Wojciech Jaruzelski Zitate

Wojciech Witold Jaruzelski [ˈvɔjtɕɛx ˈvʲitɔlt jaruˈzɛlskʲi] war ein polnischer Politiker und General. Er war von 1968 bis 1983 der am längsten amtierende Verteidigungsminister der Volksrepublik Polen. Nach seiner Ernennung zum Vorsitzenden der Polnischen Vereinigten Arbeiterpartei war er zugleich von 1981 bis 1985 Ministerpräsident sowie von 1985 bis 1989 Staatsratsvorsitzender der Volksrepublik Polen. Während der Wendejahre bekleidete er von 1989 bis 1990 das wiedereingeführte Amt des Staatspräsidenten. Nicht nur wegen des von ihm ausgerufenen Kriegsrechts in Polen, sondern auch aufgrund der Konzentration mehrerer politischer und militärischer Ämter auf seine Person, galt er zeitweise als eine der mächtigsten Persönlichkeiten des ehemaligen Ostblocks.
