The West’s political divide hardens. But Poland shows that’s no cause for despair.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Prime Minister Donald Tusk said Tuesday that Poland’s parliament will hold a confidence vote on his government on June 11, as the country faces a “new political reality.” He called for the vote after his political ally, the liberal Warsaw mayor, lost Poland’s weekend presidential election to conservative Karol Nawrocki.

Karol Nawrocki, a right-wing nationalist, flipped exit poll results and defeated Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski.

Poland’s stock market has outperformed many of its European peers, but with a newly-elected populist President at odds with a Liberal government, what lies ahead?

Poles elect their president on Sunday in the biggest test yet of whether Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s pro-European agenda is going to prevail against the surge of the country’s nationalist forces.
