Donald Tusk, the Polish Prime Minister, won a confidence vote in the lower house of parliament with 243 votes in favor and 210 against. He initiated the vote to dispel speculation about his government's stability following the presidential election. Tusk emphasized the need to regain voter sympathy and mentioned the challenges posed by the opposition party, PiS, and its candidate, Karol Nawrocki, who won the presidential election. Tusk's coalition aims to reverse controversial policies from the previous PiS government, including judicial reforms and LGBTQ+ rights. However, former President Andrzej Duda has been blocking key reforms with his veto power. Tusk announced a 'state of emergency plan' to navigate the new political landscape, indicating readiness to govern despite potential opposition from Nawrocki. Teljes cikk (Telex.hu)
