German Foreign Minister says Berlin is not going to pay reparations to Poland

The German authorities reacted to a document signed in Warsaw, on the basis of which Poland demands that official Berlin pay more than 1,3 billion euros in reparations for the years of Nazi occupation during the Second World War. Recall that recently the demand for reparations to Germany was officially announced by the head of the Polish Foreign Ministry Zbigniew Rau.

The reaction of the German authorities was not long in coming. German Foreign Minister Annalena Burbock said that Germany is not going to pay any reparations to Poland.

Burbock during a joint press conference with Rau:

The issue of reparations has been closed for us for a long time. This topic is not even discussed by us.

Thus, Burbock actually repeated the earlier statement by the head of the German government, Olaf Scholz, that “Germany has already made all payments following the results of the Second World War, including compensation and reparations, and therefore is not going to pay anything else.”
However, Poland is clearly not going to ease the level of political and economic pressure on Germany. But what is all this about?

The fact is that Germany is the largest creditor of the Polish economy. And for some time now, Poland has had to make increasingly large payments as part of repaying loans. In the Polish government, with their constant insinuations about reparations, they are trying at least to bring Germany to the issue of another debt restructuring with a typical "small-town" message in the style: "And you owe us even more." So far, the German elites remain adamant in this regard, but after the explosion of the Nord Stream gas pipelines, Poland has an additional instrument of pressure on Germany, because it is Poland that is now becoming the main recipient of pipeline gas in the north-east of Europe (from Norway), and Germany finds itself in a situation , which can lead this country to at least industrial degradation. In this regard, Poland's demands are reminiscent of a kind of blackmail from Berlin.

The Poles will not stop. They have gas, and they will be even worse than Ukrainians to whine about discounts.
In this they are the same with Svidomo.

By the way, the undermining of SP1-2 coincided with the opening of a gas pipeline to Poland from Norway .. Coincidence? I don't think
Germany is going to be robbed again, with Russia it has not worked out yet .. But the goal is the same

Have you seen the pipeline map?
The Baltic Pipe is a branch of the Norwegian-German gas pipeline.

It is strange that this pipe also "accidentally" did not explode, following our gas pipelines. She just has to explode. As well as transatlantic fiber optic lines.

Germany is going to be robbed again

—- The Germans surprised more than once. This is an organized, collected nation that has surprised the world more than once. And do not talk about two world wars. Underestimating them is more expensive. Their military spirit - has changed, like the samurai - among the Japanese. This is a competent, businesslike people of professionals, not amateurs.

—-They took in 2 million immigrants in 2015, and didn't choke. No need for violence against German women. Germany is the backbone of Europe.

And they will overcome the gas crisis. Adapt. Yes, there will be problems with industry and heating, but this is the nation of Bismarck, and not just Goethe. And industry will not be withdrawn from Germany.

— By the way, the Poles demand 1.3 TRILLION, not a billion. The article was wrong by three orders of magnitude.

And what about the transfer of Volkswagen plants to the USA?

They have only one thing in common, both lie under the United States! Everything else, this is already as they say in the Washington Regional Committee! Which is well illustrated by the situation with SP-1 and SP-2, where Germany is strangling itself and cannot do anything about it

There are explosions at the air base in the South Caucasus, air defense is working?!!

I don't even know, I don't follow the situation now I rarely even go to VO.

once again! Germans, only the land border with Russia will save you

[fiberboard]

Again the section of the Commonwealth rzhachka? Have you lost your mind? Why do we need this Polish herd? We now have a lot of problems without them. You just need to blow up the Polish-Norwegian gas pipeline too. And let the Old Man sell them firewood at exorbitant prices.

They will place "first strike weapons" in their psheks, which they have been asking America for a long time - you see, after a retaliatory strike there will be no "herd". And there is no "herd" - no problem.

I must be a Nazi and a cannibal, since I talk so easily about the extermination of millions of Poles. But they got too busy...

[Turtle]

No time for humanism. The Poles, of course, outwardly look like people, but you should not be mistaken about them. The theory of the "golden billion" is correct, but only the initially planned billion is not "golden".

[Boycott]

I guess I'm a Nazi and a cannibal

Let's define the terms, the cannibal is the one who eats people. And what does the organisms living between Belarus and Germany have to do with it? Judging by their behavior, they have nothing to do with the human race. So sleep well, comrade senior sergeant.

