Tusk's government faces confidence vote in Poland's parliament

Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk faces a confidence vote in parliament today, potentially leading to the collapse of his government following the recent presidential election. A new election could result in a right-wing nationalist government. The election of right-wing populist Karol Nawrocki as president on June 1st has weakened Tusk's government, which already faced low approval ratings. Tusk's coalition government, formed in 2023, has struggled to fulfill key promises, and a loss in the confidence vote could trigger early elections. Nawrocki, who assumes office in August, is expected to hinder Tusk's reforms. The outcome of the vote and the potential for early elections will significantly impact Poland's political direction and its role in Europe.
