Jarosław Kaczyński excluded cooperation with 2 key Confederates factions before the parliamentary elections in 2027. PiS president criticized Sławomir Mentzen's fresh Hope and the Confederation of Polish Crown Grzegorz Braun as inappropriate coalition partners. His statements show deep divisions in the right-wing "patriot camp".
Kaczyński attacked the fresh Hope programme during a Monday gathering with Hungarian residents in Mazowsze. Mentzen's demands were «social Darwinism, utmost liberalism, which does not substance at all to the interests of average people». He added that “he does not see much chance to cooperate” with this formation.
Even more harshly, the president of the Law and Justice Office spoke about Grzegorz Braun and his Confederation of the Polish Crown. During Friday's briefing in the Sejm, he stated that the Euro MP “has far exceeded the limits that are impossible for politicians in our sphere of civilization”. Kaczyński expressed hope that Braun's group “will not be in parliament”.
Weapons and NATO as a dividing line
The Confederate of the Polish Crown Kaczyński called the “snake” for cooperation due to its position towards Western alliances and national security. During the gathering in Hungary, he stressed that between the PiS and Braun's group “there is simply a gap”. The vote for the Euro MP was described as “totally ineffective”.
PiS president categorically excluded Braun's supporters' participation in the future government. He pointed out that “the fresh government cannot be a government with the participation or support of Mr Braun’s supporters”.
Bosak the only acceptable partner
The only faction of the Confederation, with which the Law and Justice sees the anticipation of cooperation, is the Krzysztof Bosak National Movement. Kaczyński described the leader of this formation as a “young, promising policy”.
The president of PiS defined the "patriot camp" as encompassing the PiS and 3 confederations: the National Movement, the fresh Hope and the Confederation of the Polish Crown. However, he admitted that the camp is not united and subject to manipulation. During his speech in Węgrowo he said that the united patriotic camp «should win elections present in Poland without any peculiar difficulty».
The Turbulent past of Coalition Talks
In mid-2025, sources related to the PiS reported that the organization was looking for the Confederacy as a coalition partner. The Confederacy then defined the proposal of the Law and Justice as a “unimportant proposal” and “a game calculated to get the electorate of the group”.
Since mid-2025, politicians of both groups regularly criticized themselves in the media. In late December 2025, PiS and Confederate MPs discussed Karol Nawrock as a patron of the right-wing legislature Pact and possible post-election coalition.
Members of the Confederation, without excluding cooperation with the Confederation of the Polish Crown, stated at the end of December 2025 that the resumption of joint action within a single political group was “exclusible”.
