Is PiS taking the Robert Biedroń approach to European elections? The party has put up several current ministers for the upcoming European elections, but a spokeswoman (also up for election) refuses to confirm they will take up their seats if they win.

Nice piece from - not denying the bad, but focusing on the good (and there is much of it), and on genuine ties between people.

Polish state television has now changed the falsified quote from Hannah Arendt (with no apology or announcement of a correction). However, the whole report's manipulative false equivalence between Jewish and Polish "collaboration" remains online.

Exactly. We've almost got used to it by now, but sometimes the utter weirdness of the new arrangements can still strike us.

Właśnie o to chodzi. Cały materiał jest skandaliczny, niezależnie od treści cytatu.

According to the Mayor of Świdnica (as related by ), part of this story is false. The Wrocław part of the story appears to be true. Journalists really need to get their facts straight when emotions are running so high.

The false equation of Jewish and Polish "collaboration" is a popular line on the right in Poland (even suggestions that Jewish "collaboration" was greater), with no attention to vast differences in context. In 2018, PM Morawiecki equated "Polish [and] Jewish perpetrators".

Polish state television news tells its viewers there was widespread Jewish collaboration with the Nazis in the Holocaust, while minimising instances of Polish collaboration. The report even falsifies a quote from Hannah Arendt to support this comparison.

Z możliwością przedłużenia (tak chciały ŻIH i Miasto). Konkurs nieobowiązkowy. Tak, Minister ma prawo. Wszystko zgodnie z przepisami. Wolałbym tylko, żeby Pan był szczerszy o tym co się dzieje (czyli wątpliwości polityczne co do prof. Stoli ze strony rządu). Zobaczymy, co dalej.

Yep, that has been the aim since day one. The funny thing is that it hasn't even achieved this more manageable goal. The foundation is a laughing stock among voters and even right-wing journalists.

International journalists! Who wants to go on a "study trip" to learn all about Polish history from the Polish government's very own PR foundation? Israeli journalists - you get to go first! For your convenience, information on the programme is so far only available in Polish.

The Poland-Israel crisis is playing out differently this year from last year, with the US appearing to take a stance more critical of the Israeli than Polish side. Last year, the focus was on Poland's dubious history law; this year - on offensive comments from Israel's FM.

The V4 summit in Jerusalem "will not go ahead," says Czech PM. In Poland's absence, the Hungarian, Slovak and Czech PMs will still go to meet with Netanyahu for "bilateral talks", but without the formal tag of the V4 summit.

Zgadzam się - przede wszystkim po wstrząsających słowach szefa izraelskiego MSZ, za które Polska ma prawo żądać wyjaśnień. Rok temu "wina" leżała zdecydowanie po stronie Warszawy. Z perspektywy polskiej racji stanu, cały czas mamy do czynienia z konsekwencjami tej klęski.

None of this means that Poland should not correct false narratives, and it does not justify the recent words of the Israeli FM, for which any Polish government would have every right to demand an apology.

For domestic political gain, Poland's government has done incalculable damage to the country's image since 2015. The latest spat with Israel is the further result of its aggressive and counter-productive "politics of history", which has unleashed old stereotypes on both sides.

Nie - kadencja nie zakończyła się "po prostu". Padła decyzja o nieprzedłużeniu umowy szanowanego dyrektora muzeum światowej sławy, najprawdopodobniej z powodów polityczynych (bo jest niezależny od rządowej linii polityki historycznej). Będziemy obserwować rozwój wydarzeń.
