Polish Election: Far-right populist party loses ground
The recent Polish election saw a record turnout of 74%, the highest since the fall of Communism. Despite receiving the most votes, the right-wing Law and Justice party is set to lose power as it is unable to form a coalition. The centrist Civic Coalition party, led by Donald Tusk, is now expected to lead the new government. This is seen as a positive moment amidst a time of global right-wing populism, offering hope for a more centrist and inclusive direction in Polish politics.
