Slavic Union (Polish: Związek Słowiański; ZS) is a political party in Poland founded on 3 August 2006 (derived from an association of the same name founded on 6 July 2004). Its chairman was Włodzimierz Rynkowski until 2018, becoming chairman again in 2022. From 2018 the party was led by Zbigniew Adamczyk, and from December 2019 to 2022 by Karol Weiher. The party first fielded candidates in the 2006 local elections and won two seats on the municipal councils in 2010. Between 2009 and 2019, Slavic Union put forward committees three times for the European Parliament elections, but has so far failed to push through any list due to a lack of the required number of signatures. The long-standing president of the Slavic Union was Włodzimierz Rynkowski, who was replaced by Zbigniew Adamczyk in 2018. One of the key demands in the Slavic Union's programme is the strengthening of alliances between Poland and Central and Eastern European countries. The party also advocates for leaving the European Union, strengthening defence, introducing free health care and single-mandate electoral districts. It strongly opposes the construction of a US missile shield and Poland's participation in imperial military conflicts. The party also proposes that strategic industries, banks and natural resources be owned by the state, along with free and universal healthcare and education should be free. According to the Slavic Union, Poland should not be looking for allies in the West when it has countries such as Belarus and Russia at hand and it is with them that it should strengthen cooperation.
