Firmly Back on the EU Track: Bulgaria’s Odd Coalition Repels Russian Influence
23 November 2023
A swing towards a pro-European majority in Poland after the 15 October elections gives hope that the next government will engage constructively with Germany and France on the difficult issue of further EU enlargement, argues Sylvie Kauffmann in an interview with Visegrad Insight.
Wojciech Przybylski asked Sylvie Kauffmann, foreign affairs columnist at Le Monde, about the impact of a change in government in Poland on relations with France and Europe.
Wojciech Przybylski: Being so savvy regarding Central European politics and Poland, I wanted to ask how you reacted to the Polish elections and the opposition winning a majority.
Sylvie Kauffmann: I was surprised like I think probably most of us were.
