On September 17, political analyst and consultant Maksym Nesvytailov discussed a new twist in Poland's demands for reparations from Germany for World War II on his "Klochkotime" channel. Polish President Karol Nawrocki raised the issue, stating that Germany should pay Poland €1.3 trillion. Official Berlin responded by affirming that the issue is closed both legally and politically but maintained support for Poland in countering Russian aggression.
Nesvytailov highlights that the demands come at a critical time when European unity against external threats is vital, with Germany a key investor and ally of Poland. He views Nawrocki's statements as more populist and oriented toward internal audiences, which does not encourage constructive dialogue at the leadership level.
The review contrasts Poland’s political approaches toward other countries, including Russia, and analyzes current tensions within Polish society and attitudes toward Ukrainians. The author notes that this immature political approach may hinder Poland’s strategic goals within the EU.
Nesvytailov calls for broad dialogue and constructive cooperation among European countries and stresses the importance of following informational channels to better understand international relations.
