Václav Nosek


Václav Nosek was a Czechoslovak Communist politician who served as Minister of the Interior from 4 April 1945 to 14 September 1953. Despite the fact that he never hid his Communist sympathies, he had spent World War II in exile in the United Kingdom, unlike most Czechoslovak Communists who were in the Soviet Union at the time. Czechoslovak democratic politicians considered him one of the "good" Communists.
