The outbreak of the German-Soviet War on 22 Juni 1941 created new political conditions in Europe in wich the settlement of the relationship between the Republic of Poland and Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was almost the necessity for the Polish authorities. The root causes for the agreement with its recent agressor and enemy were, according to General Sikorski’s Government, the possibility of taking care of the Polish population on the USSR territory as well as necessity of enlargement of the Polish Army based on recruits from the East. After long and difficult negotiations representatives of the two states agreed the conditions of the political compromise (under the influence of the British diplomatic service) and on 30 July 1941 the Polish-Soviet agreement was achieved, wich was called after the surnames of signatories as the Sikorski-Maiski Pact where both sides decided to restore diplomatic relations and were obliged to exchange embassadors. In the result of this agreement the polish embassy was reactivated in Moscow in the middle of August 1941. Prof. Stanislaw Kot was the first supervisor of the embassy.

In the years of 1940-1942 the Soviet authorities conducted mass deportations of Polish population from so called „Western Ukraine” and „Western Byelorussia”. Many thousand of Polish children started their lifes in Kazakhstan and wide regions of Norther Russia. They became unguilty victims of the Stalin’s regime and carried the consequences great policy of adults. During four mass deportation, according to the NKWD data available to scientists, about 320 thousand of Polish citizants were taken away. About 80 thousand went to Kazakhstan. It is very difficult to precise how many children were among those persons. It appears, however, that about 20 thousand Polish children were deported to Kazakhstan. What did the everyday-life of young Polish in stepp republic look like? Which problems created the Kazakhstan reality? The answer for those questions is very complex. But lots of memoiries allow to state that hard work and permanent dificiency of food determined years of their stay in distant republic. Brutal reality was rich with sufferings and troubles. The tragedy was deeper, because children, according to their nature, were much more endangered by the torments of compulsory existence and Kazakhstan life was much more difficult for them. In fact their life was a permanent fight to survive.
