WARSAW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 14th November, 2018) European Council President Donald Tusk has topped the list of most trusted politicians in Poland, according to a poll out this week.

The former Polish prime minister and a staunch critic of the sitting eurosceptic government is trusted by 47.7 percent of those sampled by the Warsaw-based Institute for Social and Market Research (IBRiS).

He remains a controversial figure in Poland where he is often bashed by pro-government media and praised by the opposition, who believes he stands a fair chance of winning the 2020 presidential race.

Tusk was trailed in the poll by right-wing President Andrzej Duda, who enjoys trust of 45.8 percent of Poles, down 1.4 percent from October. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki came third with 42 percent.
