Poland buries Kaczynski


The nation buried its president Sunday:
The leaders of Poland and Russia attending the state funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski said on Sunday his death in a plane crash in Russia must serve as a catalyst for reconciliation between the two Slavic nations.
Many leaders could not attend because of the flight bans, but Medvedev made it a point to go, flying despite the bans. Other leaders, like Barack Obama, could not make it despite previously committing to attending.. As unfortunate as the circumstances might be, it's always interesting to see how different countries bury their leaders.
