Polish Ambassador: Romanian President Personally Expressed His Sorrow At Kaczynski’s Death

Zajaczkowski thanked Romanians for their „flows of condolences” which, he pointed out, show that Romanians stand by Poland with empathy and solidarity.

Romania’s Foreign Ministry on Saturday expressed profound condolences to the Polish people, to the family of President Kaczynski and to the families of all those who died in the terrible accident.

A plane carrying Kaczynski, his wife Maria and other high-ranking officials crashed in a heavy fog in western Russia Saturday morning, killing all people aboard, Polish officials said.

Kaczynski was flying to Katyn, near Smolensk, for events marking the 70th anniversary of the massacre of thousands of Polish officers by Soviet secret police in Katyn and elsewhere during World War II.
