Do not let go!

European foreign ministers are meeting today in Brussels to discuss the shooting down of the Malaysian Boeing 777. The „Rzeczpospolita” editorial staff calls for firmness against Russia. Without it, the Donbas tragedy will end up in the way the Smolensk investigation did.

Regardless of the causes of the plane crash of April 2010, in the Ukrainian case we have the right to consider ourselves victims of Russia. No matter if we believe in the Jerzy Miller's committee arrangements or if – quite the contrary – we are still trying to detect traces of assassination. Right after the tragedy took place, for a moment we felt united with Russia, maybe even grateful for their actions, yet the Kremlin has done its best to undermine our trust in their sincerity, their honesty and their disinterest. Today we have no illusions. Russia acted like a state terrorist. When it comes to the ill-fated Tu-154 M flight, Russia committed a number of errors, acts of negligence and manipulation. It is unusually ridiculous that the debris of the plane that belongs to the Polish state still remains scattered nearby the airport in Smolensk just like a heap of scrap. Hardly anybody believes it will ever return to Poland. We guess why. Keeping the Tupolev in Russia and the prolongation of the local investigation provides the continuous possibility of manipulating Polish politics by Kremlin. And what is also important – a possibility of misrepresenting the truth about the crash. The end of the Russian investigation and handing over the evidence to Poland would reveal all that Russians are trying to conceal. And what are they trying to conceal? We will probably never know.
