Warsaw Protesters Rally Behind Candidates Ahead of Runoff Election
Supporters of Poland’s presidential hopefuls took to the streets of Warsaw on Sunday, highlighting deep divisions in the nation ahead of a week-long runoff election. The polls are neck-and-neck between Rafal Trzaskowski and Karol Nawrocki, with Trzaskowski vying for support from pro-government groups and Nawrocki backed by the opposition Law & Justice party.
The outcome of the election will determine whether Poland’s economy can resist the surge of populism sweeping across the European Union. With its rapid growth rate, Poland is a key test case for EU policymakers.
