US Republican Lawmakers Complain to EU About "Rigged" Polish Elections
- On June 1, 2025, Poland holds a tightly contested presidential runoff in Warsaw between conservative Karol Nawrocki and centrist Rafał Trzaskowski.
- A group of US Republican lawmakers sent a letter to the head of the European Commission expressing concerns that the coalition led by Donald Tusk is withholding public campaign funds from Karol Nawrocki and allowing foreign-financed advertisements supporting Rafał Trzaskowski.
- The letter questions the role of a Vienna-based firm linked to US Democratic operatives behind about $105,000 in alleged illicit Facebook ads supporting Trzaskowski and cites withheld funds worth over $150 billion related to earlier rule-of-law disputes.
- The head of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, Brian Mast, warned that inconsistent application of rules threatens the EU’s reputation as a defender of democratic values, and he requested detailed information regarding alleged discrepancies in the EU’s treatment of Poland.
- These developments have raised concerns about fairness and electoral integrity in Poland, with observers noting the European Commission’s silence amid reported actions favoring Trzaskowski ahead of the presidential vote.
