Poland's recent presidential election, won by conservative historian Karol Nawrocki, signifies a deepening nationalist sentiment in the country. Nawrocki's victory over centrist Prime Minister Donald Tusk points to a political landscape shaped by an entrenched conservative narrative. His administration is expected to obstruct crucial reforms, including those regarding judiciary changes and civil rights. The ruling coalition, previously united against the nationalist-conservative Law and Justice party (PiS), is showing signs of internal conflict, complicating its ability to present a cohesive alternative to voters.
Nawrocki's ascent marks a retreat in Polish politics, highlighting the entrenchment of nationalism and the hindrance of progressive reforms in the face of conservative power.
The nationalist-conservative Law and Justice party's full control has led to significant changes in Poland's judiciary and media, paving a path for Nawrocki's victory.
