Public opinion in Poland shows varied perspectives on the nation’s international standing and security. In late August 2026, polling indicated a divided populace regarding Poland’s global position, with 33.1% believing it had improved and 27.3% believing it had worsened. While 73.4% of the population reported feeling that Poland is a safe country, views on historical grievances remain high, with 73.9% of Poles believing Germany should pay war reparations for World War II. Domestic political sentiment remains highly polarized. By mid-October 2026, Koalicja Obywatelska (KO) maintained a lead, but its margin over Prawo i Sprawiedliwość (PiS) had narrowed. Recent polling in late October indicates further shifts in the parliamentary landscape. KO remains the leading party with support between 27.8% and 29.7%, followed by PiS at approximately 17.2% to 19.1%. Konfederacja holds the third position, though Grzegzes Braun’s Konfederacja Korony Polskiej is seeing notable growth, polling around 10% to 11.4%. Projections suggest the current governing coalition—comprising KO, Lewica, and PSL—may struggle to maintain a majority in the Sejm. This instability is reflected in declining approval for the administration. In late September 2026, an OGB survey for Polsat News and Newsmax Polska found that 47% of respondents rated the government poorly, with “disappointment” (24.8%) being the most common associated emotion. Additionally, a Pollster Institute study suggested 53% of respondents rated Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s performance negatively. A dispute between the President and the Prime Minister continues to divide the public. A CBOS trust ranking from late October indicates President Karol Nawrocki maintains his position as the most trusted politician, with 53% of respondents expressing trust. In contrast, Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski (44%) and Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz (42%) also hold significant trust, while Prime Minister Tusk saw lower figures, with 36% expressing trust and 51% expressing distrust. By late October 2026, political criticism intensified regarding the Tusk administration’s management of the judiciary and the Constitutional Tribunal.
