he didn't say "histeria" in his post - and you were personally histeriac about the dismissal of German Patriots by the Polish government - the sad truth is that Germany is (unfortunately not openly) hostile to Poland's interests and that Patriot stunt was cheap trick that would cost Germans exactly nothing

smog is not caused by power generation simple as that - if it were, Bełchatów, Turoszów and Opole areas would be among those most affected and they are not - smog is caused by low level emissions, just plenty of them and this is caused by burning coal - it happened so that coal was the cheapest option to heat your house not so long ago (we heat our house with coal for the very reason - I don't live in a city so, yeah, don't jump on me for causing smog in Kraków or Warsaw)

@Tacitus

maybe I am wrong but what I heard is that there is no definition on rule of law in the European treaties and if ECJ rules anything about it it would mean it is creating law not interpeting it or applying it (which means we are no longer in a democracy but in juristocracy) - not so long ago the current United States Supreme Court overturned the long established ruling of the Supreme Court on abortion (Roe vs Wade) argumenting that the previous ruling was an excess of power (since in the tripartition of powers courts are supposed to apply the law not to create it)

Russians run out of tanks, ammo, rockets etc etc in Ukraine and you envision a Russian war with NATO - think again

History / History of two Neighbors: Poland - Germany Interrelations [283]


first of all we don't need Patriots at the moment since Russia is not waging war on us - for Germans it was an empty gesture that would not cost them anything while there is unsettled question of billions in reparations - Germany is also (not so openly unfortunately) hostile to the current government

anyway your (German) narration that German Patriots cannot be given to Ukraine was refuted by no other than the NATO secretary general

History / History of two Neighbors: Poland - Germany Interrelations [283]


anyway Germany's minister of defenece's statement that Patriot systems cannot be given to Ukraine without consultations with other NATO nations were dismissed by the general secretary of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg - he said that it is a national decision

sure: then why part of the former Hungarian Kingdon part of the empire was given to the post-war Austria (based on ethinical criteria)

History / What do Poles owe to Hungarians? [275]


isn't it ironic that the winners of the 1st World War who wanted self-determination of nations elsewhere gave areas of Hungarian majority often bordering the carved down Hungary to their neighbours - also I never heard of any Hungarian officials publically voicing the desire of Hungarian authorities to collect the lands back - if you have, please do link them up

this is as significant as some fringe Polish nationalist wanting Lwów to return to Poland

they all bore German names that didn't mean a thing in German - they were simply germanised Slavic names


I'm sorry to have misrepresented the incident a bit - Piotr Najsztub had a valid driving licence in the time of the incident (from what I can gather after reading up on the subject) be he didn't have it on himself - back then having a DL with you while driving was compulsory (it isn't anymore thanks to digital technologies implemented by the police)


ok, I read up some more - it turns out Najsztub actually didn't have a valid driving licence since it was withheld by the police some time earlier becuase of his previous driving offences -

Edit: it turns out he kept on driving without a valid DL for 8 years (since the police has withheld his licence in 2009)

he was acquitted of causing a road accident not of driving without a valid driving licence - to be precise

News / Poland to officially demand $1.32 trillion WW2 reparations from Germany [457]


anyway - judges in Poland have complete independence ( save for a couple of them who have been suspended) as proven by plenty of verdicts that not only go against the wishes of the ruling party but also against the general sense of justice (for example a verdict on an influential journalist Piotr Najsztub (critical of PiS) has hit an elderly woman on a pedestrian crossing while driving without a valid DL and without current proof that his car was road-worthy - he was acquitted because as the judge said : it is impossible to state how speedy was the elderly woman while entering the crossing)

if you want to become a lawful owner of a plot of land you have to arrange a visit to a notary (i.e. you have to do it in person (the other option is a plenipotentiary but since you live abroad it would be even more complicated)
