Marian Krzaklewski
Marian Krzaklewski (born August 23, 1950 in Kolbuszowa , Subcarpathian Voivodeship ) is a Polish politician.
Krzaklewski had been a member of the Solidarność trade union since the 1980s and also took over its chairmanship in 1991 after Lech Wałęsa was elected president. After numerous parties that had emerged from the trade union movement failed to enter parliament in the 1993 Sejm elections, in 1996 he brought together around 40 groups to form the Solidarność (AWS) election campaign . In the 1997 parliamentary elections, the electoral alliance under his leadership won the election with 33.8% and formed a coalition government with the Freedom Union (UW). Although supported by the coalition partners and the president, Krzaklewski refused the post of prime minister and was only chairman of the AWS group. Prime Minister was Jerzy Buzek .
In the presidential elections in 2000 , Krzaklewski ran as a candidate for the AWS, but failed with only 15.6%.
2001 Krzaklewski resigned as chairman of the AWS. In 2002 he also resigned the Solidarność chairmanship.
