Adam Rapacki (24 December 1909 – 10 October 1970) was a Polish politician and diplomat

Biography

Rapacki was born in Lemberg, Austria-Hungary (modern Lviv, Ukraine) on 24 December 1909. He was a member of the Polish Socialist Party from 1945 to 1948 as well as its successor, the Polish United Workers' Party. He was also a member of the Politburo of the Central Committee up until 1968, on board as the minister of seafaring and the minister of higher education and research.

From 1956 to 1968, he was the foreign minister in the cabinet of Józef Cyrankiewicz. As a Foreign Minister, he was especially close to the director-general of the Foreign Ministry, Przemysław Ogrodziński, a man whose background as a socialist turned communist was precisely as same as his, and who served as his principle adviser. As a Foreign Minister, Rapacki was considered be one of the leaders of the liberalising wing of the United Workers' Party, known for favoring easing repression and censorship, which gave him a certain popularity.

On 2 October 1957, he presented at the United Nations his plan for a nuclear-free zone in Central Europe (comprising Czechoslovakia, Poland, East and West Germany) — known as the "Rapacki Plan".

Rapacki died in Warsaw, aged 60, on 10 October 1970.
