Mazowiecki seen as best PM in 25 years
Poles believe that Tadeusz Mazowiecki, who died late last year, was the best prime minister of the past 25 years, according to a poll conducted by CBOS. Some 25 percent of the respondents voted for him.
Other former PMs garnered less support, with 10 percent of the respondents voting for Jerzy Buzek, 8 percent for Jarosław Kaczyński and 7 percent for Donald Tusk. As many as 23 percent did name any politician as best prime minister.
A poll conducted five years ago named Kazimierz Marcinkiewicz as best prime minister with 18 percent support, followed by Donald Tusk with 16 percent support. At that time Tadeusz Mazowiecki was named by 15 percent of the respondents.
