Poland launches new national branding office as opposition split deepens in parliament
Poland has created a new post of commissioner for promotion of the Poland brand and appointed marketing expert Barbara Mróz‑Gorgoń to develop a unified strategy for tourism, Polish products and foreign investment. The government says the role will coordinate existing funds more coherently and improve the country's international reputation.
At the same time, former prime minister Mateusz Morawiecki announced the formation of a parliamentary caucus of 40 MPs and one senator. The group would become the third‑largest bloc in the Sejm, signalling a serious internal division within the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party. PiS chairman Jarosław Kaczyński described the move as a planned split, while Morawiecki framed it as a “second lung” for the broader political camp.
Both developments highlight a period of political re‑organisation in Poland, with the new branding effort aimed at boosting the nation’s global image and the opposition split potentially reshaping parliamentary dynamics.
