Poland considering demanding WWII reparations from Germany
Poland is considering whether to ask for reparations from Germany for damage caused during the Second World War.
An analysis of whether Poland can make a claim is being prepared by the research office at the country's parliament, according to an MP with the ruling Law and Justice party.
Arkadiusz Mularczyk, the politician who requested the report, said he expects it to be ready by 11 August.
Last week, the leader of the Law and Justice party said conversations were being held about the amount Germany could owe.
On Tuesday, Poland marked the anniversary of the start of 1944's Warsaw Uprising, which led to the deaths of 200,000 Poles and the near destruction of the capital.
In one of the speeches made by those attending the commemorations, defence minister Antoni Macierewicz said Germans need to "pay back the terrible debt they owe to the Polish people".
Nearly six million Polish citizens are estimated to have died during the conflict, with a huge amount of damage being caused across the country.

Re: Poland considering demanding WWII reparations from Germany
IF successful, I reckon Germany would have to enter into an "installment payment plan" over quite a few years, considering the €€billions€€ that would be involved...
