Just over four weeks after the elections in Poland, the incumbent national-conservative government of Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has resigned as expected, Ednews informs, citing foreign media sources.

The 460 members of parliament had previously been sworn in at the constituent meeting of the new parliament in Warsaw.

In the election on October 15, an opposition alliance of three parties led by former European Council President Donald Tusk won a clear majority. Although the former national conservative governing party PiS became the strongest force in parliament in the election with 194 seats, it fell short of an absolute majority and has no coalition partner.

Nevertheless, President Andrzej Duda intends to appoint PiS politician Morawiecki to form a government again this evening, as announced by his office. The opposition accuses Duda of wanting to delay the transition of power. As Morawiecki will not receive a majority in parliament for his new cabinet, his mission is doomed to failure. Only then would it be the turn of the current opposition to form a government.
