Karol Nawrocki, the candidate from the right-wing Law and Justice party, has won Poland’s presidential runoff election with 50.89% of the votes. His victory highlights a shift towards nationalistic and euroskeptic policies, particularly with his stated aim for a ‘Poland without migrants’. The election marks a significant defeat for his opponent Rafal Trzaskowski of the Civic Platform party, dealt by his support from various far-right factions. Nawrocki's win presents challenges for the ruling coalition under Prime Minister Donald Tusk, especially in terms of implementing reforms obstructed by the outgoing president.
Nawrocki's victory with 50.89% in the presidential runoff signals a shift toward right-wing policies in Poland, with an emphasis on nationalism and anti-migration.
We have succeeded in uniting the entire patriotic camp,” Nawrocki stated, underscoring his goal of achieving a ‘Poland without migrants’ as key to his agenda.
Trzaskowski's defeat represents a significant setback for the ruling coalition led by Tusk, suggesting challenges ahead for implementing reforms.
Nawrocki plans to pursue the obstructionist policies of President Duda, leveraging his position to impede government reforms under Tusk’s administration.
