Short bio

While in Trade Bank and the Ministry of Finance, Kisiel regularly participated in crucial government debated concerning economic policy. He also co-signed many reports and decisions concerning debt-taking. In the first half of the decade, he strongly supported the economic policy and actively marginalised members of the leadership raising concerns against it. However, in the late 1970s, he discreetly criticised the continuation of the economic course.
