In the lead-up to Poland's presidential election, main contenders Rafal Trzaskowski of the Civic Platform and Karol Nawrocki, aligned with the Law and Justice party, engage in contentious debates. Both candidates present anti-migrant sentiments, albeit from differing views on the EU. Trzaskowski emphasizes honesty and decency at his rallies, while Nawrocki faces controversy over a real estate transaction involving elderly care. The election holds significant stakes, especially in light of Ukraine's conflict with Russia, where presidential cooperation is crucial for implementing reforms.
Looking visibly tired at his rally on Tuesday, Rafal Trzaskowski of the ruling centre-right Civic Platform, stood on a platform at Krakow's central Market Square amid a large crowd cheering his name, blue European flags fluttering beside the white-and-red Polish ones.
I didn't think it would be necessary to remind all of us, especially my main competitor, that honesty is the most important thing, human decency is the most important thing, and selflessness is the most important thing.
Nawrocki has said he will donate the flat to charity and pointed out that under Trzaskowski's mayorship, families had been evicted from state accommodation in Warsaw.
The winner will take over from current President Andrzej Duda, of the nationalist conservative Law and Justice party, at a crucial point when neighbouring Ukraine is battling Russia.
