Poland's lower house of Parliament approves Holocaust law changes
Poland's lower house of Parliament voted on Wednesday to remove jail penalties for suggesting the nation was complicit in crimes against Jews from a Holocaust law that angered the United States and Israel.
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki asked parliament to amend the law on Wednesday morning—an unexpected announcement that came as his ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) seeks to bolster security ties with Washington and faces heightened scrutiny from the EU.
