The death of the Polish President and many other leading figures, Polish public life

The General Secretary wrote yesterday to the General Secretaries of Solidarnosc and the OPZZ, the two Polish affiliates of the ETUC, to express the ETUC’s deep sympathy and condolences with the people of Poland, following the tragic plane crash at Smolensk.

 

Many of the people who died were associated with, and known to the Polish trade union Movement” said John Monks, General Secretary of the ETUC. The tragedy is intensified by the fact that those on the plane were to attend the scene of another Polish tragedy, the massacre at Katyn of members of the Polish ‘elite’ during the Second World War. Tragedy has been piled on top of tragedy.”
