Poland's "MAGA President"
Poland has swung to the right with the election of Karol Nawrocki as President. Nawroscki is a huge fan of Donald Trump and even flew to the
White House during the election to get a thumbs up from his hero in the Oval Office.
He represents the conservative Law and Justice Party which lost power in the parliamentary elections 18 months ago to Donald Tusk’s more
liberal Civic Platform. Tusk was previously president of the European Council, and had pledged to remove political influence from the judiciary and liberalise Poland’s strict abortion laws.
Now though, he could find his legislation vetoed by Nawrocki,
who also opposes EU policies on climate change and migration.
Adrian Goldberg is joined by Bartosz Rydlinski, a political scientist based
in Warsaw, and Anna Alboth, a Polish journalist currently living in Berlin.
Produced in Birmingham by Adrian Goldberg and Harvey White.
