Polish Ruling Party Replaces PM Ahead of Elections

WARSAW —

Poland's ruling conservatives named Finance Minister Mateusz Morawiecki as the country's new prime minister on Thursday as they gear up for a series of elections in the coming years.

Morawiecki, who has also been a deputy prime minister, will replace the largely popular Beata Szydlo in a move marking the midpoint of the parliamentary term and in what is the beginning of a broader government reshuffle.

Sources told Reuters this week that Morawiecki, 49, was the most likely candidate to replace Szydlo, 54, to prepare the party — led by Jaroslaw Kaczynski, Poland's paramount politician — for elections due in the next three years.
