POLISH CONSERVATIVES REACH OUT TO OPPONENTS TO FORM GOVERNMENT

Warsaw Buoyed by the presidential victory of their leader, Lech Kaczynski, Poland's conservatives offered to embrace market reforms yesterday to try to coax their Civic Platform opponents into a government. Mr. Kaczynski, pictured, who combines traditional Roman Catholic values with skepticism about freemarket economics, won the Sunday runoff against pro-business moderate Donald Tusk on a promise to root out corruption and protect the welfare state. The Law and Justice party headed by Mr. Kaczynski's identical twin brother, Jaroslaw, won last month's general election after denouncing Mr. Tusk and his Civic Platform for their tax-cutting plans and by making lavish campaign promises to farmers and heavy industry workers.
The twins now face the formidable task of trying to win over Poland's growing middle class, which overwhelmingly backed Mr. Tusk, as well as Poland's European Union partners, who have been irked by the Kaczynskis' mild nationalism and anti-gay remarks. The president-elect, who will replace leftist Aleksander Kwasniewski in December, struck a conciliatory tone in his first remarks after official results showed he won the presidency with 54% of the vote. "I want to pass my best wishes and words of respect and sympathy to my rival Donald Tusk," he said. "My Law and Justic colleagues and I are definitely in favour of a joint government [with the Platform]."
