Gazeta WyborczaLO·DE · PL·2 days ago
Polish presidential candidate Karol Nawrocki's letter referencing 'necessary compromises' in relations between parts of the National Armed Forces (NSZ) and the Brygada Świętokrzyska has drawn scrutiny for omitting the brigade's collaboration with the German apparatus during WWII. The omission is notable given Nawrocki's nationalist political base and the ongoing historical debate in Poland. The controversy could affect his campaign's credibility among voters sensitive to wartime history.
