Von der
Leyen expects 'very good cooperation' with Poland's new president Nawrocki
President of
the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen has said she expects “very good
cooperation” to continue between the EU and Poland under the presidency of
newly elected Karol Nawrocki.
In a post on
X, formerly Twitter, she said:
I’m
confident that the EU will continue its very good cooperation with Poland. We
are all stronger together in our community of peace, democracy, and values. So
let us work to ensure the security and prosperity of our common home.
Poland’s
electoral commission said early on Monday that Nawrocki won with 50.89% of the
votes, beating Rafal Trzaskowski, the liberal Warsaw mayor and ally of Donald
Tusk’s Polish government.

Karol
Nawrocki’s victory is a “fresh victory for [European] patriots”, Hungarian
foreign minister Peter Szijjarto has said on his Facebook page.
Hungarian
prime minister Viktor Orbán, also an ally of Donald Trump, championed Nawrocki
at last week’s CPAC conference on Thursday. CPAC is the US’ biggest
conservative gathering.
As we
reported earlier, the US secretary of homeland security, Kristi Noem, also
backed Nawrocki at the conference.
