SOPOT (Poland). Sept 1 (Interfax-AVN) - Russia and Poland have reached an agreement to create two joint centers to study the Katyn massacre, said Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
"The creation of Russian-Polish centers and institutions, which will study historical issues, including the Katyn massacre, show that we can achieve mutual understanding, step by step," Tusk said at press conference given jointly with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Tuesday.
Putin and Tusk are currently attending the events marking the anniversary of the beginning of WW II in Poland.
"We have agreed that the group on difficult historical issues will experience less influence from politics," Tusk said.
