Kwaśniewski's leadership during a transformative decade in Polish history earned him widespread respect. His successful navigation of NATO and EU accession, along with his role in the Orange Revolution, are considered major achievements. A 2020 poll by Rzeczpospolita found that a plurality of Poles considered him the best president since 1989, a rare honor for a former head of state.
