Nationalist candidate backed by Trump wins Polish presidency

Poland's conservative nationalist Karol Nawrocki won the presidential runoff, marking a significant shift toward right-wing nationalism amid growing disillusionment with centrist Prime Minister Donald Tusk and underscoring broader European trends where far-right movements are gaining momentum, influenced by former President Trump. The election highlights Poland's deepening political divide and its potential rise to a far-right administration, reflecting generational divides with older voters favoring the center while younger generations lean toward more radical alternatives.
