– This is a bad scrape that is not allowed in the Speaker of the Senate, a former dissident against totalitarian power. Even if Russia adopted a its negative list, that the funeral could suspend its operation. I think it shows in Russia – Sikorski said Tuesday at a press conference in the Parliament.
He added, that, in agreement with Borusewicz decided on Monday that “no other country will decide on the composition of the Polish parliamentary delegation and, therefore, the delegation will not at all.”
Sikorski also confirmed that the Polish special plane, which was flying a delegation to the funeral Nemtsov, did not get permission to land in Moscow. – As a person with diplomatic passports (Borusewicz) do not need a visa, so as I understand it, the Russian side said that (special plane) will not be admitted if acquainted with the proposed list of passengers – said Speaker of Parliament.
Asked if the funeral Nemtsov should go to Moscow, the head of the European Council and the head of the European Parliament, Sikorski said: “Everyone shall take such decisions, as with its own sense of time, taste, such a political sense. “
inquired whether the funeral Nemtsov – in situation prohibiting entry to Russia for Borusewicz – it should not go another important Polish politician, Sikorski said: “Poland is represented at a higher level than most other European countries – a representative of the president, the government representative in the rank of deputy minister.” As noted, in the sense of protocol, funeral Nemtsov is not a state.
According to Sikorski, Poland – as a neighbor Russia – is more sensitive to the fact that the values of democracy, which fought for the Germans, not died. – More than any other, we are also concerned about the direction of the evolution of Russian policy, hence the wave of sympathy for Nemtsov and all Russian democrats – he noted.
Sikorski also said that he is personally shocked by the murder Nemtsov. – Russia’s political evolution makes me more and more anxious, because it is not the first such murder – said Speaker of Parliament.
On Tuesday, parliament commemorated Nemtsov. In a resolution adopted unanimously Members expressed the expectation that the circumstances of the death of Russian dissident will be explained, and the perpetrators do not go unpunished.
