An aide says Polish President Andrzej Duda will appoint a new prime minister following general elections last month in which the ruling right-wing party lost its parliamentary majority to three allied opposition parties
Polish President Andrzej Duda will appoint a new prime minister in a national address on Monday, an aide said. The announcement will trigger the process of forming a new government after general elections last month in which the ruling right-wing Law and Justice party lost its parliamentary majority to three allied opposition parties but emerged as the single biggest vote-getter. This has fed speculation over Duda's choice.
Under Poland's constitution, the president “designates” the prime minister and tasks him with forming a Cabinet, which then needs approval from the parliament. Only then are the prime minister and government formally appointed. If not, the procedure is repeated with another prime minister. Law and Justice will be far short of a majority in the new parliament and unable to pass its own laws.
