W środę, 16 maja, o godz. 18:00 w Bibliotece Głównej w Waterford otwarta została wystawa "Prawda i Pamięć. Smoleńsk 2010", która jest hołdem złożonym 96 ofiarom katastrofy lotniczej w Smoleńsku, w której życie stracił także Prezydent Polski Lech Kaczyński. Na wystawie prezentowane są także zdjęcia z żałoby narodowej po tragicznych wydarzeniach 10 kwietnia 2010.
Exhibition "Memory & Truth" Opened in Waterford by Kris Wisniewski On Wednesday May 16 in the Waterford City Central Library the exhibition "Smolensk 2010. Memory & Truth" has been officially opened. The exhibition is a tribute to 96 people killed in the plane crash in Smolensk, in which the Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his wife died. It also presents the national mourning after the tragic events of April 10, 2010. The exhibit in Waterford was organised by the Gazeta Polska Club, a group of readers of the Polish weekly, which attempts to continue independent investigation of the plane crash. In their opinion the official investigation, carried out by Russian officials, was full of mistakes and wrongdoings, which the Polish government did not protest against. "Smolensk 2010. Memory & Truth" exhibition has already travelled several European countries. It has been presented in the European Parliament in Brussels, in Cambridge and Dublin, but it was not welcomed nicely everywhere. The European Parliament has decided to censor it by covering the captions, which in opinion of some suggest Russia's bad intentions during the investigation. The opening board is still covered with a big red cross as the reminder of the censorship, which took place in Brussels. The home of the European Parliament was not the only place where the exhibition had problems. Some of the captions were also censored in Dublin, after the independent Councillor Mannix Flynn raised an issue of politically incorrect captions. "One of the goals of this exhibition is to turn attention of foreigners, but also of Poles living abroad, to the fact that we need to act together in order to start international procedures, for example by the European Commission, aimed at carrying out proper investigation. According to the EU regulations we need one million of signatures of residents of European Union in order to oblige European Commission to start such investigation," said Dariusz Wawak, one of the organisers of the exhibition in Waterford. The Polish priest, Fr. Emil Adler, added: "I believe it is good that the exhibition is presented here in Waterford. It is important to remember what happened and what affects us in some way. People want to find out the truth and want to know how it happened and why it happened. That urge to find the truth is always related with a sense of dignity, which we all have." The exhibition will be presented in the Central Library until the end of May and it is accompanied by a condolences book.
