Liberal Victory in Poland Election Seen as Win for Democracy and Ukraine Support

White House sees Polish election results as a win for democracy and Ukraine support in Europe.

Ruling right-wing Law and Justice party was accused of tipping the scales in its favor before surprise loss.

Outcome aligns Poland again with EU and Western values like rule of law and press freedom.

Possible new liberal coalition government could improve relations with EU and resolve dispute over arms to Ukraine.

Transition period still ahead, but election limits chances of Moscow puppet seizing power in NATO ally Poland.
