Polish President Unlikely to Block Tusk’s Appointment as PM
1 December 2023
As Prime Minister Kaja Kallas won victory after victory abroad, her party has lost its coalition partner at home and could lose the government.
On Friday, Estonia’s Prime Minister Kaja Kallas put an end to weeks of bickering between the coalition parties and proposed to the president to dismiss seven ministers from the Centre Party. Their tasks were taken over by the ministers of the Reform Party until a new government is formed. Several of the ministers found out about their dismissal from the media.

However, the prime minister’s latest step was just the final escalation in the quarrel that has made the government almost unworkable in the past few weeks. When viewing a longer perspective, the relations between the coalition parties have been bad at least since the energy price crisis in the winter, and perhaps were never good to begin with. The only reason the government still stood was maths — the size and make-up of the parties in the parliament does not allow for many alternatives.
