On May 12, 1970, General Władysław Anders, Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Armed Forces in 1944-1945, died in exile in London.
On 30 January 1930, the Politburo of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) decided to launch the largest resettlement operation in the entire history of the Soviet Union, still referred to today as the 'kulak deportation'.
Years ago, Poles, like Ukrainians today, did not want to be a Russian colony. They dreamed of their own independent country.
