Poland demands compensation from Germany for World War II.

Poland is still seeking compensation for victims of the German invasion in World War II, Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski said in Berlin on Friday.

After attending the opening of the new Polish Embassy in the German capital, Sikorski said Germany could express its “regret at the horrible events” of the Nazi occupation by focusing on three elements.

These include a “gesture towards still-living victims,” the creation of a remembrance monument in Berlin, and an “investment in common security,” he argued.

Relations between Berlin and Warsaw soured considerably over the issue of war compensation under the Polish government of the nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party, which was in power between 2015 and 2023.

While ties have improved since Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s return to office, his centrist administration has continued to demand reparations from Germany.
