US EditionPolish centrist candidate Trzaskowski says he won presidential election
- Liberal Warsaw Mayor Rafał Trzaskowski claimed victory in Poland's June 1, 2025, presidential runoff against conservative Karol Nawrocki.
- The election followed a tightly contested first round on May 18 and a campaign marked by scandals, deep social divisions, and Russia's war in Ukraine.
- Both candidates pledged continued aid to Ukraine and defense spending, while Trzaskowski supports eventual NATO membership for Ukraine and easing abortion laws, contrasting Nawrocki's nationalist, socially conservative stance.
- Exit polls showed Trzaskowski narrowly ahead with 50.3% versus Nawrocki's 49.7%, but the margin was within the ±2–3% poll error, and both claimed victory amid record 73% turnout.
- The final official result, expected Monday, will influence Poland's political direction, affect Prime Minister Tusk's centrist reforms, and reflect polarized views on nationalism and European integration.
