1 month agoKarol Nawrocki: Conservative Historian Wins Poland's Presidential Election With Trump Playbook
Nawrocki will take a firm stance against Russia's imperial ambitions. He is a strong supporter of NATO and the alliance with the United States, and he will continue Poland's active role in the region. He will also back Ukraine in its fight against Russia. However, his victory is also partly a reaction to [Ukrainian] President Zelenskyy's public disrespect toward [outgoing Polish] President [Andrzej] Duda—especially his 2023 speech at the UN General Assembly, where he compared Poland to Russia. For Nawrocki's voters, that was unacceptable.
