Editor in chief of #Russia Novaya Gazeta Europe on exile posted a lengthy comment on the Russian “historic exhibition” at the #Katyn massacre memorial, about which I wrote a week ago:
The concept of ‘Spanish shame’ is widely known, but today I am experiencing ‘Medinsky’s shame’. It is a phenomenon that is difficult to define, where impostors representing your country commit unimaginable acts of villainy on a historic scale in order to justify their claim to power.
The Russian Military-Historical Society (RMHS) has sent a new delegation to the Katyn memorial complex, the site of the mass execution of Polish prisoners of war by NKVD officers. The new leadership is not sitting idly by and has already announced an exhibition entitled ‘Ten Centuries of Polish Russophobia’, which will take place right next to the graves of the murdered Poles.
Looking back over the atrocities committed by the Russian authorities in recent years, it is difficult to immediately think of an equivalent. This is not direct military aggression, nor is it the state’s extermination of its own citizens – here we are talking about something perhaps even more shameful.
Together with #Hitler, the Soviet authorities partitioned #Poland, deported and killed countless people, and in 1940 shot Polish prisoners of war. Afterwards, for decades, they pretended they had nothing to do with it, claiming that Hitler’s punitive forces were supposedly responsible for the shootings.
Rumour has it that the mighty Soviet Union behaved like a pathetic drunkard who hides his escapades from acquaintances because he is ashamed and afraid to admit to them. It was only towards the end of Gorbachev’s perestroika that they had the conscience to make a confession, when TASS published a statement to that effect in 1990. This was a step towards reconciliation with the Polish people, which is impossible without honesty. The USSR joined Alcoholics Anonymous fifty years after the deed was done.
In 2000, a memorial complex was opened at the site of the crime in the Smolensk region, and since then a wealth of archival documents has been published. And now, after numerous attempts to pretend that nothing had happened, the collective shame has spoken out loud and clear.
It turns out that ten centuries of Polish Russophobia are to blame for everything! It turns out that it wasn’t the #USSR that formed an alliance with Hitler to destroy Poland, and it wasn’t the #NKVD that committed war crimes, but simply that Poles are such innate Russophobes.
There is a huge mutual interest among intellectuals in Poland and Russia; take, for example, the figure of Adam Michnik, who published a joint book of conversations with Alexei Navalny. When people in Russia are jailed for calling for peace, Poland is the first to come to the rescue and save Russians from torture – hundreds of people have been able to leave the country since February 2022 thanks to the Polish government.
In a normal world, Poland is Russia’s key cultural and economic partner in Europe. But to achieve this, we must stop lying like the RMHS. It is deeply shameful.

„Pojedynek” – jest pierwszy zwiastun filmu Łukasza Palkowskiego. Gierszał, Linda i gwiazda „Gry o tron” w obsadzie
W sieci zadebiutował właśnie pierwszy zwiastun „Pojedynku”, nowego filmu w reżyserii Łukasza Palkowskiego, twórcy wielokrotnie nagradzanych „Bogów” i „Najlepszego”.
Ten thriller historyczny, zapowiadany jako międzynarodowa produkcja, opowie o nieznanym dotąd szerokiej publiczności epizodzie z polskiej historii, który poprzedzał dramatyczne wydarzenia w Katyniu. Znamy już datę kinowej premiery.
Film ma rzucić światło na losy tysięcy przedstawicieli polskiej elity, którzy w 1939 roku trafili do rosyjskiej niewoli. Przez sześć miesięcy najwybitniejsi naukowcy, artyści i wojskowi byli przetrzymywani i poddawani indoktrynacji, nie znając swojego dalszego losu. Fabuła „Pojedynku” skupia się na psychologicznej grze między ambitnym sowieckim agentem a jednym z więźniów – młodym, światowej sławy pianistą, którego złamanie ma być kluczem do kapitulacji pozostałych osadzonych.
Za kamerą stanął Łukasz Palkowski, a w obsadzie znaleźli się czołowi polscy aktorzy, tacy jak Jakub Gierszał, Bogusław Linda, Tomasz Kot, Julia Pietrucha, Wojciech Mecwaldowski, Anna Próchniak, Mateusz Kościukiewicz i Antoni Pawlicki. U ich boku wystąpiły międzynarodowe gwiazdy: Aidan Gillen, znany szerokiej publiczności jako Petyr „Littlefinger” Baelish z serialu „Gra o tron”, oraz Paul Freeman, pamiętany z roli René Belloqa w „Poszukiwaczach zaginionej Arki”.
Reżyser podkreśla, że scenariusz wywarł na nim ogromne wrażenie i poczuł potrzebę opowiedzenia tej historii szerszej publiczności, zwłaszcza młodemu pokoleniu. „Zrozumiałem, jak bardzo potrzebny jest nowoczesny film, który skusi młodego widza do zapoznania się i zaprzyjaźnienia z bohaterami naszej przeszłości. (…) Ja poczułem, że muszę opowiedzieć tę historię innym” – mówi Łukasz Palkowski.
Dystrybutorem filmu w Polsce jest Monolith Films. Kinową premierę „Pojedynku” zaplanowano na 27 lutego 2026 roku. Poniżej wspomniany zwiastun produkcji:
