	Poland
		In Warsaw, the Moscow communists led by Boleslaw Bierut rejected PPR leader Wladyslaw Gomulka’s “Polish road to socialism” which had adapted the Soviet model to Polish conditions.
		While this progression of events helped to establish the era of Stalinism in Poland, which ended with the death of Bierut and the return of Gomulka to power in 1956, it does not account for other events that took place.
		Bierut has been noted to say “[People’s democracy is not] a synthesis or a permanent co-existence of 2 differing social systems but a system which pushes out and gradually liquidates capitalistic elements and simultaneously develops and strengthens the foundation of the future socialist economy” (Staar, pg.

		As Bierut detrained in East Berlin, Soviet German Premier Otto Grotewohl gave assurances: "Our worthy guest can be convinced that millions of men stand un-shakeably behind the policy of friendship...
		Western authorities believe that East Germans were pressing for a return from Poland of former German territory beyond the Oder and Neisse Rivers; this sentiment smoldered underground, undermined Red rule, disturbed the Communist regimes in neighboring Poland and Czechoslovakia.
		Bierut's visit to Berlin was apparently designed to dispel the reports of ugly ill feeling between the satellites.

		Indeed, the ground for this attitude was Bierut’s hope to get support from the side of democratic circles the freemasons were connected with.

		WARSAW - Right-wing Polish legislators behind a parliamentary resolution requiring the Polish government to seek war reparations from Germany slammed the Polish cabinet's recent decision to "close once and for all" the reparations issue, Polish Radio reported.
		MP Antoni Macierewicz said the government's declaration of "closure" echoed the 1953 decision of Poland's Soviet-backed communist prime minister Boleslaw Bierut who rejected war reparations for Poland despite Allied guarantees included in the 1945 Potsdam Agreement.
		According to Macierewicz, Bierut's 1953 decision to forego reparations out of loyalty to Moscow, had no legal clout and was contrary to Polish national interests.

		Stanislaw Mikolajczyk, whose role in Polish wartime and postwar history is so critical to understanding what Stalin was up to in that wretchedly tormented nation gets no mention whatsoever from Zubok and Pleshakov.
		Wladyslaw Gomulka, who played a central role among Stalin's Polish agents (the other two, far more beholden to Stalin, were Edward Oso'bka-Morawski and Boleslaw Bierut), also goes unmentioned in this context.
		The roles of the latter pair go unmentioned entirely, although they, like Gomulka, were regularly summoned to Moscow to hear the Kremlin boss's current wisdom on keeping their land in the plan, on track toward a Soviet paradise.