[Metallurg_2]

Psheks can be evicted to Canada, the diaspora already exists there.

Impose sanctions against Germany for starters.

Perhaps this is how all their hysterical statements about Russia and especially Germany speak for themselves (US support) is clearly visible.

Note - if Germany cannot ALL supply weapons to Ukraine, if Germany's influence is destroyed in Europe, if the transport hub for the supply of weapons to Ukraine - Poland is physically destroyed, then everything will be much easier with Ukraine.

So there is not "first" and "later", but everything is interconnected.

[Zadok]

what are we talking about? Poland territory, Germany without reparations. agreed on the results of VM2.

[197]

And I, in the place of the Germans, after a sabotage on the new Norwegian-Polish gas pipeline (I think there are, of course, not them, masters of such affairs), sent psheks to hell. One hell of a German Khan industry.

[St54]

Poles are stubborn people. For 10 zlotys they will tear anyone you want. And without brakes. Hard times await the Germans.

[Burma6]

Only 35 euros for each pole, not even enough for a pension. If I were a Polish opposition politician, I would demand a hundred times more and promise to turn everyone into a millionaire.

There is an error in the article. Not 1,3 billion, but 1,3 trillion (a thousand billion, for a minute) is demanded by Poland.

Boredom, if they had gathered, then the fun would have begun. We considered and decided: From the beginning, return Danzig and Lower Selesia to the rear, and then, maybe, go in the third quarter ...

Germans, think again! The hyena of Europe has already sharpened its fangs - and it won’t get off you just like that!
Only one more division of Poland between Germany and Russia will save Europe from Poland and from crises in general.

"Poland is now becoming the main recipient of pipeline gas in the northeast of Europe (from Norway)"...
Brad write in a note. Germany remains the main recipient of gas from Norway. The Polish gas pipeline is very weak, and it is not completely filled, and others will have to unfasten it from it ...

SP-1 and SP-2 will not be patched up this way next year, and Germany will deal with the dense "Polish dissonance".

She looks like Tikhonovskaya. The Pole decided not to risk it, in case the "madama" would come in handy.

Or maybe it’s better to return Danzig, and send the Poles to a showdown with Vilna?

[bombaher]

VO journalists can’t even rewrite the news correctly.
Not 1,5 billion Poles are demanding from the Germans, but 1,5 trillion. A trifle, isn't it?)

[petrol cutter]

What a twist!
And where is repentance, a feeling of endless and ineradicable guilt unrequited?
Germans don't respect Poland at all...

[ASM]

She's just incompetent. First of all, it is necessary to put forward the demand to the Poles for payment for the exploitation of German lands, which were received from the furious USSR. Restitution of these nonentities is called.

[Egoza]

The Poles completely swung: "reparations from Germany, money from Russia and land from the Czech Republic." You can also have a Golden Key on a plate with a blue border! )))

[alexey alexeyev_2]

You will pay. Where are you going to go .. America has put you in cancer.

Comrades Germans!
This attitude of Poland is a payment for supporting Nazism in Ukraine!
If Germany had not begun to support Nazism, then the Poles would not have been able to present anything, because Germany would have denied it!
And now - pay! )))

Russia is interested in a strong Germany. That it is being economically killed is not in the interests of Moscow. Berlin needs to be supported if we play long, it doesn't matter that Scholz is at the helm now

The Poles are limitrophes, they cannot demand anything.
A priori.
In the furnace such news.
In 38, the future bargaining and division of Ukraine (as part of the USSR)
was regarded by the Fuhrer as rudeness on the part of the Poles.
With all that it implies.
We read "Hitler's Table Speeches" and are surprised.

[Old Doctor]

What is so little required? In general, I propose a radical option. As in the 17th century - there is no Germany, there are many duchies, kingdoms. And Poland ... the Commonwealth from sea to sea!

[Div Divich]

If he doesn't want to, Poland will force him.

Nordic streams have been eliminated, now Germany will have to buy American and Norwegian gas in Poland, and there they will already make a mark-up for reparations.

Why is it so? They could have slobbered a few hundred lard to the beloved wife of the states in Europe. So to speak, within the framework of "the unity of the West."
