Poland seeks reparations from Russia after GermanyPoland first wants to get reparations from Germany, and then may turn to Russia, said Polish state secretary Marcin Przydacz, the FT reported.
"Once there will be a success with Germany, the next step could be to launch such a discussion with the other oppressor," he said.
Earlier, Polish President Andrzej Duda said that Russia, like Germany, is obliged to pay reparations to Poland for damages and losses inflicted during World War II.
Last October, Poland demanded Germany to pay 6.2 trillion złotys ($1.3 trillion) in reparations. But Germany has repeatedly claimed it has no intention of paying reparations to Warsaw, which rejected them in 1953.
The Russian Foreign Ministry also called Poland's requests inadequate, adding that the country is trying to solve its own internal political problems by appealing to "historical revisionism."
