Ryszard Kaczorowski, GCMG (['r??art kat???'r?fsk?i] (listen); 26 November 1919 – 10 April 2010) was a Polish statesman.
Between 1989-90, he served as the last President of Poland in exile.
He succeeded Kazimierz Sabbat, and resigned his post following Poland's regaining independence from the Soviet sphere of influence and the election of Lech Walesa as the first democratically elected President of Poland since before the Second World War.
He also passed the presidential insignia to Walesa, thus ending the 45-year long episode of the Polish government in exile.
