Front (Polish party)

Front is a Russophilic political party in Poland. The party was founded in 2022 by Krzysztof Tołwiński, a former politician of Polish People's Party and Law and Justice that was the Polish Vice-Minister of the State Treasury in 2007. The party became controversial for entering a formal agreement with the Liberal Democratic Party of Belarus and publicly expressing support for the presidents of Belarus and Russia, Alexander Lukashenko and Vladimir Putin. Front also became known for its members serving as the bodyguards of Russian ambassador in Poland Siergiej Andriejew, who was previously attacked by anti-Russian protesters when visiting the Mausoleum of the Soviet Soldiers Cemetery. The party is associated with anti-war, socialist and pro-Russian parties in Poland, and in 2024 it co-founded the political coalition Voice of Strong Poland.
