Election as a sign of political maturity
The results of the Polish presidential election testify to Poland's political maturity, the left-liberal daily La Repubblica writes: "Poland remains European and modern. Twenty-one years after the democratic revolution that brought the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet empire Warsaw is sending the world a message of hope, ... a message of maturity and political commitment. ... The voters have ignored the Church's advice. It had given to understand that it preferred the national-conservative challenger and is now being forced to recognise the limits of its power in this new Poland. ... The young, liberal Prime Minister Donald Tusk, the preferred dialogue partner of the 'new Europe' now has free rein. He no longer need fear that a Kaczyński will obstruct his modernising reforms."
