martial law. We're going to release Mr. Węca. We're going to start negotiations with the Solidarity movement. And I scurried right over to Poland, and I said I would help to advise both the government and the opposition. Then came elections for the first time in Central Europe in 45 years, and suddenly I was the main outside advisor of the first post-communist government as the iron curtain was falling. And I helped them through their economic and political and geopolitical labyrinth, and things worked out quite well. And from their Mikhail Gorbachev's team called me, said help us. Soviet Union's got lots of trouble. And so I started working with the economic team of President Gorbachev. Then, of course, as people know, the Soviet Union came to an end, and President Yeltsin's team said help us. And I said, okay, I will work with you. And I spent a number of years around the region of Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, which became Czech Republic, and Slovakia, Slovenia, (7/45)
