Pontiff urges Vatican Warsaw diplomatic ties during Poland visit
Pope John Paul II used his Poland trip to condemn the Jaruzelski regime while signaling for the Vatican to establish full diplomatic relations with Warsaw. He met Gen. Jaruzelski in Warsaw and urged coordinated steps with Polish bishops to make the move credible for Poland and the church. The pope also spoke in support of Solidarity, toured hospitals and factories, and visited the tomb of dissident priest Jerzy Popieluszko, kissing his grave in a scene of quiet defiance.
