Reparation demands are quite a useful tool for Polish politicians. Whenever there’s a political scandal or an unpopular new law they can just demand some reparations from Germany as a distraction. The answer will always be “no” and the media will direct their anger at that for a couple days.
Also, presidential elections in May. They have to one-up PiS in being PiS because it sells and a copy is the only thing they can come up.
Haha I bet the politicians in my country wish they had a useful distraction like that
Such an obvious play lmao.
The compensation of Poland according to wiki concluded per 1953:
“The Provisional Polish Government concluded the Polish-Soviet Reparation Treaty on 16 August 1945. The treaty allocated Poland’s share of confiscated German machinery, goods and raw materials. Furthermore Poland received 15% of the German merchant fleet acquired by the Soviet Union. Deliveries were overseen by a joint Polish-Soviet commission and lasted until 1953”.

Germany paid Poland a lot already…?
A bit early, aren’t we? Most countries are just now paying reperations for slavery and colonialism. Poland’s gotta wait their turn. /s
Poland has no legal base for reparations against Germany anymore as they waived their rights to it.
If they want to burn their money fine, but it will end up exactly as the stupid Bavarian “Toll but just for foreigners” - Project.
Nothing to show, but lost millions for the taxpayer
