Earlier in the day, the Polish lower house, Sejm, voted no confidence in Mateusz Morawiecki's government in a 266-190 vote. The parliament nominated former President of the European Council Donald Tusk for prime minister shortly later.
"At the invitation of Polish President Andrzej Duda and Sejm’s approval, a meeting with Prime Minister Donald Tusk took place. It has been decided that after receiving the vote of confidence, the new government will be sworn in on Wednesday at 9 a.m. [08:00 GMT] at the presidential palace," Ignaczak-Bandych wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Tusk is now to propose its own set of the cabinet. Once Tusk's government is sworn in, he will have two weeks to deliver a keynote speech to the parliament, which will then consider passing a vote of confidence or no confidence in him.
If Tusk receives a vote of no confidence as well, the Polish president will be entitled to choose a new candidate for prime minister himself.
