It is uncertain whether the accent in A should be interpreted as short, which is indicated by its size, or as long, same as two subsequent in this bar. We give preference to the 2nd interpretation. Omitting the mark in FE (→GE,EE) is almost certainly a mistake, as Chopin's deletion of an accent marking the beginning of a five-element progression seems to be totally unlikely.
