World media comment on presidential elections in Poland. “Polish drama on the horizon” – write some. “It will be a choice between the reconstruction of democracy and the admiration for Trump,” says others. They also devote a lot of attention to the results of the extreme right. They emphasize how important the voices of these voters will be for the final result of the election.

Elections in Poland “resemble a referendum on Europeanness,” says the Portal of the ABC television station.

“Polish drama on the horizon” – we read in the Czech Denik N. “The extreme rightist in third place” – writes the German news diary Tagesschau. Such foreign media comment on the first round of presidential elections on the Vistula. The German “Die Welt” writes about the unexpected election night in Poland and draws attention to the fact that the candidate of the Civic Coalition won a smaller advantage than forecasted pre -election polls. “There are many indications that a national -conservative politician was able to mobilize his electorate better than Trzaskowski,” says the newspaper.

Poland will face the government crisis?

“If Nawrocki is elected president in the second round of elections, Poland will probably become in the face of a serious government crisis. This country works confidently and boldly in foreign policy, is the driving force of military support for Ukraine in Europe, it constantly demands exacerbation of sanctions against Russia and, which is not less important, is considered a model for imitation in NATO” – says “Die Welt.”

Western media pay attention not only to a small difference of votes between the two main candidates, but also to the high results of Sławomir Mentzen and Grzegorz Braun. According to the BBC, “this is a reason to worry for Rafał Trzaskowski.”

“Mentzen is an anti -stabland candidate and some of his supporters may not want to vote for either Nawrocki or Trzaskowski, who represent two parties dominating in Polish politics for two decades,” assesses the BBC portal.

Extremely different visions of the future of the country

The British press predicts that in the next two weeks candidates will fight for the votes of confederation voters and the Together party. According to the “Financial Times”, Rafał Trzaskowski “He faces the challenge of mobilizing progressive voters to participate in the second round, especially women.” “Guardian” emphasizes that “the second round will force voters to choose between extremely different visions of the future of the country.”

“Voters will have to choose between Trzaskowski's promises regarding the reform of judicial institutions and the reconstruction of democratic institutions, and the admiration of Nawrocki for Donald Trump, strong anti -immigration rhetoric and promises of dealing with liberal values” – indicates “Guardian”.

“We are strong – he wants to believe Trzaskowski. But Nawrocki is in a favorable situation,” says the French daily “Le Figaro”. Spanish media note that Poland will once again play a traditional duel between liberals and conservatives in the second round of presidential elections.

“The situation in Poland is part of political dichotomy, which with national nuances runs through Europe: a liberal camp, personifying Western values ​​and Europeanness, against ultra -conservative, nationalist and eurosceptic right” – indicates the Spanish “El Pais”.

The voices of Polonia

Foreign media emphasize that although the President of Poland has limited rights, he has the right to veto the laws adopted by parliament, of which Andrzej Duda He used many times. Czech media predict a sharp campaign before the second round of elections.

“If Karol Nawrocki became president, Tusk's government would probably have even worse relations with him than with Andrzej Duda. Unlike the current president, Nawrocki is anti -Ukrainian and anti -European, and it is likely that he would block governmental laws even more often” – indicates Denik Denik N.

Polonia's voices may have an impact on the result of the second round of presidential elections. In the first round, the most votes were cast in Great Britain, where Rafał Trzaskowski, Sławomir Mentzen and Grzegorz Braun took the first three places. The candidate of the Civic Coalition managed better in continental Europe, while Polonia voted in Karol Nawrocki. Canada and the United States. In general, the President of Warsaw won abroad, which was voted by less than 37 percent of voters.
