Polen: Das Ende der Ära Kaczynski: Die Macht des polnischen Schattenherrschers schwindet
Mit seiner radikalen Linie und dem Führungsanspruch kontrolliert Jaroslaw Kaczynski seit einem Vierteljahrhundert Polens rechtes Lager. Das könnte sich jetzt ändern – selbst verschuldet.
Wien - Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the architect of Poland's national conservative party PiS, risks seeing his decades-long political legacy unravel. Once able to secure at least a third of the electorate, surveys now indicate a decline in voter support for the party, with some outlets reporting figures below 20 percent for PiS, the largest parliamentary faction.
This does not necessarily signal a deterioration in right-wing prospects for elections in a year's time. Opposition parties continue to maintain a clear majority against Donald Tusk's unpopular coalition government. However, various right-of-center groups are no longer rallying behind PiS, which for now is merely one party among many in a highly fragmented political landscape.
The crisis is self-inflicted, with much of the blame resting on the 77-year-old Kaczynski's personality.
