World: Poland, reeling from a lost president, could get his twin
- Poland is our great shared obligation. We are required to overcome our personal pain and to take on this mission despite the personal tragedy. That’s why I have taken the decision to run for the presidency of Poland.
- Jaroslaw Kaczynski • Regarding his decision to run for Polish president. Polls will open for the country in June, and Jaroslaw will run for the presidency that his brother Lech held until this month’s plane crash. He’s qualified for the job – along with Lech, he started up the far-right Law and Justice party. But he may not have a shot. Acting President Bronislaw Komorowski, a centrist, is currently polling far above Jaroslaw, despite sympathy for the Kaczynski family coming into play. source
