Trump administration pressuring Israel to go easy on Poland over Holocaust law
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Trump administration is pressuring Israel to dial down its diplomatic row with Poland over the controversial Polish Holocaust law that makes it illegal to claim Poles or Poland were complicit in Nazi crimes in World War II.
“The Americans told us they don’t like the Polish law, but emphasized that Poland is an ally of America and Israel and we have to be careful,” Channel 10 quotes a senior Israeli official as saying.
The report also says that US Vice President Mike Pence asked Israel’s opposition leader MK Isaac Herzog to tone down his criticism of Poland when the two met last month.
