The contest is being seen as battle between pro-EU and liberal values and nationalist conservatism. The two candidates who will vie for the Polish presidency in June 1 runoff elections led rival marches in the capital, Warsaw, on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>One march was headed by Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski, who has voiced support for abortion and LGBTQ+ rights, and the other by Karol Nawrocki, a conservative historian whose backers believe he stands for conservative values and holds an anti-abortion position.<\/p>\n<p>The vote comes as incumbent conservative President Andrzej Duda is due to leave office in summer when his second and final five-year term ends. Trzaskowski&#8217;s march was also attended by newly elected Romanian President Nicusor Dan, a pro-EU politician who defeated far-right challenger George Simion late last week.<\/p>\n<p><em>What do we know about the rival candidates?<\/em><br \/>\nTrzaskowski called his rally a &#8221;March of Patriots,&#8221; while Nawrocki&#8217;s followers held a &#8221;March for Poland.&#8221; Recent polls have shown that the election is likely to be closely fought, with both candidates enjoying 47% support. The election could have a great influence on the political direction taken by Poland, as the president has enough powers to block any government&#8217;s agenda. Duda is backed the nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party, which held power in Poland for eight years from 2015 to 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Duda has used his presidential veto to stop many of the bills put forward by reformist Prime Minister Donald Tusk&#8217;s government, including attempts to reform the judiciary. Tusk came to power in 2023 under a broad coalition of center-left and centrist parties and has pledged to undo policies enacted by PiS that had been criticized by the EU for undermining rule of law and minority rights.<\/p>\n<p>Trazaskowski, who is backed by Tusk&#8217;s ruling Civic Coalition alliance, received the most votes in last Sunday&#8217;s first round with 31.36% support. Nawrocki, who is backed by the PiS party, won 29.54% of votes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/poles-march-in-warsaw-to-back-rival-presidential-candidates\/a-72663249\">DW<\/a><br \/>\n[\/newsletter_lock]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/poles-march-in-warsaw-to-back-rival-presidential-candidates\/\">Poles march in Warsaw to back rival presidential candidates<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22,1],"tags":[555,18907,9274,655],"class_list":["post-140196","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-yleinen","tag-csr-news-en","tag-poles-march","tag-warsaw","tag-yleinen"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140196","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140196"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140196\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140196"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140196"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140196"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
