Right-wing conservative Karol Nawrocki narrowly won Poland's presidential runoff with 50.89% of the vote, defeating pro-European Rafal Trzaskowski. Nawrocki, backed by the Law and Justice party, campaigned on a platform opposing migration. His win is a significant setback for Prime Minister Donald Tusk's government. Nawrocki's eurosceptic views and plans to obstruct government reforms raise concerns about Poland's future relationship with the EU and NATO. Despite several scandals, Nawrocki's campaign successfully garnered support from various right-wing factions.
