Poland governed by mixed military party leadership says source
A high Communist Party source claims Poland is run by a mixed group of generals and top party leaders meeting informally to decide key government actions. The group reportedly includes Jaruzelski Siwicki Barcikowski Olszowski and Rakowski, with no full member list named. The report notes martial law remains, communications cut, and strikes prompt price hikes and arrests.
