Infighting in the KPP

The communist party of Poland has been host to a longstanding conflict between those who wish to see Poland aligned with the USSR and those who believe that the USSR is every bit as imperialistic as the monarchist regime which preceded it. Representing the anti-Soviets is Maria Koszutska, an alleged, who accuses her pro-Soviet comrades as being “boneless” and enemies of the revolution. Acting as de-facto leader, Władysław Gomułka represents the pro-Soviet wing of the party. Although already popular within the party, Gomułka has been growing increasingly unpopular amongst the Polish populace for his pro-Russian diplomatic stance. Although now in control of Poland, the party is divided on which of these candidates should represent their leadership. In the wake of their indecision, there is mounting pressure from Moscow to not only forbid Koszutska from leadership, but to have her face trial as a and anti-revolutionary.
