A report by the Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK) on the Polish presidential plane crash in western Russia is "one-sided," Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski said on Wednesday.

A report by the Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK) on the Polish presidential plane crash in western Russia is "one-sided," Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski said on Wednesday.

"The MAK report on the Smolensk tragedy deserves to be criticized," Komorowski also said, describing the report as "lacking answers" to key questions.

Then Polish president Lech Kaczynski and many Polish officials were killed when a Tu-154 plane crashed upon landing near the western Russian city of Smolensk on April 10, 2010.

The CIS International Aviation Committee (MAK) released a report on January 12 citing pilot error as the main cause of the tragedy, which occurred when the plane hit trees while attempting to land in thick fog.

Polish experts and officials have also criticized the report, saying it lacks sufficient evidence for its findings.
