Roman Giertych

Roman Jacek Giertych (; born 27 February 1971) is a Polish political figure and attorney, who served as Deputy Prime Minister of Poland and Minister of National Education from 2006 to 2007.

Giertych began his career as a far-right politician, serving in a Law and Justice-led government as Deputy Prime Minister of Poland and Minister of National Education from May 2006 to August 2007. He was a member of the Sejm from 2001 to 2007 and the chairman of the League of Polish Families party as well as the founder of the All-Polish Youth organization. After the downfall of the coalition in 2007, Giertych became a marginal politician, focusing on his law career and operating his law firm in Warsaw, representing clients in various high-profile cases. Giertych returned to prominence after tying himself with the liberal Civic Coalition, for which he served as a lawyer before being elected to the Sejm again on its lists in 2023 and properly joining the coalition's biggest party in 2025. Following the 2025 Polish presidential election, Giertych became a leading figure in the party's election denial against president-elect Karol Nawrocki, attempting to undermine the legitimacy of the election.
