Soviet Godfather

Vol 5 Chapter 202: Legalization of Solidarity

"Seryosha, Walesa has promised to meet with Yaruzelski. What shall we do next?" Yuri asked Sergey on the other side of the phone.

"Yuri, this meeting is very important. If you can, I hope you can lead this negotiation. Let's not rush for success. Let Solidarity gain legal political status in Poland, and then let us intervene over the years. People in Solidarity will gradually enter the leadership. By then, Solidarity will be our vassals and puppets in Poland..." Sergei exhorted on the other side of the phone.

Over the past few years, as the grain trade accounts for an increasing proportion of Gorky’s internal income, Gorky has arranged a group of people to work in the Solidarity trade union, because the Solidarity trade union has a serious dependence on the Gorky Brotherhood. Therefore, many of these people arranged by the Gorky Brotherhood in Poland occupy a key position within the Solidarity trade union. And now the Solidarity Trade Union is about to see the dawn of victory, and the value of these people will naturally rise. Sergei will not let go of these chess pieces.

Most of the leaders of the Solidarity trade union like Walesa came from the bottom. So when Yaruzelsky sent them an invitation to talk, they didn't even know what to do. Yuri served as the lower-level leader of the Gorky Automobile Plant many years ago, and has been doing business in Europe and the United States for many years. His vision and experience are definitely one of the best in the Solidarity trade union, so these things are not difficult for Yuri at all.

The meeting place was agreed to be the headquarters of the Polish United Workers’ Party in the center of the Polish capital Warsaw. On the day of departure, there was a pouring rain in the sky. Yuri, Walesa and other leaders of the Solidarity trade union were escorted by the Polish gendarmerie to the headquarters building of the United Workers Party. A long way apart, one after another gendarme was heavily guarded guarding the street. Except for the open police car, there are few other vehicles on the road.

"Yuri, what are you thinking about now?" Walesa was sitting close to Yuri's seat. He kept adjusting his shirt and tie, almost without stopping along the way. Yuri kept looking at the scenery outside the car window without saying a word. After all, Yuri is also the first political broker, so many things come to an end and take countermeasures. But Yuri has already begun to accept and gradually adapt to this kind of work.

As Sergei said when talking to them. The Gorky Brotherhood is now the number one consortium in the world. The business has done so, and money is just a number for everyone. Sergey Shah could leave the Soviet Union now and live the rest of his life comfortably. But once he did this, he would become an enemy of the Soviet Union and would be wanted globally by the Soviet government and later the Russian government. This kind of life that can never live in the sun is definitely not what Sergei wants. Sergei hopes that everyone can enjoy their ill-gotten wealth in the same way as those large European and American consortium families, so the core members of the Gorky Brotherhood will inevitably be exposed to politics in the future.

The main reason why Sergei has fancyed Poland is that there will be a vacuum of economic power in the future. The socialist system established by the United Workers' Party is about to collapse, and the old capital consortium in the West has not yet reclaimed this land. In addition to the oligarchs born in Poland, Sergei didn't know who else could control the country's economic lifeline, and those oligarchs who were still in their infancy in Poland were not as powerful as Sergei. Sergey can make them ruined by moving their little fingers. How could Sergey easily miss such a good opportunity?

...

Yuri and Walesa walked into the headquarters building of the Polish United Workers Party with a sense of anxiety. They enter the building through a special passage, except for the reception staff

, There are almost no people along the way. When they were finally led into a large meeting room upstairs, as soon as the door of the meeting room was opened, a row of high-ranking officials in the uniforms of Polish military generals sat opposite. Yuri quietly glanced at everyone present, and he quickly found that sitting in the center was the Chairman of the Polish State Council and the Supreme Commander-in-chief of the Polish Armed Forces, General Jaruzelski.

Seeing that everyone from the Solidarity trade union came to the venue, Yaruzelski slowly got up from his seat, walked towards Walesa, shook hands with him courteously, and then introduced to Walesa to participate. Members of the Politburo of the Polish United Workers’ Party at today’s meeting.

And Walesa also introduced the leaders of the Solidarity trade union to Yaruzelski. The opening atmosphere was good, everyone was consciously avoiding talking about unpleasant topics. Then after some familiarity and greetings, the representatives of the two sides took their respective positions, and then Yaruzelski and Wałęsa read out the declaration documents that had been drafted long ago that included their respective political positions~www.readwn. com~ Next, the two sides started the first topic of this meeting, that is, the legal status of the Solidarity trade union.

Yaruzelski did not struggle too much with the issue of repeated strikes by the Solidarity trade union. He sincerely said to Walesa: "The struggle between us has lasted for so many years, which has had a great impact on the stability and unity of Poland, and has severely torn the Polish society. We, the Polish United Workers Party, hope to end the present This situation of confrontation has put Poland back on the right track. Therefore, we believe that as long as Solidarity guarantees that they will always be loyal to the Polish people and will not be manipulated by foreign capitalist forces, we are willing to make Solidarity a legitimate Poland. group……"

Walesa expressed a certain degree of agreement with Yaruzelski's speech. Jaruzelski, who is sitting across from him now, looks humble, polite, sincere and kind, not at all like the dictator who announced that Poland would enter a state of emergency military control in 1981. This time, the Polish United Workers’ Party led by Jaruzelski made great concessions, which made Walesa a little bit unbelievable.

...

A week later, Poles saw a front page photo of Walesa and Jaruzelski shaking hands intimately in the newspaper early in the morning, and a news that shocked the world was announced. The Polish government announced that Solidarity will become a legal political organization in Poland. They will participate as an independent political party in the next annual election of the representatives of the Polish people. Many Western political commentators were so startled that their eyes fell. The feelings of the Soviet government who heard the news were very complicated. Gorbachev knew how serious this incident and what happened in Hungary a few months ago. He urgently called Foreign Minister Shevardnadze to join him. Discuss countermeasures. )!!
