The irony of President Lech Kaczynski dying in Russia on his way to the KATYN murders commenerartion is ammplified in theseparagraphs from a BBC story
"Lech Kaczynski, who was elected president in 2005, used this right to carve out a role for himself in foreign policy.
He pursued an arms-length policy towards Russia. This saw as much attention being paid to defending Georgia's independence, and that of Ukraine, as a drive for better relations with Russia relations spearheaded by the government of Prime Minister Donald Tusk. "
