Thousands attend an anti-government rally organized by Poland’s main opposition party
WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Thousands of people have attended an anti-government rally organized by Poland’s nationalist conservative opposition party to boost support before next year’s presidential election. Law and Justice leader Jaroslaw Kaczynski called on supporters to be active at social and political levels and to back the party’s candidate in next year’s presidential election. He hasn’t yet named the candidate. Kaczynski also accused the pro-European Union government of acting against the nation’s interests and violating its laws and cited recently opened investigations into allegations of mismanagement and corruption of the Law and Justice government. Up to 4,000 people with national white-and-red flags gathered for the rally held in windy weather outside the Justice Ministry in Warsaw on Saturday.
