How Karol Nawrocki won the Polish presidential election

3 weeks ago | rte.ie | Liam Nolan

A large cheer went up outside Warsaw's presidential palace after 9pm last night as the first two exit polls in the country's presidential election were released. Supporters of Rafal Trzaskowski, the capital's centrist mayor, thought that their candidate had won this closely-contested race. The polls gave Mr Trzaskowski a thin lead of between 0.3 and 0.6% of a percentage point, which made me think they were being too optimistic at that early stage of the night.
Poland's presidential election set for tight vote

4 weeks ago | rte.ie | Liam Nolan

Tomorrow, Polish voters will cast their ballots in a decisive second-round vote to decide whether centrist Rafal Trzaskowski or conservative Karol Nawrocki will become their next president. The past two weeks of campaigning have delivered a tight contest between two candidates from Poland's largest political camps: the centre-right Civic Platform and the nationalist-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party. But it was always likely to be that way.

1 month ago | rte.ie | Liam Nolan

Sunday's result from the first-round of voting in the Polish presidential election was not ideal for Rafal Trzaskowski, the centrist mayor of Warsaw, who has been the frontrunner throughout the campaign. For months, he had consistently polled between 4% and 7% ahead of his closest rival, conservative candidate Karol Nawrocki, who is endorsed by Law and Justice (PiS), a nationalist party that governed Poland between 2015 and 2023.
Romania's presidential election delivers surprise result

1 month ago | rte.ie | Liam Nolan

Few pollsters and analysts predicted even a week ago that Nicusor Dan, a quietly spoken mathematician and anti-corruption activist, had a serious chance of defeating far-right candidate George Simion in Romania's presidential election. But Mr Dan has done just that, and in resounding fashion. He won 54% of votes in yesterday's second round, with Mr Simion on 46%.
What to make of the Istanbul talks

1 month ago | rte.ie | Liam Nolan

A day later than expected, Russian and Ukrainian delegations met face-to-face in Istanbul yesterday for the first time in more than three years. But even before the talks took place, there were doubts over how much real progress could be achieved. Any hopes for a significant breakthrough were quickly deflated when Russia announced late on Wednesday night that it would send a team of deputy ministers led by former Russian culture minister Vladimir Medinsky.
