Janusz Korwin-Mikke, former member of the Sejm and leader of KORWiN, announces plans to form a new political party called ‘KonFed’ as recent attempts at merging with Grzegorz Braun’s Konfederacja Korony Polskiej falter.
Korwin-Mikke’s New Confederation
Former Sejm member Janusz Korwin-Mikke is moving forward with plans for a new political party called ‘KonFed’ following unsuccessful attempts at merging with Grzegorz Braun’s Konfederacja Korony Polskiej.
Behind the Name
The new party’s name, KonFed, stands for ‘Konfederacja-Federacja,’ but Korwin-Mikke has remained tight-lipped about party members and details, citing security concerns.
Rumored Mergers and Splitting of Right-wing Parties
Reports of a merger between Korwin-Mikke’s faction and Braun’s party have been circulating, under the alleged name ‘KoBra.’ However, the plan appears to have stalled, with Braun opting to run independently in the presidential elections.
Future Plans and Strategic Goals
Korwin-Mikke is aiming to form a “parasol party” to gather smaller right-wing groups and parties, potentially enabling them to bypass the 8% electoral threshold required for coalitions. The new confederation would see Korwin-Mikke attempt a comeback in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
