German FM: Germany has moral not monetary war debt to Poland
Germany feels moral responsibility for the huge damage done to occupied Poland during World War II but also no duty to make financial reparations, the country's foreign minister says in Warsaw.
Foreign Minister Heiko Maas is on a two-day trip to Poland for diplomatic talks and to attend 75th anniversary observances for the ill-fated Warsaw Rising revolt, when Polish resistance fought the occupying Nazi German troops.
After meeting with his German counterpart, Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz says Poles have a sense of not having been properly compensated for wartime wrongs.
Poland's right-wing government has said it is assessing losses and plans to seek reparations from Germany .
