Poland and Germany should unite, says Lech Walesa

when Slavs win they would write their history. Soon to be, very soon

:)

I envy your optimism and dedication... ;)

Crow, you can keep lying about it as much as you want, but the simple fact is that Poles joined together with Germans to fight against Serbs.

You're talking about something else. There was no popular movement to unite all Germanic-speaking nations.

Not amongst the mainstream population, McDouche! However there always crops up some adjit-prop fringe group which asserts its insane desire to re-annex fomer "Prussia" with the present German republicLOL

No, nothing apart from National Socialism.

i never denied power of EU, did i

I was referring to the previous poster's claim about there being a movement during the fall of the Berlin Wall.

They are already united. It's called the EU.

No need for more then that, God knows.

I wonder IF after their Russian romance failed would they be considering to have an real alliance with Poland?

As @PlasticPole 2013 wrote they are already united...in the EU and now much more economically united than 2013.

This shocked me.

A verdict is expected in the trial of a former officer in the East German secret police who stands accused of the murder of a Polish firefighter at a Berlin border crossing 50 years ago.

Martin Naumann, now 80, is accused of shooting Czesław Kukuczka in the back at close range on 29 March 1974 as Kukuczka walked towards the last in a series of control posts at a transit area in the divided city, having been told he had a free pass to escape to West Berlin.

Hard to understand why the trial is in Germany rather than Poland.

Trials almost always take place where the alleged crime was committed.

True, however the case now is happening as a result of a EAW from Poland who do prefer to try some cases themselves.

Germany's BILD made it to its headline now....

Google translation:

Berlin - Around 50 years after a fatal shot at the former GDR border crossing at Friedrichstrasse station, former Stasi officer Manfred N. (80) has been sentenced to ten years in prison.

The Berlin Regional Court found the 80-year-old man from Leipzig guilty of murdering the Polish victim. The defendant's defense attorney had called for an acquittal. It has not been proven that her client was the shooter, said attorney Andrea Liebscher.

The Berlin public prosecutor's office had requested twelve years in prison. The verdict is not final.....

Probably as much as it should be given his age. He'll do less than that probably, perhaps in a prison hospital.

I wonder about that though.....


Hasn't it????

I'm pretty sure it has. They tried to dispose of the records however they were found by a Polish researcher.

Yeah....otherwise he wouldn't hadn't gotten 10 years....it was known that the STASI tried to destroy every and all proof they got their dirty hands on...

Authoritarian regimes tend to do that. You don't need me to tell you though that Germany is strong on paperwork and maybe there was just so much that a lot slipped through the net.
