Polish political alliance calls it quits, will run independently in 2027

The Third Way project is over after the Polish People’s Party (PSL) announced it will run independently in the 2027 elections, writes Do Rzeczy, citing sources who spoke to Gazeta Wyborcza.

Third Way had been an alliance between PSL and Szymon Hołownia’s Poland 2050.

“The parliamentary elections are only two years away. We don’t know what will happen before that. But we have to start preparing now,” a PSL politician told GW, adding that “party leaders have decided that we will go to the next elections under our own banner.”

Speaker of the Sejm and leader of Poland 2050 Szymon Hołownia confirmed: “We accept the decision of the Supreme Council of our coalition partner PSL on the actual end of the Third Way project with understanding and gratitude. Understanding, because we agreed on a series of four elections. Gratitude, because we have both kept our mutual obligations, and loyalty and trust are fundamental things in politics,” he wrote on X.

Just yesterday, Chair of PSL Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz, who also serves as the deputy prime minister of Poland and defense minister, posted on X upon receiving the first of 96 U.S. AH-64D Apache in Poland, which will strengthen the Polish military.

“This is not just modernization – it is a real change in Poland’s position in NATO. We are becoming a key pillar of security in the region,” he wrote.

For his part, Hołownia has also announced that the Poland 2050 party council will take place at the end of June and that the party remains committed to “working constructively with our partners in the fight for the ‘recovery’ of companies, the repair of public media, affordable and accessible housing, and the digital security of our children. 

Commenting further on their alliance with the current ruling government under PM Donald Tusk, he said: “In the renewed government of the 15.10 Coalition, we will be advocates of bold development. And the prospect of running independently in the next elections gives us a sense of sincere political joy today.”

A couple of weeks ago, after Tusk’s candidate for president lost to the conservatives, Hołownia warned that the coalition is set to lose the Polish electorate by the fall if action is not taken and that the government could collapse.
