Notes

'Overview of history of Pol-R relations...\nNote that PiS policies on Russia had not so much harmed Rusisa as irritated Poland\'s EU partners (quoting Stanislav Gorka).\nAnd Yanukovich\'s vicotyr relieved P-R relations of the \'orange threat\' which had also been an irritant.\nAnd cites Sikorski: \'The first step of the new Polish government was cancellation of our veton on Russia\'s entry into the Organisation for economic collperation and development. This was still under the Bush administration. And it was precisely Bush\'s plan regardingn PRO that protoril the path for R-Pol negoatisions. We declared po svoei vole: the PRO objects on our territory will open for R. In Moscow they said: the Americans ordered you to do this. But that\'s no true. We ourlselves wanted people in R to be convinced : these objets serve the declared goal.\'\nCiting Marek Chikhotskii, expert from the Natolin centre in Warsaw: \'We understand one another best in issues of death and love. In this we, Poles, are much closer to you than to Germans or French. But in questions of historical experience we are dealing with huge plasty of distrust.\' etc...\nCites Anna Fotyga, former foreign minister under PM Jaroslaw Kaczynski, as in Oct 2010 accusing Putin and Tusk of a plot to kill Kaczynski; she commented on Putin hugging Tusk; Tusk is still in this embrace and she doesn\'t know when he\'ll ever get out of it.'
