In this country, too, it is known why the Polish government is demanding astronomical reparations from Germany more than 70 years after the war: Because the PiS party, under its chairman Kaczynski, who does not love Germans, wants to mobilize its voters, which unfortunately still does you with this issue succeed.
In the meantime, however, the safeguards of political common sense seem to have blown in Warsaw, as the threats made by the Polish Deputy Foreign Minister at the start of his first visit to Berlin show.
Among other things, he said that it would be "very bad for our neighborhood" if Germany did not finally start negotiations on the requested 1.3 trillion euros.
Not since the fall of the Iron Curtain
Do people in Warsaw believe that bad relations between Poland and Germany would only be bad for Germany?
It is more than astonishing that Poland is opening the box of reparations, in which the topic of the German eastern territories should also rest in peace, at a time when it is so dependent on the solidarity and support of its allies because of the Russian aggression not since the fall of the Iron Curtain.
Since Warsaw likes to talk about German forgetfulness and in its anger now wants to get the EU involved: has anyone on the Vistula forgotten who was the strongest supporter of eastward enlargement?
Who has been paying into the pots from which billions are flowing to Poland for decades?
