Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has launched a new parliamentary club, Rozwój Plus, comprising 40 mostly former Law and Justice lawmakers.

Former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki hosted an event for his association Rozwój Plus, signaling a shift in the country's conservative political landscape. The gathering, titled "Rozwój + Wy," coincided with the official registration of a new 40-member parliamentary club under the same name.

The group largely comprises former lawmakers from the opposition Law and Justice (PiS) party. Among those joining is MP Szymon Giżyński, who was suspended from PiS in mid-July. Giżyński stated that the new formation offers an opportunity to return to "what was once most valuable in PiS."

Opening the event, Morawiecki emphasized that Poland must enter "new paths" to adapt to modern global challenges, warning against a loss of vision. The movement marks a notable realignment within the Polish right wing as lawmakers regroup around Morawiecki's initiative.
