Poland's President Andrzej Duda last night nominated Mateusz Morawiecki, the current prime minister from the ruling nationalist-populist Law and Justice party, to form the country's new government.
Law and Justice won 194 seats, the largest number of any party but fell 37 seats short of a majority in the 460-seat Polish parliament. Mr Tusk was previously Poland's prime minister from 2007 to 2014 and President of the European Council from 2014 to 2019. Poland’s parliament will assemble on 13 November and Law and Justice will have 14 days to win a vote of confidence in favour of Mr Morawiecki’s nomination as prime minister.The opposition bloc will oppose Mr Morawiecki’s nomination and subsequently propose Mr Tusk as their candidate to form a government.
