Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Donald Tusk Survives Confidence Vote Amid Political Headwinds
Caption: Donald Tusk Survives Confidence Vote Amid Political Headwinds. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has survived a parliamentary vote of confidence, securing 243 votes in favor to 210 against. The move comes after his centrist coalition suffered a major blow in the June 1 presidential election with nationalist Karol Nawrocki defeating Tusk’s preferred candidate, Rafał Trzaskowski. Despite retaining a solid parliamentary majority, Tusk now faces a tough road ahead. Nawrocki, set to take office in August, is aligned with the populist Law and Justice party and can veto government legislation. In his address, Tusk defended his record — citing economic growth, defense spending, and migration controls — and vowed to hold former PiS leaders accountable for alleged corruption. He also promised a cabinet reshuffle in July, though warned that governing under Nawrocki would be "extremely hard work" for the next two and a half years.
