"Whoever demands compensation only from Germany is hiding half the truth," we read in a German newspaper.
The German daily touched on Russia in the context of reparations. "Few have the courage to demand reparations from Moscow. The fear that it might be perceived as a provocation is too great, and the chances of success are too slim," emphasized columnist Artur Weigandt.
Poland is demanding reparations from Germany for World War II. But anyone who blames Berlin alone ignores the other half of the truth. Moscow also bears historical guilt, and it must be addressed. Poland was, after all, attacked from two sides, oppressed by two dictatorships, and exploited by two superpowers, writes Artur Weigandt for the daily "Die Welt."
"You can negotiate with Berlin, you can exert pressure, you can score points in domestic politics. But there is almost no one who would have the courage to demand reparations from Moscow," says Artur Weigant.
If Poland demands World War II reparations from Germany, it should demand the same from Russia, German columnist Artur Weigandt said in his latest column. He also accused the Polish authorities of hypocrisy, claiming that anyone who today only calls Berlin to account is concealing half the truth. A suggestion for President Karol Nawrocki also appeared in the media.
