Scandalous recordings of the European Commission on Holocaust Remembrance Day have appeared online. The recording, which features EU commissioners including Ursula von der Leyen, includes the names of Holocaust victims and the places where they died. At one point you see the words “Auschwitz camp” with the note “Poland” – there is no mention that Poland was occupied by Germany at the time. “As a German, the President of the European Commission certainly knows who is responsible for the crimes and who organized the Holocaust and led the Auschwitz camp, and yet she prepared and implemented this communication method very carefully,” said MP Paweł Jabłoński. in an interview with wPolityce.pl.PiS, former deputy head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This is whitewashing Germany’s responsibility for the crimes of the Second World War and attributing this responsibility to Poland – not directly, but through such associations that Poland would be responsible for them, since it was on Polish territory. This is an absolute scandal and there needs to be a government response. If it doesn’t exist, there will be more and more lies like this. I wonder if Tusk’s government will in any way dare to demand an apology and retraction of these lies
– he makes it clear Pawel Jablonskireferring to the EC video.
““Germany is pursuing a conscious policy to gloss over its responsibility for the Holocaust.”
This means that lies continue to appear in the public space about Poles having anything to do with carrying out the Holocaust, including: By using the false expression “Polish extermination camps”?
I think it is a mixture of ignorance, but unfortunately also of deliberate action, because Germany is pursuing a conscious policy of whitewashing its responsibility for the Holocaust. They often say that nameless Nazis are responsible for it, and since it happened in Poland, Poland probably had something to do with it. This is a consistently implemented historical policy, also because the Germans do not want to bear financial responsibility for their crimes
