On September 1, Poland held events in the northern city of Gdansk and the central city of Wielen to commemorate the 86th anniversary of the outbreak of World War II. Polish President Nawrodsky delivered a speech at an event in Gdansk, raising the issue of Germany's war compensation. He made it clear that the German government should pay compensation. Poland has requested Germany to pay World War II compensation several times before. In 2022, the lower house of the Polish parliament passed a resolution demanding that Germany pay 1.3 trillion US dollars for damages caused by the Nazis during the occupation of Poland during World War II. The German government responded at the time that the related war compensation issues had already been resolved. Germany's then-Chancellor Scholz also said that if Poland were to ask Germany for World War II compensation, Germany might request a redrawing of the German-Polish border.
