Question 7 • Principles of American Democracy

What happened in Poland in 1989?

Answer
A
The Polish government banned all workers’ unions.
B
Lech Walesa became the first freely elected president.
C
Many solidarity candidates were voted out of office.
D
Workers finally were given the right to form unions.

Explanation

In 1989, Poland’s communist government agreed to legalize the Solidarity movement and allow independent unions again, following negotiations with opposition leaders. This matches the choice that workers were given the right to form unions. Lech Walesa became president in 1990, not 1989.
