister Europe live
Briefly

Congratulations to Prime Minister @DonaldTusk and the new Polish Government. Poland is a key partner for Sweden, not least for security in Baltic Sea Region and support for Ukraine. Looking forward to discussing in the near future how we can deepen our cooperation. SwedishPM (@SwedishPM) December 12, 2023
Tusk's return after eight years of rule by the Law & Justice party (PiS) will be a moment of satisfaction for those raising a glass of vodka in Gdansk; many of those playing have supported him since his time as a student organiser working with the anti-communist Solidarity movement that emerged from strikes at the local shipyards. But they will also recognise that Tusk's second coming is far from guaranteed to succeed; communism did fall in Poland, but the performance of Lechia Gdansk never did match the passion of its fans.
