Shocking confession of an intelligence officer: They planned April 10!

Published: December 29, 2017

The shocking echoes of the Smolensk disaster keep reaching us almost 8 years after this tragic event. The subject of the tragedy became one of the most controversial in our country.

Although the Civic Platform politicians have for years maintained that both they and the Russian side have nothing to be sorry for, the PiS supporters, the patriotic segment of the Polish society, and families of the victims have a completely different opinion in this matter.

The words of Ewa Kopacz who served as the minister of health at the time of the crash and later was promoted to the position of Prime Minister of the Republic of Poland that “the earth (at the crash site) was excavated into a meter deep” have passed to history as a monumental lie since the victims' remains and their personal belongings could have been found at the crash site months after the disaster.

The event itself, as well as the investigation that immediately excluded any sabotage leave a lot of doubt. Hence, it is not surprising that all sorts of unreasonable conspiracy theories flourish.

- You have a day off, it's nice weather, go for a walk – the Intelligence Agency Officer Piotr Wroński heard from his superiors on the day of the Smoleńsk catastrophe, when he tried to find out if the state of increased readiness was in force. With the passage of time, he is more and more convinced that the assassination took place in Smolensk.

- On April 10, 2010, chaos combined with inaction prevailed in all Polish special services. A friend from ABW called me surprised that nothing really happened there - says Colonel Piotr Wroński.

- On Monday, with a friend, with whom I went to work together, we put on black ties. In the hallway somebody told me that I should not be fooled and should not make any political demonstrations (...). He shocked me - relates the officer.

Such comment by itself is already incredibly shocking. In the face of such an enormous national catastrophe, someone called the mournful clothing accessories a "political manifestation." Is it possible that this person was charged with the task of providing security for the Polish state and its citizens? According to the former employee of the Intelligence Agency, all Polish services should be put on alert as early as April 10.

- If we have an extraordinary situation, and in this case we had the tragic death of the President of Poland and 95 accompanying extraordinary people, then every security service in the world a priori assumes that the attack took place - he says. All theories should be carefully examined and not rejected upfront for political reasons. Piotr Wroński reminds us that the Deputy Minister of Defense responsible for the purchase of arms for the Polish army died in the Smolensk catastrophe. His tragic death delayed our negotiations with the US and gave Russia time.

- Scelus in fecit cui prodest - the crime was committed by the one who benefited from it. Who benefitted? The Russians and the governing (PO/PSL) camp in Poland - the Polish officer gloomily replies. He is upset with Donald Tusk, who on the day of the Smolensk tragedy was embracing Mr. Putin, then Prime Minister of Russia. - Putin took the initiative. I saw his icy face. He knew exactly what he was doing. (...) Considering the absence of the (Polish security) services, considering the fact that the assassination thesis was eliminated upfront, one can come to the conclusion that the Polish government was genuinely interested in getting rid of some people - says Wroński, who for six years worked in the Polish diplomatic mission in London and provided protection for many foreign visits of the President and Prime Ministers of the Republic of Poland. In his opinion, the then functioning procedures worked well but on April 10, 2010 they were not implemented at all.

- How is it possible that the airport did not know about this flight less than two days before the flight?! I learned about for example a private visit of President Kwasniewski from the telegram almost a month earlier - says the officer appalled at the preparation of the visit.

Very significant are also the differences pointed out by Officer Wroński in the media reporting about this air disaster of April 10, 2010. - I had two televisions and two computers. At the same time, I watched Rossija1, TVN24, BBC and CNN. (...) What did I see? Less than an hour after the crash, the Russian TV spoke of pilots' error. I was surprised when the Polish nationwide broadcaster TVN24 repeated this speculation two minutes later. With a question mark, but they kept repeating it. Meanwhile, on the BBC and CNN, I saw that different scenarios were considered, including the attack - he says.

- I also noticed that the Russians started to block the airport (in Smolensk). I worked for 20 years "in this country." I know them. I know what a mess they have. They would not be able to lift within 15 minutes so many units to secure the Smolensk airport after the disaster. I realized that it was not about securing evidence but rather isolating it.

I immediately asked myself: where are our people? Where is the embassy? I know that some time had to pass, but immediately a group of special service officers should have been dispatched there," adds Wroński. In his opinion, the Polish side did not properly secure the crash site. In his opinion, in the criminal sense, the Russians destroyed the crash site. The officer also claims that there are intelligence officers in every Polish embassy and they should have been sent immediately to Smolensk, whether from Minsk, Moscow, Kiev or Vilnius, even for the price of blowing their cover. When the whole world was watching the Smolensk catastrophe, the Russians would have not blocked the Polish security services. Unfortunately, Putin's people took all the initiative in the case.

According to Wroński, everyone, in particular the Polish ambassador to Moscow Jerzy Bahr, should have used their diplomatic status not to allow the Russians to enter the area of ​​the disaster. It did not happen. The lieutenant colonel Wronski has serious concerns about the presence on the spot of Russian special services, including OMON and Specnaz.

- Specnaz was most likely tasked with quickly collecting items important for the intelligence services, namely personal and business documents, but first and foremost all telephones, all means of communication (...), and black boxes. The Russians have actually stolen them. As a result, we only have copies (from black boxes).

After the Germanwings catastrophe in the French Alps, the Germans flew to recover the data recorders, which they sealed and examined at home. After Lackerbie it was the same. And in our case? - Wroński asks rhetorically. The entire laptop of the Head of National Security Bureau has not been found until today…

The officer working in the security service for 30 years also notices an extremely hasty takeover of the offices previously occupied by the tragically killed President Lech Kaczyński by the immediately appointed interim head of state Bronisław Komorowski. He also has a grudge against Antoni Macierewicz for getting into a complicated discussions (on the cause of the crash), instead of revealing facts that can be easily understood by the public like negligence in the procedures and preparation of the visit. Macierewicz was pushed into a debate that exhausted the Polish people and blurred the picture of events. Wroński does not blame the MP, today Minister of Defense, but he considers this to be his mistake. The mainstream media are also guilty here. Jointly with the PO/PSL camp, they uniformly opposed the Macierewicz camp.
