BENFIQUISTA DISGUSTED

The Soviets should be ashamed of themselves keeping hiding this unspeakable crime against humanity and their neighbours, the Polish nation.

They had pinned the massacre on the Nazis! Can you believe this!

The problem about the Russians is that they have always been bulies to their neighbours. It's no secret why after the collapse of the Soviet Union, most of the nations under Stalinistic rule rushed to break free from them and joined the European Union.

They have not been a friendly neighbour, mate. Ask the Checks. There are more bully nations in the world, but this is not the topic for today. Do you follow me?

There's now the issue about Ukrane, a country split between alegeance to Europe and to Russia. Watch this space.

There is no doubt that the the European Union will only confirm what everybody have known fora long time: The Russians slaughtered 20,000 Polish POWs.

They did more wrong stuff against the Poles. They encouraged them to rebel agaisnt the Nazis in Warsaw, then the Russian would step and would back them up. They didn't, and watched the massacre from the other side of the border. it was a trick to get the Polish elite decapitated so that there would be less resistence when they invaded Poland. It sucks

Europe court to rule on Russia's Katyn massacre inquiry

Poland has repeatedly demanded that Russia open all its files on the Katyn massacre

The European Court of Human Rights is to rule on Russia's handling of its inquiry into the 1940 Katyn massacre of more than 20,000 Polish war prisoners.

This comes after 15 relatives of the victims claimed that Russia had failed to carry out an adequate investigation.

They said Moscow had prevented them from finding out the truth about the killings in western Russia.

Soviet Russia only admitted to the atrocity in 1990 after blaming the Nazis for five decades.

It started a criminal investigation into the killings the same year, but the inquiry was discontinued in 2004 on the orders of the Russian chief military prosecutor's office.

Files about that decision remain classified, and the Polish claimants have not had access to it or any other information about the investigation.

No-one has ever been convicted in connection with the massacre, with Russian prosecutors arguing that those responsible are now dead.

However, in 2010 Russia's parliament issued a statement saying more work needed to be done in "verifying the lists of victims... and uncovering the circumstances of the tragedy".

The parliament also said that the killings had been carried out on Soviet leader Joseph Stalin's orders.

In 2010, Russia also published online six once-secret files on the mass killings. The documents had until then only been available to researchers.

Poland has repeatedly demanded that Russia open all its files on Katyn.

'Incorrigible enemies'

The killings were carried out by the Soviet secret police (NKVD) in April and May 1940 in the Katyn forest near the city of Smolensk, and also near the village of Mednoye, in the Tver region, and the village of Pyatykhatky in what was then Soviet Ukraine.

The victims were members of the Polish elite, arrested after the USSR invaded and annexed eastern Poland in 1939.

They were shot on the recommendation of NKVD head Lavrenty Beria, according to one of the published secret files.

In a letter to Stalin dated 5 March 1940, Beria says the Polish prisoners of war should be executed and refers to them as "steadfast, incorrigible enemies of Soviet power".

"Each of them is just waiting for liberation so as to actively join the struggle against Soviet power," it says.

The letter bears Stalin's signature in blue pencil, with the comment, "In favour".

In April 2010, Polish President Lech Kaczynski and more than 90 other government officials were killed when their plane crashed as it was trying to land at Smolensk airport to attend an event marking the Katyn massacre.
