As the minister told reporters, "this is a matter of the state honestly clarifying what happened," and the report of former Interior Minister Jerzy Miller "explained in detail the causes of that terrible disaster" in an honest, comprehensive and profound way
"This is an official document, which, of course, people like Mr. Macierevich have tried to destroy in recent years," RIA Novosti quotes the current head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In December last year, the press secretary of the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov, said that the Polish authorities refuse to face the truth and recognize the crash of the Tu-154 with Lech Kaczynski near Smolensk as a tragic accident.
Kaczynski's plane crashed in 2010 while landing at Smolensk-Severny airport, killing 96 members of the Polish delegation.
Polish prosecutors demanded the arrest of three air traffic controllers who were working at the Smolensk-Severny airfield on the day of the plane crash.
At the time, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev called Warsaw's plans "Russophobic hysteria." He stressed that the arrest or extradition of Russian citizens to the Polish side is impossible.
