Navrotsky demands reparations from Germany for World War II

Navrotsky believes it is necessary to resolve the issue of reparations from Germany in order to build a partnership based on truth and good relations.

I demand it unconditionally for the common good. Reparations will not be an alternative to historical amnesia, but Poland, as a frontline state, as the most important country on NATO's eastern flank, needs justice, truth, and clear relations with Germany, and it needs reparations from the German state.

Karol Navrotsky

President of Poland

Navrotskyi said this on September 1 at Westerplatte, where celebrations began on the occasion of the 86th anniversary of the start of World War II.

He also called on the government to support the demand for reparations from Germany.

I believe that the Prime Minister and the Polish government will strengthen the President's voice on the international stage, and together with our Western neighbors we will build our truly secure future.

On January 3, 2023, Warsaw officially appealed to the UN leadership to support the Polish initiative for Germany to pay war reparations to Poland for the wrongs caused during World War II.
