Warsaw, Poland - 6 June, 2008 The war of words between Poland's Lech Walesa and President Lech Kaczynski continues as Walesa responds to the President's accusation that Walesa was a communist agent by saying that Kaczynski should be removed from the Government.
A new book written by two historians from the Institute of National Remembrance is said to contain some documents that show that Walesa was in fact the notorious Communist Agent of the 1970's, Bolek.
Kaczynski said that he does not have to read the book to know that Walesa was an agent. He knows, without having read the book, that the book tells the truth about that period of Walesa's life.
According to the President, "This is not a faultless biography, of course. It is obvious that in the 80's Walesa was undoubtedly the nation's leader, which is not to say that writing the truth about him should now be filtered. A democratic society has the right to be served uncensored information, even if the truth is hard to bear."
His conclusion is contra to what the Polish courts have said. They courts ruled that Walesa was not an agent.
Supporting the Polish Court ruling, Focus Historia magazine published, as sensational proof of Walesa’s innocence regarding co-operation with the communists, a 1974 Communist Security Services report on Walesa that said, in part, "Talks were held repeatedly with Walesa in connection to his irresponsible behaviour and utterances. However, they have yielded no results thus far."
But since the days when Kaczynski and Walesa worked together, the relationship between them has not been good.
Walesa has described the Kaczynski Brothers as nothing more than troublemakers who would act without regard to the long-term consequences of their actions. Poland's Lech Walesa versus the Polish Twins turns South
Walesa added yesterday that the communist used people like Kaczynski for their propaganda. See in Polish Walesa: Za wypowiedz o "Bolku" Lech Kaczynski powinien byc usuniety z urzedu http://wiadomosci.gazeta.pl/Wiadomosci/1,80271,5283578,Walesa__Za_wypowiedz_o__Bolku__Lech_Kaczynski_powinien.html
