Polish President Karol Nawrocki Sparks Buzz After Being Caught on Camera With Nicotine Pouch During UN Meeting
A short video from the United Nations meeting in New York has quickly gone viral after it appeared to show Polish President Karol Nawrocki using a nicotine pouch during the high-profile session. The clip, shared widely on social media, captured Nawrocki sitting among other world leaders before discreetly reaching toward his mouth, sparking a wave of online debate.
For many in Poland, this moment was not entirely surprising. Journalists have previously noted Nawrocki’s well-known habit of using nicotine pouches, and the topic has been discussed in local media more than once. Still, seeing it unfold during an international event like the UN General Assembly has amplified the conversation to a global stage.
Some viewers online were quick to joke about the situation, calling it a very “human moment” in a room often dominated by stiff protocol and formal speeches. Others criticized the behavior, suggesting it was not the right time or place for such habits.
Regardless of the divided reaction, the video has spread rapidly, with clips circulating across Twitter, TikTok, and Facebook. In just a matter of hours, the scene has become another reminder of how quickly even the smallest gestures by world leaders can turn into worldwide talking points.
