Election Report: Assessment of Foreign Manipulation and Interference in the 2025 Polish Presidential Election

The report assesses foreign interference in the 2025 Polish elections, identifying persistent information threats. Prepared by members of Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference Information Sharing and Analysis Centre, Alliance4Europe, and Debunk.org, the study builds on the work of 28 organizations and 90 practitioners. In the information operations analyzed, the dominant narrative casts the EU and Ukraine in a negative light, accusing them of election interference and presenting far-right politicians as guardians of Poland’s sovereignty. The tactics of manipulating public opinion involve creating fake online personalities and exploiting vulnerabilities in policy and moderation on X, TikTok, and Meta platforms.
