These words were very surprising. Platform spokespeople not only confirmed the continuation of reparations efforts, but emphatically stated that his administration would be more effective than his predecessor. – We will look for ways for Germany to finance Poland’s development not only through the EU, because Germany is a net payer in the EU and we benefit from it. PiS politicians only talk about reparations in Poland. They sent a note as a follow up. Our diplomacy will be able to effectively obtain claims for losses resulting from World War II – say Jan Grabiec.

We asked whether these funds would flow during the Sejm term that was about to begin – Yes. We will get a certain amount – Grabiec replies. And according to Arkadiusz Mularczyk, deputy head of the PiS Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is actually possible. – I am pleased with the announcement that this case will proceed. Alone I also plan to take further initiatives at international level. – I take these words at face value, but of course we will check them on an ongoing basis – said Arkadiusz Mularczyk.

Reparations to Germany. We are talking about big money

Let’s remind you. September 1 last year presented a report on the losses suffered by Poland as a result of German aggression and occupation during World War II. October 3 last year Minister of Foreign Affairs Zbigniew Rau signed a diplomatic note to Germany regarding war compensation. Poland demands, among other things, compensation for material and intangible losses amounting to PLN 6 trillion, 220 billion, 609 million and compensation for losses. January 3 this year the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the German Foreign Ministry had responded to the note. According to the German government, the issue of reparations and compensation for war losses remains closed, and the German government has no intention of entering into negotiations on this issue.
