Jozef Lenárt (3 April 1923 in Liptovská Porúbka, Slovakia – 11 February 2004 in Prague) was a Slovak politician. He graduated from a chemistry high school and worked for the Baťa company. He became a member of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (''KSČ'') and of the Communist Party of Slovakia (''KSS''). Lenart was a member of the federal parliament (whose name changed several times) from 1960 to 1990, and was Speaker of the Slovak National Council 1962–1963. He was also a member from 1971 to (?)1990. He served as Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia between 1963 and 1968. Although ethnically Slovak, he became a Czech citizen after the country had split in 1993. On the basis of insufficient evidence, on 23 September 2002 Lenárt was acquitted of treason charges (along with his co-defendant Miloš Jakeš), related to his handling (or lack thereof) of the Prague Spring events in 1968. He was accused of attending a meeting at the Soviet embassy in Prague on the day after the 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion, planning to establish a new ''workers and farmers government. Jozef Lenárt was one of the most resilient figures in Czechoslovakia's communist hierarchy, occupying one post or another in the leadership for no less than a quarter of the century. That achievement was all the more remarkable because his career at the top straddled a succession of regimes and several abrupt changes in policy. ==Major functions== *1950–1953, 1957–1966, and 1970–(?)1990: Member of the KSS *1956–1958: Leading Secretary of the Regional Committee of the KSS *1958–1962: Secretary of the Central Committee of the KSS *1958–(?)1990: Member of the Central Committee of the KSČ *1962–1963: Chairman of the Slovak National Council *1963–1968: Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia *1968–1970: Secretary of the Central Committee of the KSČ *1970–1987: First Secretary of the Central Committee of the KSS *1970–(?)1990: Member of the Presidium of the KSČ *1971–(?)1990: Chairman of the Central Committee of the National Front of the Slovak Socialist Republic, and Vice-Chairman of the Central Committee of the National Front of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jozef Lenárt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
