Poland in shock


“This is the most tragic event in the history of Poland outside wartime,” Tusk said in a televised speech. “Such a dramatic event is unprecedented in the modern world.”

A few days ago the Polisn President Lech Kacynski and the central bank Governor Slawormir Skryzpek died when their plane crashed in Russia when they were coming from a commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the massacre made to Polish officers .All 96 people on board were killed.

The thing that proceeds in this case is so establish a temporary president for Poland and in two weeks call for elections. The problem here is that two candidates for president are dead along with the majority of the leaders of the opposition party.

I think it will be harder than politicians though to choose a new president for Poland.

I’ve seen in the newspapers that by know things will be like this: A deputy governor of the central bank will be temporary governing; and in April 12 there will be a meeting to discuss how things should proceed for the next elections.

People from Poland are in shock and we can prove it by the way they are acting. In front of the presidential palace thousands of people are lighting candles and praying. Churches around the whole country announced special services to pray for their deaths.

I think the peoples reaction is normal, I really wouldn’t know how to act if the president along with half of the gabinet. I would totally panick cause I wouldn’t know how things would be working nor what will happen to us.
