Nawrocki: Nationalist historian vying for Polish presidency ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

Nawrocki has been endorsed by the right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) party, which governed Poland from 2015 to 2023.

Nawrocki campaigned under the slogan “Poland first, Poles first”.

He said in a campaign video in April that “social benefits will be above all for Poles” and that “in queues for doctors and clinics, Polish citizens must have priority”.

He opposes Ukraine’s bid to join NATO.

Nawrocki is an admirer of Donald Trump and has said Poland should focus on shaping and leading Europe’s relations with the US president.

Some lawmakers from the governing coalition have accused Trump of election interference.

Nawrocki has called for controls on the border with Germany to keep out migrants, and would like Berlin to pay wartime reparations to Poland.

The election campaign saw Nawrocki embroiled in a series of scandals.

A bombshell news report also alleged he had arranged prostitutes for guests while working as a hotel security guard.

Born in the Baltic port city of Gdansk, Nawrocki boxed and played football in his youth before earning a PhD in history and an MBA.

His research focuses on Poland’s anti-communist opposition, organised crime during the communist era and sports history.

Nawrocki said he obtained a gun licence and firearm after winding up in Russia’s crosshairs.

Nawrocki has written several books, including one under a pen name that landed him in an unusual controversy.

That same year, a blurred and voice-altered “Batyr” appeared on state television claiming Nawrocki had inspired the book.

But local media recently uncovered that Batyr and Nawrocki were one and the same.

Political opponents seized on the revelation.

“No one has ever heard a good word from me about Nazism,“ he said.

He lives with his wife, Marta, and has two children and an adult stepson.
