Pressure on Reagan over Polish asylum rules after priest’s murder
Washington reports that the killing of Solidarity priest Jerzy Popieluszko has intensified pressure on President Reagan to ease political asylum rules for Poles. A secret National Security Division Directive to certify Poland as persecuting, aiding asylum, has stalled in the White House since August. INS and Treasury oppose broader asylum, citing risk of waves from other countries. The NSC and Brezezinski push for signature, while a State Department paper notes Poland’s police state tactics and persecution of dissent. Other options include a DOJ letter to remove administrative hurdles for Polish refugees. The piece also covers Dr. Richard Bargen’s FAA license suspension for alleged airspace violations near Fallon and Moral Majority dynamics in the White House.
