Zdumienie Europy, części jej państw i narodów, że oto najbardziej zwycięskie państwo w wielkiej wojnie 1914-1918 i jego armia poniosły z rąk Trzeciej Rzeszy i jej sojuszników niebywałą, spektaku­ larną wręcz klęskę. I na dodatek państwo to podpisało upokarzający rozejm, by nie rzec, haniebny, w istocie akt kapitulacji1. A przecież wiosna 1940 roku w walczącej już z Hitlerem Europie miała być czasem wielce symptomatycz­ nym, czasem zwycięstwa. Po klęsce wrześniowej Polski, po uaktywnieniu się wojennym Związku Sowieckiego (Polska, Finlandia) wydawało się, i to z dużą dozą pewności społecznej, że to najlepszy moment, by demokracje zachodnie, sojusznicy przegranych, zmobilizowały wszystkie swe siły, by pokonać faszyzm i jego „czerwoną” odmianę - komunizm. Wszak od 3 września 1939 roku przy­ najmniej Anglia i Francja były już w stanie wojny z Trzecią Rzeszą.

  • Baltic Amber - 10 Years of Success 1 Intro
    Baltic Amber - 10 Years of Success 1 Intro t will not be a typical issue of the Baltic Amber magazine since the occasion is unusual – IMultinational Corps Northeast celebrated its 10th birthday in 2009. Facts will not be in major focus either, because it will be more about emotions and memories. After all, they have greater power than tangible documents with detailed data. The intention of this issue of the Baltic Amber is to present the story of Multinational Corps Northeast; the Corps, which has managed to cover many pages of its 10-year history with successes and highlights. This story will be told by people whose experiences have been scattered in time and space. But they all have met here, in Baltic Barracks, home of the Corps. These people will present the Corps’ history from their own perspective, which may not necessarily be the only one and complete, but it will defi nitely have a human touch. It is the right time and place to listen to people who make this Corps strong. The following pages of the Baltic Amber will take you deep into the Corps’ world. You will fi nd out what the process of founding the Corps looked like, what events shaped the Corps throughout those past 10 years and what the current and future challenges and visions to be met are. All this will give you a taste of a multinational adventure and unique character of this “Corps of the new Millennium” and its 10 years of success. Public Affairs Team 2 Baltic Amber - 10 Years of Success List of contents Commander sounds Page 4-5 proudly IMPRESSUM Page 6-7 The Baltic Amber is the Insight into the Corps’ history authorized offi cial magazine of the Headquarters Multinational Corps Northeast, which shall be a fruitful source of information on the Corps-related issues for members of the Headquarters, assigned formations as well as international visitors and individuals.

It specifies procedures for appointment to – and removal from – the post, as well as its respon- sibilities and investigative procedures (see below). • A commission on legalising the illegal economy, appointed by Prime Minister Nikolai Tanaev in August 2002, was tasked with drafting a programme of work under the chairmanship of Deputy Premier Djoomart Otorbaev and Finance Minister Bolot Abdildaev. The plan envisions four principal projects: economic analysis of the shadow economy; identification of fiscal policy measures; labour force policy; and accounting and registration policy. The goal of all four measures is to bring illegal businesses in all economic sectors into legal conformity. The National Statistics Committee has reported that the shadow economy accounts for at least 13 per cent and as much as 40 per cent of GDP. • A nationwide constitutional referendum approved in February 2003 introduced reforms that included the extension of immunity from prosecution for the first president (see below). • President Askar Akaev signed a decree in February 2003 raising judicial salaries by 50 per cent. He called the decision a move to reduce corruption in the court system. • An anti-corruption law was adopted in March 2003 to highlight and prevent corruption, call offenders to account and create a legal and organisational framework for anti-corruption operations.
