WARSAW
Poland’s president vetoed two bills on Friday that would have introduced cohabitation contracts for couples living together, dealing a blow to same-sex couples in one of the few European Union countries with limited rights for LGBT people. Prime Minister Donald Tusk took office in 2023 pledging to deliver reforms on abortion and LGBT rights, but divisions within his broad pro-European coalition as well as nationalist President Karol Nawrocki’s veto powers mean he has struggled to do so.
