Israeli delegation to visit Poland for Holocaust restitution talks
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAn Israeli delegation will depart tomorrow for Warsaw for a series of meetings with Polish government officials, amid local opposition to paying compensation to Jews whose families lost property during the Holocaust.
The Social Equality Ministry, which is leading the delegation, refers to the successful scheduling of the meetings as “an important and unprecedented political achievement.”
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said last week that his country would not pay such compensation because the Poles were also victims of the Nazis during World War II.
