On Sunday October 15th, Poland went to the polls to elect a new government. As one of Europe’s most significant economic motors and a key spokesperson for Eastern Europe more generally, many saw this election as a barometer for where the world stands in the global battle between liberal and populist political movements. And more than that, as the logistics hub for the war in Ukraine, the result was also seen as vital for the strategic future of the war in Ukraine. So would the far right parties intent on a fractious relationship with Ukraine and the West win? Or would the liberal, pro-European parties come together to defeat the incumbent government? To find out the results and more about just how vital these elections are, this week on Power Lines we speak with Jakub Górnicki, a journalist and the co-founder of Outriders, a news organisation who write about global issues for a Polish audience. We discuss the results of the elections, their significance for Ukraine and for the world more generally.
