瓦文萨否认曾充当波共政权线人

Lech Walesa, the former Polish president and hero of the anti-communist movement, was a paid informant for the Soviet-era security services, Polish investigators said yesterday, citing recently unearthed documents.

波兰调查人员昨日援引最近重见天日的文件表示，该国前总统、当年反共运动的英雄莱赫瓦文萨(Lech Walesa)曾是苏联时代安全部门的有偿线人。

Mr Walesa, who founded and led the Solidarity trade union that ultimately brought down communist rule in Poland and helped bring an end to Soviet control of eastern Europe, agreed to become a paid informant for the communist secret services between 1970-76, Poland’s National Remembrance Institute said.

瓦文萨是团结工会(Solidarity)的创始人和领导人。团结工会最终推翻了波兰的共产党统治，并帮助整个东欧摆脱了苏联的控制。波兰国家纪念研究所(IPN)现在称，他曾在1970年至1976年同意成为共产党安全部门的有偿线人。

The claim, which Mr Walesa denies, comes just months after the return to power of Poland’s conservative nationalist Law and Justice party, which believes that communist-era officials still hold positions of power in the EU’s sixth-largest economy and need to be rooted out. Law and Justice leaders say too many have been able to carry influence, wealth and authority into the post-1989 era and that not enough has been done to prosecute them.
