Poland intends to demand military reparations from Russia
The Polish Sejm intends to make a claim against Russia regarding the payment of military reparations, stated Arkadiusz Mularczyk, the Head of the Sejm Committee on the Payment of Military Reparations in an interview with Rzeczpospolita news outlet.
“In the next convocation, the Parliament will have to prepare claims to Russia for compensation for damage inflicted on the country by the Soviet Union,” Mularczyk said. “I know that the Baltic States are ready to file such claims.”
He also noted that it's unlikely that the demand for reparations will be met because Russia is a country that does not respect international law. However, according to him, the claims should be filed anyway. The exact amount of compensation was not mentioned.
Earlier, Polish authorities stated that Germany should pay Poland military reparations for material damage and crimes against the Polish people committed in 1939 to 1945.
