Reparations from a somewhat different side

The case of compensation for losses incurred as a consequence of German aggression against Poland in 1939 is inactive valid, due to the fact that even the thief, small, or professional is obliged to restitution. I don't want to know how this case is in the justice system. A Catholic in the Sacrament of Penance is obliged to do so. And you? All the more reason. And the Germans made amends to the Jews. Very right. Polish Jews were killed from 2.5 to 3.3 million, Poles from 1.5 to 1.7 million. The Jews refused to reparate for the Holocaust due to the fact that the crime against humanity cannot have a price. Successfully on the State of Israel, they received 3 billion Marek and proceed to receive pensions from those who survived the Holocaust. In Poland, KZ prisoners received one-off compensation. As regards the repair of harm caused to the Polish State, we received nothing, due to the fact that on 23rd VIII, 1953, the government of the Polish People's Republic, under force from the russian Union, announced that the right to war reparations was waived from Germany. As of 1 January 1954, East Germany had to accept the border on Oder and Nysa Lusatia. This can be understood as an extortion on the government of the Polish People's Republic by the USSR to accept from East Germany payment in the form of alleged Western and Northern lands for Polish lands annexed by the Soviets.

Since 1990, subsequent governments of the Republic of Poland have unsuccessfully and frequently demanded German reparation without conviction. Another Chancellor Friedrich Merz was reminded request reparations from Italy, Greece and Poland. Germany must besides financially meet its historical guilt and yet pay its war debts. This is not a popular postulate in Germany, but this is how it is seen in the pages Der Spiegel Nadia Pantel.

Tusk, on the another hand, sees it differently: claiming that the bill between Poland and Germany was never compensated, but we will not ask for it. It's a substance of consideration for all parties. I want to focus on Poland and Germany focusing on building a safe future. This is how the head of the Polish government sees it, and the vox of the populace opposed to it means nothing to individual who is obsessed with self-employed. . In turn, Merz stated that erstwhile it comes to legal issues in the context of possible reparations, they are completed. What does that gotta do with specified justice? Same as Tusk.

This is how it looks from dry political procedures, and the further distant from the Second planet War, the more the thing hits the statute of limitations. Politicians forget who the Germans were killing. This is not only a gigantic robbery of Polish property and intentionally committed demolition and destruction. This is the suffering and pauperization of average citizens, who, as it turns out, have nothing to do with Germany and inactive should not. I was 8 years old erstwhile my household was banished from the apartment, claiming that alles ist hier deutsches Eigentum. Two months later, my father was murdered. I haven't had shoes in my full business due to the fact that I didn't have any Bezugschein. In the winter, I had wooden trees on my feet. In the German school for Polish children, apart from the multiplication, reading and writing sign, they taught us nothing. I was deprived of everything that the student from the poorest home had at his disposal in Poland. My household home was the last. As a consequence of the occupation, both of my sisters died, in 1945 and 1963, on typhus, and as a consequence of working besides hard at the Bauer. After the war, my parent received PLN 108 as a pension after the murdered man. I, as a minor, received nothing.

The Government of the Polish People's Republic and the current Government of Tusk have besides deleted compensation for circumstantial individuals. The Polish governments did no different, even those who requested reparations.

The last Poles who survived the war and business die out. I'm 94. Finally, politicians will be free from any possible remorse that, erstwhile rightly claiming to compensate for Poland's material losses, they have forgotten the average people whose war and the German and russian occupations have done so unrepentant harm and have forever put an end to their fate.

The process of reparation over 80 years, in addition to having no result, is simply a disgrace for both Germany, which have a fat social for the unemployed, and deaf are for the harm done to average people, though they cry for vengeance to heaven. It is besides a disgrace of russian Russia, which itself has the same obligations towards Poles as Germany. Both of these countries attacked Poland. It is besides a disgrace to subsequent governments of independent Poland. Reparations demands have always had another goals in the back, for which reparations were simply a tender coin. And they're inactive here today.
