Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the late president's brother and the country's most powerful leader, is quietly backing away from actively promoting a theory that it was Russia that brought the plane down. But there are other signs that Kaczynski is easing up on promoting the theory that Russia assassinated a Polish president who had denounced Russian actions during the Russia-Georgia war of 2008. Macierewicz opened a new investigation into the crash after Kaczynski's Law and Justice party won elections in 2015, seeking to prove his suspicions. For Rafal Trzaskowski, a lawmaker with the opposition Civic Platform party, this theory is simply a "cynical political game." Some say that there is no final report because the assassination theory is false and no proof of it can be found.
