Karol Nawrocki has won the race to be the next President of Poland. It follows a tense campaign, where the far-right Nawrocki was often labelled (by both critics and supporters) ‘the Polish Trump’. So who is the relative newcomer, how big was the margin, and what does this mean for Donald Tusk, the Prime Minister of Poland with a steadfast commitment to a united Europe?
Rohan Venkat and Emily Tamkin are joined by Anna Gielewska, co-founder and editor-in-chief of VSquare and co-founder of Polish investigative outlet FRONTSTORY.PL
