- Poland's tragedy, in which we all share | Denis MacShane
The death of President Lech Kaczynski and the cream of Polish political leadership is a desperate loss. Let us honour his legacyThe word decimate does not begin to do justice to the tragedy that has befallen the Polish nation. Over the forests of Katyn, again, the national leadership of Poland has been wiped out. It is not just President Lech Kaczynski, but among the dead are Poland's finest military commanders, who had restored Poland's reputation as a great soldiering nation. There were also the governor of the central bank and other senior ministers.

He was a stalwart of the independent Solidarnosc trade union movement and fought to restore 大統領レフカチンスキの死とポーランドの政治的リーダーシップのクリームは絶望的な損失です
