International Research The treatment of the Poles by the Soviet Union between 1939 and 1941 is still an unfamiliar story to many people. At the time, news of what was going on barely reached the west, and later in the war, when Britain and the United States became allies of the USSR, discussion of the episode was discouraged as tactless. Ascherson (1987, p.94) has observed that the true story only emerged in fragments in the post-war years, and has been 'overshadowed by the more spectacular and better-publicised savageries of the Nazi occupation of Poland and the rest of Europe'. Yet, it was no less brutal or cold blooded. As Anne Applebaum (1994, p.14) observed in an article in the Age Almost no one in the west considers (Stalin's) crimes to have been evil in the same visceral way that they feel Hitler's crimes to have been evil. Until recently, many argued that there was no way to commemorate Stalin's victims, because there was no proof of their identity or their numbers. This was always a somewhat disingenuous argument - witnesses and written memoirs abound.

Extractions: Original: ENGLISH Attached is the draft Medium Term Perspective (MTP) for the period 1998-2003. Since 1992 the Policy Making Organs have periodically considered the medium term direction of the Agency's activities based upon medium term plans prepared by the Secretariat - the most recent being the draft Medium Term Plan 1995-2000 which was contained in a Note by the Secretariat of 21 December 1993. In June 1994, the Board concluded that as the plan was an internal document, no particular action was required. However, it requested the Secretariat to take account of the comments made by Member States in using the plan for the preparation of programme proposals as well as in the preparation of future plans. The plan was conveyed to the General Conference in 1994 for information under cover of GC(XXXVIII)/11. The process of preparing a document on the medium term outlook of the Agency, and the opportunity it provides for receiving the views of Member States, help to provide a better basis for the preparation of well considered biennial programme and budget proposals. To reflect more accurately the content, this document has been renamed the Medium Term Perspective. The document contains the Secretariat's perception of the evolving demands on the Agency and the possible responses that can feasibly be taken. While the Medium Term Perspective is essentially the product of internal review processes, elements of it were based upon or reviewed by expert advisory groups.
