September 1 this year is the 83rd anniversary of Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. On the same day, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the leader of the Polish ruling party law and the Justice Party, said that the Polish government will seek 6.2 trillionz from Germany for Germany Robot (about $ 1.32 trillion) compensation to make up for the loss caused by Nazi Germany's invasion and occupation during World War II. The German government has rejected Poland's huge claims on World War II issues and claims that its "position is unchanged."

It is understood that about 6 million Polish people were killed in World War II, including 3 million Poland Jews. The Polish capital Warsaw was razed to the ground in the 1944 uprising and was killed by about 200,000 civilians. Since the rule of law and the Justice Party (PIS) in 2015, it has repeatedly demanded compensation in Germany, but has not been proposed through formal channels. As early as 2019, a Polish ruling member proposed that the amount of loss of World War II was set to $ 850 billion, and the official compensation amount this time exceeded this expectation, with an additional $ 500 billion.

In this regard, the Leader of the Law and the Justice Party (PIS) Jaroslaw Kaczynski said at a press conference: "The amount we proposed uses the most limited and conservative method to calculate, there is any May increase. "

Civic Platform leader Donald Tusk said on Thursday that Karinski said that "has nothing to do with compensation", "this is an internal political movement, the purpose is to rebuild citizens' ruling to govern in power. The support of the party. "It is reported that in Poland, the law and the Justice Party are still leading in most polls. However, in recent months, the party has caused dissatisfaction with the treatment of inflation and the slowdown in economic slowdown. The party's advantage in the citizen's program has greatly reduced.

As Poland's largest trading partner and a member of the European Union and NATO, Germany has previously stated that all financial claims related to World War II have resolved. A spokesman for the German Foreign Ministry responded on September 1 that the German government's position remain unchanged and the issue of World War II compensation has ended. "Poland has given up further claims as early as 1953 and confirmed this many times. This is a foundation for the European order today. Germany insists on its political and moral responsibility for the Second World War itself."
