The results of the 2025 presidential election confirm Karol Nawrocki's victory, which won 50.89% of the vote, while Rafał Trzaskowski gained 49.11%. The turnout was 71.63%, which shows the immense engagement of Poles. erstwhile president Bronisław Komorowski leaves no illusions – the Civic Coalition run failed and Donald Tusk's government's future is in dark colors.
A conservative electorate ignored?
Komorowski in an interview with RMF FM indicated that KO staff did not care adequate about the vote of voters about conservative views.
– There were signals that Tusk understood the request for moderately conservative voices. I was hoping this would continue. It is impossible in Poland to win elections without referring to those who are more traditional, item the sphere of religion and are a bit distrustful of European integration said the erstwhile president.
According to Komorowski, Nawrocki's run was based on his apolitical image, which could have been crucial.
Cohabitation and political chaos – What next with the Tusk government?
Komorowski has no uncertainty – we are facing a hard 2 years.
– Two years of very hard waiting, due to the fact that at the same time the preparations for parliamentary elections will continue – he said.
Will Nawrocks be independent? The erstwhile president has doubts:
– I'm not certain Charles Nawrocki can become independent. I'm not certain he will. We face the hazard of lost years, a broken opinion about Poland outside and chaos in the country.
According to Komorowski, the government can survive, but in mediocre condition. The decisions of Tusk and PiS will be crucial:
– If Donald Tusk finds in his calculations that the hazard is worth his while, he can decide on an earlier election. akin calculations will take place on the another side of the political scene, in PiS.
What about Trzaskowski? Komorowski sees no chance of a 3rd candidacy
Komorowski appreciates Trzaskowski's determination, but does not believe in his next start.
– I admire Rafał Trzaskowski for having decided to run again after losing the first presidential election. I don't think doing this 3rd time in a row is an option.
The erstwhile president underlines that the Law and Justice organization has won the presidential election for the 3rd time in a row, which should prompt the opposition to reflect on the future candidate.
Will the Tusk government survive? Will Nawrocki prove independent? The political conflict is only just beginning, and Komorowski's words announce stormy months.
