BBC: Belka lied
The BBC reports that Polish Prime Minister Marek Belka "lied when he said he did not sign anything agreeing to co-operate with the secret services."
Prior to visiting the United States in 1984, according to the Associated Press, Belka signed a document agreeing to inform the Soviet-controlled security and intelligence service if US intelligence officers approached him and to seek "potential informers" for the military regime of Wojciech Jaruzelski.
Poland's state-controlled PAP "news" agency says it saw Belka's classified file and that a final report says Belka gave the regime "no important information." He said he had been cleared of the charge by a special ombudsman and he considered the matter closed.
"It is sure that Belka signed a document agreeing to collaborate," said Donald Tusk of the opposition Civic Platform, According to Tusk, such an invididual "should not hold the post of prime minister."
