I'm a bit late to this party, but yay! Elections in Poland result in a shift away from far right government, back towards democracy, as well as support for Ukraine.

It's difficult to overstate how crucial Poland is for Ukraine. Poland is THE staging point through which aid flows into Ukraine, and through which Ukrainian refugees can go. Poland also has military bases suitable for repair and supply of NATO military vehicles, including F-16 jets that will soon be supplied to Ukraine.

#Poland's liberal opposition on Monday celebrated exit polls showing it had won a parliamentary majority in the weekend #elections, paving the way for potentially huge change after eight years of nationalist rule ➡️ http://u.afp.com/54kp

This is going to change the extreme religious laws pushed by previous government? Because there is 0 chance that they charge their racist imigration policies or their push for militarism.

Good day, sunshine....

And ... Congratulations, Poland!

If exit polls in Poland’s parliamentary election are accurate, the country has backed away from its anti-democratic and anti-EU stance. The opposition led by Donald Tusk will be able to form a stable governing coalition, with enormous consequences for the EU and Ukraine aid. - Source: https://www.gmfus.org/news/exit-right-polish-election-appears-herald-seismic-political-shift

Good news! Far-Right Party, PIS. Loses in Poland!!*

Polish opposition leader Donald Tusk declared a win after exit poll shows ruling conservatives lose majority.
"Poland won. Democracy has won. We have removed them from power,” Tusk told his cheering supporters.
This result might still be better, but already today we can say this is the end of the bad time, this is end of Law and Justice rule,” Tusk added.

Allies in discord: Roots of recent quarrel between Poland and Ukraine

When Russia launched a full-scale invasion, Poland took the initiative to provide weapons to Ukraine and called on others to do the same.

Poland's people and government hosted millions of Ukrainian refugees. At times, the relationship looked nigh-unbreakable, but a scandal over grain amplified by aggressive rhetoric exposed the rift between both countries.

A dozen experts and stakeholders from Poland and Ukraine interviewed by the Kyiv Independent believe Poland will continue to support Ukraine against Russia.
