The Germans now have to pay because they insist that Moscow pays for the damage to Kiev. Never do Mickey Mouse politics.

The Polish Foreign Ministry has published a full list of demands to Germany for damage from World War II:

▪️To compensate material and non-material losses of 6.2 trillion zlotys (about $1.3 trillion)

▪️Compensate the victims of German aggression and occupation and their family members for the damage and harm caused to them

▪️ Take measures to return cultural property that was stolen from Poland and is in Germany

▪️To return the assets and liabilities of Polish state banks looted by the German state in 1939-1945, to repay debts incurred as a result of the activities of credit bureaus that financed criminal military actions of the Reich

Once again, this entire issue was already rejected owing to the former statute of limitations according to the West German treaty of 1952!

a full list of demands to Germany

PiS gangsters still demand reparations only from Germany? They refuse to go after RuSSia? So fekk them and their reparations. Justice must be!

As it was expected, Germans rejected PIS` official demand for reparations.

PiS are happy coz they actually never believed Germans would yield. What matters is that PiS can keep attacking Germany and pointing to it as one of culprits of the rising economic crisis in Poland. Rabid rightists, also in this forum, claim that Germany is blocking EU funds for Poland. Now they will also add the refusal to pay reparations to the basket of grievances.

Germans are to blame for all Polish misfortunes!!!! hahahaha

...as did the Poles reject those Rightist German nut jobs who demanded that ALL of former Prussia along with much current Polish border territory be "rightfully returned" to Germany!

Insanity cuts both ways, my friend.

'Couldn't agree more, Tacitus.
Yet, it seems to me that both sides are being quite unreasonable.
The entire discussion is fraught with so many legal ramifications (Veraestelungen), I wouldn't know where to begin!

The problem is that Polish nuts are in power while German ones aren`t, quite the opposite, they are in prison. :):) See the difference???

I appreciate the factual difference, yes, of course.
However, do you think that were others apart from PiSers were in power in present-day Poland, no such claims would have been filed?

They should demand reparations from Russia for decades of communist enslavement.

from Russia for decades of communist enslavement.

That is impossible coz Russians might point to the fact that it was communists Poles who ruled Poland for most of the period. And that would be a correct suggestion.

But Russia has officially declared itself the heir of the USSR which invaded Poland in 1939 together with Nazi Germany. So, to keep the balance of nature, Poland has to demand reparations for WW2 losses also from Russia.

PiS refuses and runs after Germany only. It is so unfair that I have no choice but to object to it.

My opinion hasn`t changed - either we demand reparations from both invaders or from neither. Isn`t it simple???

Germany has 40 billions euro for refugees, surely they can cough up something on a repayment plan?

40 billions euro

40 billions? Come on, PiS refuse to get up in the morning for 40 billions. They demand 1000 billions.

I don't oppose paying reparations to Poland. There is crime, so there must be punishment, too. Quite fair, isn't it?
But why do Polish government demand it so late? Nearly 80 years have passed.
And why only reparations from Germans while not from Russians? Why are only Germans bad guys and Russians are always innocent? This is not fair anymore.

Germany and Russia had a pact and invaded Poland together. Yes, Germans killed millions of Polish citizens. But Russians weren't so innocent. What about execution of thousands of Polish PoWs? Why not demand reparations from Russians, too?

If not legal, there is a moral statute of limitations on wars just as it is on slavery. I hope Germany will tell Poland to get lost.

Germany will tell Poland to get lost.

Not Poland, but PiS.
They already did.
