Poland -> Gomulka
Poland enjoyed a period of relative stability in the next decade, but in
the mid-60s economic and political difficulties started to increase. After
brief, but intense negotiations with the USSR, the soviets granted
permission to Gomulka to stay in command along with some other
concessions that reflected a more extensive autonomy for the polish
government. For polish citizens, this meant the temporal liberation of
life in Poland. In time, the hopes of a total liberation turned out to be

CabinetMission
As a final reminder we would like to remind delegates that as members
of each cabinet you are entitled to the powers related to your position
inside the government. It is very important for the delegate to always
maintain its position in order to advice the President in the best
manner possible. When debating whether to take an executive action
or release a press statement take into account all the topics that need
to be covered which include but are not limited to foreign policy,
economy, health and education. As a member of the cabinet the
President is counting on your insight to take the best decision possible
in order to advance your countries interests in the global scenario.
