The Importance of the Middle East in the Discourse of Polish Emigration in the Face of the Threat of a Third Word War between 1945 and 1956

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the views of Polish émigré politicians, publicists, historians, and military officers on the strategic position of the Middle East region in the face of the outbreak of the Third World War between 1945 and 1956. The author shows the evolution of the position of “Polish London” in the subsequent years of the Cold War, determined by the growing political tensions between the USA and the USSR and their allies. He concludes that the Middle East was an important area for Polish political émigrés in London, where a global military confrontation could occur between the two warring political blocs.
