3:04 pm
there was 2 and a half hours roughly. so what stood out for you is, i think one of the things you have to say is what we've just heard from the survive, a marion to ski the relevance of these events that we are thinking about that they were thinking about 80 years ago for today the fact that at that time, there were crimes committed against the jewish residents of the warsaw ghetto, and that they find an echo in crimes that are being committed by russia in ukraine today that was mentioned by several of the speakers in general. i think what you have to say is that all of the speakers felt that what's important is that the memory of these events of the crimes committed by nazis, crimes against humanity committed against jewish people in the warsaw ghetto, but also against, for instance, residents of poland. or residence of the soviet union that he should not be
3:05 pm
forgetting that for gotten that memory is important that this should be kept alive . and the 2nd aspect that was emphasized again and again is the importance of fighting antisemitism. of the fact that the ground was laid for some of the crimes against jewish people in the 2nd world war. but anti semitism had that is that had existed for form, for centuries and continues to exist today. thank you very much. we'll take a deeper look at the speeches in just a moment. but before that, let's get some background on the also get to uprising the single largest act of jewish resistance against the nazis during world war 2. reminders of a monumental act of jewish resistance, memorials to the warsaw ghetto are scattered around the polish capital. $450000.00 jewish children, women and men were crammed together behind the walls of the sealed off district.
3:06 pm
before world war 2, almost a 3rd of war. so as population was jewish, ever since nazi germany had invaded poland in 1939 jews. there were subjected to constant persecution by the occupiers. a year later they were confined to the warsaw ghetto, leaving without permission was punishable by death as was helping its inhabitants. hunger infectious diseases dire sanitary conditions. slave labor made for hellish conditions in the ghetto. by 942, almost 100000 people had died of starvation or disease or been murdered in summary executions that same year. the mass deportation of jews from the warsaw ghetto to treblinka extermination comp began within a period of just 2 months. nearly 300000 were murdered the following year in april 19, 432 jewish resistance groups started an uprising against the germans. despite some
3:07 pm
initial successes, the uprising was crushed by the nazis who destroyed the ghetto. though to survive, the rebellion were sent to tripling a death camp and other camps many were murdered. the uprising was one of the largest acts of resistance by jews during world war 2. and i witness wrote at the time, jewish war so had ceased to exist. the nazis had a raised one of the biggest jewish communities in europe on the w's political correspondence. one is still with me hands german president sanford stein meyer is in war. so for the memorial, and he also spoke, that's the 1st. is it not? yes, it's the 1st time that a german president or any representative of the german states speaks or spoke at such a memorial for the war. so ghetto uprising that's very special obviously because germany is the states that committed these crimes under whose
3:08 pm
authority and whose name in a row ruled by the nazis obvious figure in the 2nd world war. and what happened in the ghetto, as we've just seen, was conducted a by the nazis was planned meticulously by the nazis by nazi germany in the name of germany. so it is a significant sign of reconciliation. and of course small, i think one could say between poland, israel and germany, that the german president was able to speak at this memorial today. let's hear some of what just on my to say in poland, in israel, you know, from our history, right to freedom and independence must be fought for and defend. it will be good, you know how important it was for a democracy to show that it didn't vigilant and capable of defending itself, even though yet we germans,
3:09 pm
to have learned the lessons from our pass. it never again. that means that there must be no war aggression in europe like that waged by russia. ukraine. never yet let me, let me stand firmly by the side of the rain together with po allenwood and our other elijah stood stern present until the storm math speaking there in warsaw earlier today. rebuilding relations between germany and poland after the ward has been a long and difficult process this event today that time i was invited to to speak us by the polish president. is that turning point? you think? i wouldn't say it's a turning point. i'd say it's a further step in the development of relations between germany and poland. in recent years. we have to say after the fall of the berlin wall after the end of a communist rule in poland and other parts of eastern europe and also obviously in
3:10 pm
the soviet union. and what is today russia since then relations have been improving significantly, but they are still marked by a certain amount of tension. we were just talking. it hurts, stein my, are talking there about the situation ukraine and on the war and ukraine, germany and poland have not always seen eye to eye. and the last 12 months or so that has been quite a bit of tension about, for instance, what kind of weapons are to be delivered at what speeds to ukraine. poland, pushing for more weapons at a higher rate of delivery and to germany, holding back on that. so there are still tensions. but i think on the basic understanding of the 2 states, how they organize their relations with each other. things are moving ahead of the course funded. thank you very much. we actually turn our attention to sedan fighting in the is continuing in the
