RS-AWS executive urges Solidarity boss Krzaklewski to stand for presidency

The appeal follows a meeting between the executive of RS-AWS and the AWS Youth Movement in Warsaw yesterday, at which Krzaklewski was unanimously nominated by the delegates. Interior Minister Janusz Tomaszewski, who officiated at the meeting, said Solidarity Election Action (AWS) would appeal to junior coalition partner Freedom Union (UW) to endorse Krzaklewski's candidacy. However UW leadership has reiterated at different forums that they intend to push their own candidate. (Gazeta Wyborcza, page 10)
