If the plane crash that killed President Kacynski was planned in order to assassinate him, it is likely that much deeper politics is behind it, not just the optics of who outshines whom at a commemoration ceremony.
Here is some backround from a newspaper article of September 2009.

At it's simplest this incident might be viewed as a warning to other Polish politicians against putting Russia in a position where she feels threatened, or there could be more nuanced reasons for it within the game of politics between the two countries. If it is "just an accident", it is definitely an odd one.

Mr Obama scrapped the American missile shield, a darling of the Bush administration nominally intended to act as a nuclear deterrent in Europe to countries such as Iran, yesterday. . . .
His decision has angered many in Eastern Europe and on America's Right.
'Betrayal! The U.S. sold us to Russia and stabbed us in the back,' the Polish tabloid Fakt declared on its front page.
Polish president Lech Kaczynski said he was concerned that Mr Obama's new strategy leaves Poland in a dangerous 'grey zone' between Western Europe and the old Soviet sphere. . . .
The Bush administration always said that the planned system - with a radar near Prague and interceptors in northern Poland - was meant as defence against Iran. But Poles and Czechs saw it as protection against Russia, and Moscow too considered a military installation in its backyard to be a threat.
