The Parliament eventually decided not to dissolve itself, which had long been expected by the financial markets. PiS chairman Jaroslaw Kaczynski and the PO leader Donald Tusk struck a conciliatory tone in the debate preceding the dissolution vote in the Sejm. The liberals offered to work with the ruling conservatives on key legislation, at least until Autumn, in an attempt to dissuade the PiS from entering into a coalition with the left-wing populists from Samoobrona. Taking a closer look, this is basically the same offer which was turned down by Kaczynski earlier this week. The statement of Samoobrona leader Andrzej Lepper indicated that any potential agreement about the participation of this party in the government hadn’t been reach yet and was far from certain. It seems that there are roughly equal chances for a continuation of the recently played, by the PiS, “changing majority game” and for a formal settlement with populists about their role in the government.
