A terrible loss for Poland, a feeling shock that wont leave our minds.  (Though one can't understand how so many prominent officials were aloud to take the same airplane.) The objective of this trip was the memorial ceremony of the Soviet massacre of the Poles at Katyn. Maybe this tragic accident will have the sad side effect  to make people around the world aware of Katyn in a way the peaceful delegation would maybe not had. In this respect the recent horrible accident adds to the tragedy of Katyn and underlines the historical guilt - a problem that, at last, it seems the Russians are willing to address. My condolences to the families and friends of the deceased from the bottom of my heart!
