Decisive presidential elections in Poland in the middle of European anticipation …
Polish voters are voting in a decisive presidential election on Sunday, whose results are fateful for the future of the country’s intermediate government, as well as other questions such as abortion and homosexuality.
It is planned that the mayor of Warsaw, the European Union, Rafa Chaskovsky, will receive 30% of the votes, according to surveys, before the national historian Carroll Naorotsky, who will win 25% of the votes.
This would qualify them for the race on June 1 at a time of very sensitive to Europe, with the continuation of the Russian-Ukrainian war, the rise of populists on the right extremist and the tension of relations with Washington.
The polling stations opened their doors at seven in the morning (5:00 a.m. Greenwich Timing) and closed at nine o’clock in the evening (7:00 p.m. Greenwich time). The final results of the elections, in which 13 candidates contribute tomorrow, Monday.
Since the coalition of the former European Council, Donald Tusk, the authority in 2003, has been arrested by major government initiatives by national president André Doda, while some Poles hope that this immobility will be about to end.
The characteristics of the electoral campaign
The electoral campaign in Poland, a member of the European Union and NATO (NATO), was largely focused on foreign policy to reveal a variation in visions concerning the nature of Poland’s relations with the European Union and the United States.
But social problems have also played a major role because Chskovsky, 53, promised to support abortion and homosexual rights.
The Party of Law and Justice supported by Maurotsky, with repeated disputes with the Western allies of Poland and the institutions of the European Union in Brussels on the concerns linked to the rule of law, and the party lost power in 2023.
Naorotsky, 42, shows his admiration for Donald Trump and said that the American president told him when he had received it in the White House earlier this month “he would win”.
The key to the elections can arise if the supporters of Salavomer Mentin, the distant candidate who is ranked third with around 12% of the vote, will be dismissed with Naorotsky in the second round.
Mensintene doubts the European Union and firmly opposes abortion and migrants, and previously accused a million Ukrainian refugees in the country of use of Poland.
