Manifesto of the Polish Committee of National Liberation

The Manifesto of the Polish Committee of National Liberation, also known as the July Manifesto (Polish: Manifest lipcowy) or the PKWN Manifesto (Manifest PKWN), was a political manifesto of the Polish Committee of National Liberation (PKWN), a Soviet-backed administration, which operated in opposition to the London-based Polish government in exile.

It was officially proclaimed in Chełm on 22 July 1944, and shortly after, its text was personally amended by Joseph Stalin in Moscow, before being printed there as well. Printing in Poland was staged for the media by the Soviets.
