RTVS | What does the liberal bloc's parliamentary election victory mean for Poland and the EU?

November 21, 2023

More than a month ago, Poland held parliamentary elections. The Liberal bloc won a majority and was charged with forming a government. Our Deputy Director, Viktor Daněk, answers questions about the significance of this dramatic change for Poland and the EU.

"The result of the Polish elections shows that what Law and Justice has been doing is actually to some extent a successful policy in terms of mobilising the electorate, because after eight years of governing, to still have such a high result is saying something."

You can listen to the whole debate here.
