VALENSA THE CHALLENGE THROWS DOWN TO KVASNEVSKY.
The ex-president is ready to return the Polish society on "a correct path".
Alexander Kuranov.
HALF-FORGOTTEN the people and semithrown by former colleagues, legendary
The leader of "Solidarity" and the president of Poland of the beginning of 1990th years Leh Valensa
After three-year detachment from wordly cares has decided to emerge again on
Surface of a public life. In the end of the past week he declared the
Intention to participate in presidential elections of the next year and there and then
Has rushed in weights to feel their support and inspiration.
However going to to take a look at the unexpected orator not numerous
Participants of meetings in Vrotslave and Lodz in reply to its ardent speeches and
Predictions only puzzly kept silence. "Who it? - As if questioned
Astonished faces. - that well-known electrician from a Gdansk shipyard 1980
Year and the first postcommunist president of Poland, which portraits
Look now from all textbooks? But that it does here and today, in
1999? After all train Valensy has left for a long time on a single-track railway of history, which almost
Never has return movement. "
The courageous founder of former invincible "Solidarity" has not found in itself
Courage adequately to transfer in December, 1995 defeat from the leader of the left
Alexander Kvasnevsky's forces. Since then Valensa does not wish to see,
To hear the present inhabitant of a palace the Belvedere in the centre of the Polish capital.
Even having taken places during the Washington summit of NATO with Kvasnevsky in
One hotel, Valensa has managed to avoid the general roads, meetings and sights with the
The successor. And here now he throws down a challenge to the present president.
In the first interviews given after so preliminary - to
Elections remains the whole one and a half year! - start of pre-election campaign,
Leh Valensa looked the gloomy and self-satisfied barin habitually teaching
The court. He considers, that interests of miners are absolutely started and
Peasants so important spheres also do not enter into number priority, as
Education and medicine.
Having left the status of the first sir of Poland, Leh Valensa some time
Beat off from the judicial executors picked incomes of the ex-president.
Then esteemed lectures at the western universities a little, has come to see a little
Prestigious international forums. As interest to it in the world
Vanished, Valensa zavjal, has left in itself and has become isolated in family cares. Only in
Last year he has decided what to bury itself(himself) too early, has started and
Has created pocket Christian Democratic party. Ostensibly under its insisting
Valensa also left now in a campaign on the Belvedere.
Nowadays popularity Valensy is in the Polish society almost on zero,
But its assistants do not lose courage, recollecting, by the way, and revival
Boris Yeltsin in 1996. Though so scale promotion of the outsider
Now in Poland hardly someone will wish and can spend.
Rate Leh Valensa and its command do on another. Disappointed in
Results of socioeconomic reforms the Poles, to which majority from
The state pie powdered sugar grains, have got now only
Hope, according to Valensy, on arrival to a management of the country resolute and
The courageous politicians, capable to put things in order in the started house. "I
The supporter of presidential system of democracy, - speaks Valensa. - I Want,
That the parliament reacted to put forward projects of laws, all faster
Held under the control, and I as the president would define rates
Social movement ".
Almost unique achievement of the successors in power Valensa
Considers the introduction of Poland into NATO structure. It supports and present
Alliance actions in Yugoslavia, complaining, that intervention in development of the local
Crisis has not occurred in first half 1990th As the winner
The world Nobel Prize, Valensa hopes to take part in creation
Some kind of the XXI-st century Manifesto, which realisation, as he said,
Would promote suppression of any displays of anti-Semitism and
International intolerance. The guarantor of safety in new century became
According to Valensy, naturally, North Atlantic alliance.
For a long time there has passed demand on ostensibly able to operate the state of "cooks" and
"Electricians in a dress coat", bragging in a presidential office a box with
Tools, instead of carefully developed analysis of a status of the country, in
Postsocialist region of Europe. To people here already almost all the same, that
Did also by whom there was till 1989 this or that politician. It confirms,
For example, and fresh experience of presidential elections in Slovakia, where the first round with
Convincing advantage the long-term member of the Central Committee of Communist Party Rudolf has won
SHuster, and its nominee was put forward by figures of the ruling right-centrist
Coalitions. And in Poland now beskonkurentno the most popular politician
The former leader of communistic youth, young-looking is considered and
"Multilingual", it is pragmatic and it is modern conceiving president Alexander
Kvasnevsky.
