Smolensk became a totem around which the "wild tribes" could gather. It was created by PO people, who needed a hated enemy, around which they could unite. That enemy had become late President Lech Kaczynski, said Ewa Kochanowska, widow of the Smolenks victim.

The widow of Human Rights Ombudsman Janusz Kochanowski, who was killed in a crash of the Polish Air Force One in Smolensk, was a guest in the program dziejesienazywo hosted by Robert Mazurek.

“For years, I accepted the principle – every person responsible for a crime should be punished. Not for the sake of punishment itself or people's satisfaction, but for the sake of social order,” she explained.

Ewa Kochanowska pointed to those who according to her bear primary responsibility for the disaster in Smolensk. She listed the former Prime Minister Donald Tusk, who moved to become the President of the European Council, former head of the Prime Minister's Office Tomasz Arabski, who was subsequently appointed by Tusk as ambassador to Spain, former Minister of Foreign Affairs Radoslaw Sikorski, and others.

Prime Minister Donald Tusk once said that he takes full responsibility for the Smolensk disaster. - Let's see to what extent he will actually take that responsibility.” she added.

According Kochanowska, it is impossible for a governmental airplane to disintegrate to such a degree due to impact with a single tree.

“If normal and conscious-minded people could be convinced of such nonsense, this means that anything can be told. Who in the right mind could accept such explanation? It is incomprehensible how human emotions and reasoning could be manipulated,” she said.

Kochanowska confirmed that a new sub-commission established by Antoni Macierewicz, represents the culmination of her 6-year struggle for the true and fair investigation of the Smolensk disaster.

The second guest of the program, attorney Stefan Hambura, quoted the expert opinion prepared for the Military District Prosecutor's Office that points to the failures to act by Tomasz Arabski.

The coordinator of the visit to Katyn on April 10, 2010 and a head of the Office of the Prime Minister Tomasz Arabski has not issued the flight order for the aircraft TU -154M No. 101 on 10.04.2010. So, the required formal procedure for the organization of the flight has not been implemented in accordance with the requirements of section 3 par. 2 of the manual for VIP transportation called Instruction HEAD. This failure has created circumstances conducive to the occurrence of the disaster.
