Bronislaw Komarowski, President of Poland: biography and interesting facts from life

One of the most significant political figures of modern Poland is Bronislaw Komarowski. His biography is full of many interesting facts, connected both with social activities and with personal life. Let's try to focus on the most basic of them. So, get acquainted: Bronislaw Komarowski - the president of Poland, the politician, the person.

Childhood and youth policy

The future president of Poland Bronislaw Komarovsky was born on June 4, 1952 in the small town of Oborniki Slaski, located in the south-west of the country, in the Lower Silesia Voivodeship. His father was Sigmund Leon Komarovsky, a well-known scientist of his time, and his mother was Yadviga Shalkovskaya. Both parents belonged to the ancient gentry families.

In 1957, the Komarovsky family moved to another small Polish town - Yuzevuf, and in 1959 - to Pruszkow. In 1966 Bronislaw went to the capital - Warsaw, where he graduated from the general education lyceum. In the same place, the future president first joined dissident activities, for which he was arrested in 1971.

After graduating from the Warsaw University (history department) in 1977, Bronislaw Komarowski began working in one of the Polish journals and then teaching history at the school.

The beginning of political activity

His future political activities, as mentioned above, began with participation in various dissident circles. Since 1980, he joined the well-known opposition organization Solidarity, which was headed by Lech Walesa. When the protest movement broke out in Poland in the early 1980s, Bronislaw Komarovsky was detained for some time - as a person potentially posing a threat to the peace in the state.

However, all this did not prevent him, right up to the abolition of the Polish People's Republic, from publishing one of the opposition magazines, which caused great displeasure among the ruling circles.

On the political Olympus

After in 1989 Poland broke with the communist past and took the path of democratization of society, Bronislaw Komarovsky's political career sharply increased. Immediately after the proclamation of the Third Republic, he was appointed head of the apparatus of one of the ministries. In 1990, Bronislaw Komarowski won the post of deputy defense minister, and the following year he was elected to the Polish parliament. The peak of his government career was in 2000, when the hero of our story became the Minister of Defense. However, the following year he was forced to leave it.

After that, Bronislaw Komorowski joined the liberal-conservative party Civic Platform, headed by then Donald Tusk. In 2007, he became the speaker of the Polish parliament, where he continued to lead an active career, defending his personal civic position and the interests of the political force that put him forward.

On the way to the presidency

After the tragic death in 2010 in a plane crash near Smolensk Polish President Lech Kaczynski, according to the Constitution, the powers of the acting head of state passed to the head of parliament, that is, to Bronislaw Komarovsky.

At that time, he had a relatively low rating of popularity among the electorate. Many experts in the presidential race prophesied victory to the brother of the deceased president - Yaroslav Alexander Kachinsky. Nevertheless, the active activity of the acting head of state in the end, inclined voters' sympathies in his favor. Thus, in the July 2010 elections, Bronislaw Komarovsky was elected president. The biography of the famous Polish politician was supplemented by the weightiest achievement in his life.

At the presidential post

After assuming the post of President Bronislaw Komarovsky began to conduct a course declared before the elections. It consisted in further integration of Poland into EU structures, as well as in strengthening the country's defense capability.

However, just during the presidency of Komarovsky, for a number of objective and subjective reasons, a number of crisis phenomena began to appear in the economy. Also, contradictions began to accumulate between Poland and one of its main economic partners, the Russian Federation, in connection with the global political crisis that arose in 2014. Bronislaw Komarowski himself spoke about Russia rather unflatteringly, which only contributed to the growing tension in relations between the countries, reflected in mutual trade sanctions.

All these factors significantly influenced the decline in the popularity of Komarovsky among the Polish population.

Elections 2015

The year 2015 was marked in Poland by the next presidential election. The main candidates for the main state post were two people. One of them is Bronislaw Komarowski, the president of Poland, increasingly losing the sympathy of the voters, the second is the promising politician Andrzej Sebastian Duda, the right-wing conservative rightist and rightist.

Already on the basis of the first round Duda left the rest of his competitors behind. The second round, in which the representative of "Rights and Justice" defeated Komarovsky, only confirmed the choice of the Poles. Andrzej Duda became the new president of Poland.

Thus ended the presidency of Bronislaw Komarovsky. It was marked by ambiguous and not very pleasant events, but, nevertheless, for ever entered the newest history of the Polish state.

A family

But the main achievement of this man is not a successful political career, or even a presidential post, but a strong and friendly family, created by Bronislaw Komarovsky. Its photo is located below.

The future president of Poland in 1977 married Anna Dembrovskaya, who became his faithful companion of life. In 1979 they had their first daughter, Sofia Alexandra. After that, four other children appeared in the family - Tadeush Yan, Maria Anna, Peter Sigmund, Eljbeta Yadviga. They have long grown up and presented themselves to the happy couple of Komarov long-awaited grandchildren.

Indeed, it is a strong and united family that is the main unit of a strong state, and the greatest merit of each person can certainly be called the creation of such a primary component of society.
