Answer 2

Two differences and two similarities between ‘Pinochet's rule in Chile’ and ‘Communist rule in Poland’:

• Chile was ruled by a military dictator General Pinochet. He was supported by the United States.  

• The General supported the big capitalists in his country.  

• The communist party was led by General Jaruzelski in Poland and was supported by the Soviet Union.

• The Communist party was ruling on behalf of their workers.

• In both the situations in Chile and Poland, the military officers had a lot of power and authority and no one could question them.  

• In Poland too if anyone spoke against the leader of the party they would be imprisoned.  

• No one could express their opinion or raise voices against both the government.  

• There was the absence of ‘free and fair’ elections in both Chile as well as Poland.
