Background: Sandwiched between Germany and Russia, Poland is under constant threat of invasion from the time of its formation in the middle of the 10th Century. The country's borders expand and contract dramatically over the centuries as regions are either annexed by or won back from its neighbours. Following the First World War, Poland achieves an uneasy and short-lived independence that is shattered when Germany invades on 1 September 1939, starting the Second World War. At the end of the war the country falls behind the Soviet Union's 'Iron Curtain', becoming a satellite state of the superpower. A pro-Soviet communist government is installed. Popular dissent mounts as the Polish economy begins to falter. When the Soviet Union begins to break apart the Polish people seize the opportunity to again achieve their independence. More background Mini biography: Born on 29 September 1943 in Popowo, near Wloclawek, Poland, into a working class family.

    Extractions: T here wasn't a cloud in the sky on the day I met Lech Walesa in Gdansk earlier this year. A gentle breeze stirred. I extended my hand to the slayer of communism. He reciprocated humbly, I thought, without eye contact. Stocky and gray-haired, Walesa greeted me in a traditional Polish way: "Quickly, quickly, let's get this over with," he said. "I don't have much time." I had been warned. Taxi drivers, retirees, priests, doctors, an owner of a Christian radio station—most of them former Solidarity members—all got red in the face when I told them I was going to interview Lech Walesa. "He squandered his opportunity!" most of them said, as if they'd had a chance to rehearse before I crossed paths with them in various Polish cities. The ensuing litanies accused Walesa of making deals with the communists, not to mention megalomania, greed, pride, verbal gaffes, and stupidity. But, before I met with Walesa, I was too Americanized to take my unscientific survey of Polish public opinion at face value. The one exception was the

In December 1981, Walesa, along with several thousand others, was arrested when General Jaruzelski imposed martial law and “suspended” the labour movement “Solidarnosc” (Solidarity). Walesa was interned in a country house in a remote part of Poland, close to the then Soviet border, and was visited three times by ICRC delegates. During this period, the ICRC visited 4,850 other internees (79 visits to 24 different places of detention) and it provided assistance and helped to restore contact between internees and their families abroad. At the same time and in conjunction with the Polish Red Cross and the League of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (as it was then known), the ICRC carried out an extensive assistance programme for the benefit of the civilian population which was in dire need of basic goods.

Durante un tiempo fue un líder carismático de su país, fue presidente de Polonia (1990–95) y recibió el Premio Nobel de la Paz en 1983. Testigo de las revueltas obreras de 1970 que se saldaron con manifestantes muertos por la policía polaca, se convirtió en el líder de las protestas en el astillero Lenin de Gdansk (antigua Danzig) en agosto de 1980. La amplitud de la revuelta obrera, en la que muy pronto se introdujeron demandas políticas, llevó a que el gobierno finalmente cediera y firmara un acuerdo con los representantes obreros permitiendo a los trabajadores el derecho de organizarse libremente. El Comité de Huelga se transformó en una federación de sindicatos dirigida por Walesa y que vino a denominarse Solidaridad. Más de 10 millones de polacos se adhirieron al movimiento. El éxito fue efímero. Ante las amenazas soviéticas, el gobierno polaco impuso la ley marcial y el general Jaruselzski estableció una dictadura militar prohibiendo al sindicato Solidaridad y encarcelando a Walesa. Cuando le fue concedido el Premio Nobel de la Paz en 1983, fue su mujer Danuta la que asistió a la ceremonia de entrega en Oslo.

In 1983 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace; fearing involuntary exile, he remained in Poland while his wife, Danuta, traveled to Norway to accept the prize on his behalf. He continued to direct the outlawed union until it received legal recognition in 1988. Solidarity won an overwhelming victory in free elections in June 1989, and after Walesa refused to form a coalition government with the communists, the Parliament was forced to accept a Solidarity-led government, though Walesa himself refused to serve as premier. In 1990 he won Poland's first direct presidential election by a landslide, and he helped guide Poland into a free-market economy. His confrontational style eroded his popularity, and he was narrowly defeated in his bid for reelection in 1995.
