“It is worth saying that Professor Senyszyn and Professor Engelking have something in common. Anti-Semitism was present in very specific political circles in Poland,” Jakub Maciejewski, a columnist for “Sieci,” said on the program “Strefa clash” (TVP Infi).
The wPolityce.pl commentator turned directly to Prof. Senyszyn, who was present in the studio.
When the professor joined the Polish United Workers’ Party, the leaders of the Polish United Workers’ Party in Gdańsk were people who took part in the campaign against the Jews in ’68. The lady didn’t mind. Similarly, Prof. Engelking saw no anti-Semitism in the PPR. Now your strategy is not to say, “I was in an anti-Semitic party,” Prof. Engelking, so you say, “It’s Poles.” No, specific environments. And we can point out – PZPR was an anti-Semitic party
Maciejewski said.
This is an old number. (…) Well, before the war it was exactly the same – I gave the example of Pińsk, where the Polish army killed thirty-four Jews…
– said Member of Parliament Joanna Senyszyn.
Operation Hyacinth
PiS MEP Dominik Tarczyński pointed out that the PZPR not only persecuted Jews.
The Hyacinth action against homosexuals is also the Polish United Workers’ Party. PZPR too!
noted the deputy.
