Russia's relations with Poland have not been easy for centuries. Unfortunately, even now there is little positive in them. The fuss over Katyn, which erupted on the eve of the celebration of the 65th anniversary of our Victory in the Great Patriotic War, with the strange crash of a Polish plane near Smolensk and confused statements at the highest level, does not add any positivity. One gets the impression that certain forces, both in Poland and in Russia, do not need the truth in this matter. A book by publicist and political scientist V.N. The Swede should promote mutual understanding between Russia and Poland, the establishment of friendly relations between the Russian and Polish peoples. Based on an in-depth analysis of archival documents and evidence concerning the death of Polish prisoners of war on Soviet territory, the author convincingly proves that it is premature to put an end to the Katyn case. There are many ambiguities here, although some conclusions can be objectively drawn now.
