Poland (EDM114)

Poland

EDM number 114 in 2001-02, proposed by David Winnick on 11/07/2001.

That this House expresses its disappointment that Cardinal Jozef Glemp did not attend the ceremony at which the President of Poland, Aleksander Kwasniewski, apologised for the killing by Poles of the entire Jewish population, numbering some 1600, of Jedwabne in July 1941; also expresses its contempt for the local priest, Orlowski, who dismissed the apology as 'holocaust business'; and strongly hopes that the stand taken by the Polish President will help Poland finally to rid itself of its anti-semitic obsessions and prejudices which made it that much easier for the Nazis to carry out their own atrocities involving the murder of millions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 20 MPs.
