The new government of Polish Prime Minister Morawiecki may not receive a vote of confidence in the parliament

The new government of Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, consisting mainly of women and "new" faces, may not receive a vote of confidence from the Sejm due to the lack of a parliamentary majority. This is reported by the publication Euractiv, according to UNN.

Details 

Despite winning the general election, the ruling conservative Law and Justice party (PiS, ECR) failed to win a majority, unlike the coalition of three opposition blocs: Donald Tusk's Civic Coalition (KO, EPP/S&D), the centrist Third Way (Renew/EPP) and the Left (S&D/Left).

Despite this, Polish President and former PiS member Andrzej Duda appointed Morawiecki, who is also a PiS member, as prime minister. However, despite Morawiecki's efforts, no party accepted his invitation to coalition talks.

Formally, Mateusz Morawiecki has two weeks to get a vote of confidence from the Sejm for his government. If he fails to do so, the new ministers are likely to work until mid-December at the latest.

Appendix 

According to the Constitution, if a government is not elected in the first stage, the Sejm takes the initiative in forming a government. The Sejm also elects the prime minister with an absolute majority of votes, so Tusk's camp could come to power and the latter would become prime minister.

As a reminder,

Polish President Andrzej Duda swore in a new government headed by Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki. Among the 18 names, 10 are women.
