W okresie zimnej wojny państwa zachodnie wielokrotnie oskarżały blok sowiecki o wspieranie międzynarodowego terroryzmu. Odtajnienie wielu dokumentów pochodzących z archiwów byłych służb wywiadowczych w Europie Środkowo-Wschodniej umożliwiło weryfikację tych oskarżeń, pozwoliło również spojrzeć szerzej na powiązania państw socjalistycznych z ugrupowaniami terrorystycznymi. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie czynników warunkujących nawiązywanie i podtrzymywanie tajnych kontaktów między państwami bloku sowieckiego a organizacjami terrorystycznymi, wskazanie genezy tych kontaktów i przedstawienie ich rzeczywistego przebiegu, a w tym kontekście również doświadczeń PRL na tle innych krajów komunistycznych. The People’s Republic of Poland, the Soviet bloc and international terrorism: the determinants of secret relations in the Cold War period During the Cold War, Western states repeatedly accused the Soviet bloc of supporting international terrorism. The declassification of many documents from the archives of the former intelligence services in Central and Eastern Europe has made it possible to verify these accusations and has also made it possible to take a broader look at the links between the socialist states and terrorist groups. The aim of the article is to present the factors determining the establishment and maintenance of secret contacts between the Soviet bloc states and terrorist organisations, to indicate the genesis of these contacts and to present their actual course, and in this context also the experience of the People’s Republic of Poland against the background of other communist countries.

This article examines the development and history of the alliance between the Japanese Red Army (JRA) and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). It draws upon Arabic and Japanese sources such as memoirs like those penned by JRA leader Shigenobu Fusako, the 1971 propaganda film Sekigun PFLP sekai sensō sengen (Red Army/PFLP: Declaration of World War), statements by the PFLP and the JRA, and interviews conducted by the media with members of the JRA. The article traces the development of the JRA's ideology, how it came to view Palestine as the center of global revolution, and the logics underpinning the need for direct action by its members for the liberation of Palestine. The JRA's militancy represented a hitherto unseen aspect of support for Palestine rooted in anti-imperialism, anti-colonialism, and anti-capitalism outside the strictures of mainstream leftist action.

The aim of the article is to present the factors determining the establishment and maintenance of secret contacts between the Soviet bloc states and terrorist organisations, to indicate the genesis of these contacts and to present their actual course, and in this context also the experience of the People’s Republic of Poland against the background of other communist countries.
