Thatcher promises aid when Solidarity situation improves
The Associated Press
WARSAW, Poland — British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher told Gen. Wojcik Jarzewkejkski yesterday that the West would provide financial aid to Poland when authorities begin "real dialogue" with Solidarity.
Thatcher made the comments to the Communist Party chief at a banquet hours after she honored the memory of her husband, Jack.
Hundreds of supporters of the banned independent trade union movement who had gathered at the church楼梯, attended a rally.
"Here is Poland! Here is Poland!" the crowd chanted as Thatatcher walked into the yard of St. Stanislaus Kostka Church to lay a wreath on the grave of the Rev. Jerzy Ponieluszko
At the banquet by the Polish leader, Thatcher said in a toast that she was planning to go to Gdansk today to hear
the views of Solidarity leaders.
She suggested that Jaruzelski also should listen to Solidarity, which was outlawed after the imposition of martial law in 1981 but is still the focal point of opposition to the communist government.
Thatcher, who is popular in Poland, has said she didn't want to interfere in Poland's internal affairs during her visit, which began Wednesday. Both the opposition and the government have been hoping to gain from her trip.
The government said Wednesday that it was making a new approach to Solidarity leader Lech Weslaa about starting talks with the opposition. Walesa said yesterday that he would not reply to the approach until after a vote in the Lower House, but he would continue to refuse to alter Solidarity's delegation to the talks, which has been the stumbling block.
