Yevgeny Yevtushenko has died
Katyń was a political massacre of the Polish officer corps by the Soviet Union. Babi Yar was part of a genocidal campaign of extirpation against the Jews.
Katyń was a horrible crime. But you can't, and should not, compare the two.

Of course they're comparable. When you deliberately kill that many people the reasons are really beside the point.

NB: You're arguing your point against a native of Poland.
