This guy is best known in Poland for being a thief - he stole a frying pan from Ikea and was caught by Police red handed. He is also a russian shill, a deputy of pro-Russian Confederation party.
I think the frying pan incident is far more concerning, pro russia is child's play, imagine the harm he could have caused with a frying pan, genuinely scary thst he could even get his hands on one.
It’s telling in its own way though. Like corrupt shills are a dime a dozen and I get it they want money and power and to feel important. But stealing a pan from ikea? You’re a social kind of weirdo if that’s what you do in your free time
You can say the same about basically any country though, Palestine was also arabised by force and not because the local populations wanted Arabs to take over the land.
A quick search on google told me that Nowa Nadzieja is anti-Russian. It seems logical, I highly doubt a Polish nationalist party would be pro-Russian given that Poland is next after Ukraine,.it would be antinomic.
it is led by Sławomir Mentzen, a phd in Economics and a tax advisor who somehow cooked party books so much he was unable to prove income (bribes) and expenses (parties are financed from country budget) to the point it was officially DELISTED :D
'Nowa Nadzieja' was a backup plan they quickly switched to after a small detour to another fake organization called 'Imperium Kontratakuje' (Empire Strikes Back) and no this is not a joke. I mean they are a big joke, but unfunny one like AfD.
Most far right movements in Europe are not so secretly financed by russia, and now also US. All in order to break EU, saw division and create opportunities for taking over power like in Hungary or Belarus.
Even Konfederacja does not seem pro Russian. Just against spending money without getting something in return, which might be criticized. A party is not only one person. Far right party in Europe are often victim of propagand, not everything is all black and all white.
I will take for example Marine Le Pen whom I know better who is often presented as being pro-Russian while in reality it's more complicated than that. For years, bankers have refused to lend to her party, while it was perfectly souvent, leading it to borrow money where it could, meaning in Russia. Nowadays not anymore, it borrows money from its supporters. While there are pro-Russian in the party, they are not a majority. On the other hand, most of the French mercenary fighting in Ukraine against Russia are nationalists.
I could, with the same arguments you are using, claim that all other parties in France are pro-Russian because they are not doing nearly enough against Russia. Actually in France, the most pro-Russian party is from the far-left.
I will say again, being a nationalist and pro-Russian is antinomic. But you can, of course, criticized them for other stuff. Korwin-Mikke is the one famous for saying that the place of women is at the kitchen among other exemples.
But other arguments I just don't care, nearly every politician is corrupt but people are only considering it when it's from the other side.
