Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said the authorities are going to send a note to Germany with a proposal to begin the process of negotiations on reparations. According to him, Poland must receive reparations from Germany so that Polish-German reconciliation will be exemplary, TASS reported.
"We will send a diplomatic note to Germany and call on them to start the negotiation process. We will achieve this on all possible platforms, in all possible ways," the office of Polish Prime Minister quoted the prime minister as saying.
"In order for the Polish-German reconciliation to be exemplary, we need compensation, because without them there will always be a sense of injustice between the Polish and German peoples," Morawiecki added.
In 2017, Poland set up a special parliamentary commission on the issue of receiving reparations from Germany. Berlin stated that it had no intention of paying reparations to Poland because Warsaw had officially refused reparations in 1953. On September 1, Polish authorities demanded that Germany pay reparations for the country's losses in World War II. The amount of reparations Poland estimates at 6.2 trillion zlotys (about $1.3 trillion), according to Kommersant.
