# Kaczynski Proposes Unified Right-Wing Electoral List for Polish Parliament Jaroslaw Kaczynski seeks a broad right-wing coalition, but Confederation leaders remain skeptical of cooperation. - **Source:** [TVN24](https://tvn24.pl) - **Published:** 2026-11-11 - **Topic:** [politics](https://brifing.si/c/politics) - **Original article:** - **On Brifing:** https://brifing.si/s/71c5e118-7f1b-4fbd-81ca-216e0036277d ## Unified Right-Wing Strategy Jaroslaw Kaczynski, leader of the Law and Justice party, announced intentions to form a single, unified electoral list for the Polish Sejm. While previous discussions focused on the Senate, Kaczynski now aims to expand this coalition to the lower house, seeking to consolidate various right-wing political factions for future elections. ## Independence Day March Context The proposal emerged during the annual Independence Day march, which featured participants from both PiS and the Confederation party. Kaczynski acknowledged that while the event serves as a significant platform for political visibility, it is not an ideal environment for formal negotiations between the distinct right-wing groups involved there. ## Internal Confederation Divisions Kaczynski characterized the Confederation party as being composed of three distinct factions, suggesting that PiS must persuade each group individually to secure a coalition. He explicitly excluded Grzegorz Braun from his vision of a unified front, indicating that the path to a broader alliance remains complex and highly selective. ## Confederation Party Response Despite Kaczynski's public overtures, the Confederation party has shown little interest in forming a joint list with Law and Justice. While PiS candidate Przemyslaw Czarnek has publicly appealed to Confederation leaders Krzysztof Bosak and Slawomir Mentzen to build a powerful right-wing force, the party maintains a resistant stance. ## Visual Signs of Friction Tensions were highlighted when Slawomir Mentzen posted a photo on social media showing a banner that featured crossed-out faces of both Donald Tusk and Jaroslaw Kaczynski. This visual protest, labeled with the word 'reset', underscores the ideological distance and mutual skepticism that currently persist between the two major right-wing camps. ## Historical Political Barriers Kaczynski noted that organizers of the Independence Day march previously excluded PiS members for many years, creating a strained relationship. Although access to the march was granted this year, Kaczynski admitted that a true breakthrough in relations between his party and the nationalist organizers has not yet been fully achieved. ## Presidential Role Speculation Discussions regarding a potential right-wing alliance have frequently centered on the Senate, with President Karol Nawrocki often mentioned as a potential patron for a joint effort. While Kaczynski views the Senate as having less significance than the Sejm, the presidential involvement remains a key element in these ongoing political calculations. ## Future Electoral Outlook Kaczynski views the current political climate as the beginning of a new campaign cycle. As Krzysztof Bosak calls for a unified, pro-Polish government, the feasibility of a formal coalition remains uncertain. The success of this strategy depends on bridging deep ideological gaps and overcoming the current reluctance of potential partners. ## Sources covering this story - [TVN24 — Kaczynski Proposes Unified Right-Wing Electoral List for Polish Parliament](https://tvn24.pl/polska/prezes-pis-na-marszu-o-jednej-wielkiej-liscie-wymowny-baner-we-wpisie-lidera-konfederacji-st9334456?source=rss) - [Gazeta Wyborcza — Kaczynski Proposes Right-Wing Coalition with Confederation Party](https://wyborcza.pl/7,75398,33129236,kaczynski-przymila-sie-do-konfederacji-takze-w-sprawie-wspolnej.html) --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
