Although PiS won the elections, it lost its parliamentary majority and all other parties have ruled out working with it.

President Andrzej Duda has announced that he will give current Prime Minister Mateusz Morawicki and his national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party, which has ruled Poland since 2015, the first opportunity to form a new government.

    Viktor Klima was never a president in Austria, he was Chancelor. President back then was Thomas Klestil.

    And the situation was different, there was a realistic chance for the SPÖ to form a government, as they had a majority together with their former coalition partner (who rather made a goverment with the radical-right then)

    In Poland, PiS has no chance whatsoever to form a government, as three opposition parties have a majority and publicly stated that they will form a government together. So, its just Duda giving his buddies another month to be corrupt and hide/cleanup what they have done.
