Leading Polish candidates are gearing up for a debate Monday evening where they hope to sway undecided voters six days before a national election that many Poles believe is the most important once since communism was toppled.
The debate will be broadcast starting at 6:30 p.m. by public broadcaster TVP, which is obligated by law to conduct such debates.Since the Law and Justice party won power in 2015, it has used TVP as a mouthpiece praising its own policies and people, and vilifying the opposition, most notably Tusk. Tusk and his allies accuse Kaczynski of eroding the democratic foundations of the country by taking control of the judiciary branch and public media, and putting the country on a path that could lead out of the European Union. Law and Justice insists it has no intention to leave the EU. It is running on promises to safeguard the country’s security after having built a tall wall on the border with Belarus to keep out migrants.
