whatever happens in poland affects the union and this is something i am convinced but not that poland will lead to do you know we're it's a disruption this is something i don't think there is something that is to do with kids seeing ski give the time to go back to his country things might change and all of this is sort. of the present might change that you know one parallel i would draw red the soviet union first human to parallels i think one is this intention by the soviet union to centrally mandate policies rather than lead the regions to develop at their own pace and the second one would be the very linear view of history in progress that you only go from certain point to the next point without allowing a country society to make its own mistakes isn't it helpful ultimately for the democratic process for poland for hungry for russia for ukraine for anyone else to make its own mistakes and to strengthen that democratic. there is a limit there is a little a limit to the because. something that is really important for us is not to be only a common market but as we say to be a communit

poland is not appear because poland is the big problem particularly for the british.remember, britain went to war over poland. we forget that. if hitler wanted one word a time and he did not want world war ii prick the british declared war in germany and in a sense technically started world war ii over poland, so for churchill poland is a tremendous problem. there's the whole issue of the notion that they went to war to defend the nation. it's a political problem for him because it would be in pub-- it would be unpopular if he tries to get away poland, so it's a complicated issue. for churchill in particular. we can talk more on the discussion about the american perceptional poland, but in the book i make a point as for the americans, the american attitude about poland early on in the war was purposeful noninvolvement. they did not want to get involved. this was a problem with the british in the polls themselves to settle with the russians. now, given the nature of the war and reality of soviet power as i have just said there was a limit to how far both churchill and

their part in this history of the holocaust and i think poland can do the same. do you think that the two sides will be able to resolve this issue and if so how. i think that once the. specialists in the story and sue know the history well the history of the also for example i'll give you one other example in right off the deliberation of poland in the city of you develop new jews came back from the concentration camp there was a program and the polish people killed the jews of came back from the cuts and this after germany disappeared this after the victory against germany so there is a history there and i would like also to say that the germans decided to put the death camps in poland and not in france and not in and not in holland the not even in germany for maybe a good reason don't you think it's understandable why polish legislators one paper one people too and people want to pass this will. i think that the people in poland getting very upset by when people say polish death camps i understand them i agree with them these were not polish death camps these a

go to poland where legislation is dumping its relationship with israel.t a minieven call diplomatic crisis because benjamin netanyahu has agreed to meet with a polish counterpart in an effort to defuse tensions over this crisis. government is trying to push through a bill that makes it illegal to contribute complicity in the holocaust to the polish nation. poland says all schlitz -- auschwitz is not a polish name and the entries name is a german phrase meaning it is german not polish. they fear it may whitewash some of the darker parts of poland's wartime past. the two leaders are going to be meeting to defuse tensions. >> what arare some of the reactions? >> there was a piece on the front page of the jerusalem post that sides with poland. it reminds readers of poland's valiant efforts to resist nazi is him and notes that 1.9 million non-jewish poles died during the war. warsaw was also raised to the ground. beit says poland is right to angry when it is made to appear that they were responsible. , we see --s press polish press, we see the same sentiment.

hungary and prime minister viktor orban has an ally in poland. his counterpart in warsaw. is ready to walk the same path does on mass migration quotas poland says it's already taken more refugees than any other each country fleeing the war in ukraine but he said press was demanded to take in thousands of mostly muslim migrants was highly unpopular and undermined their suffering today continental to them it was for in terms of migration and quotas that were to be imposed on e.u. member countries we strongly reject such an approach as it infringes on sovereign decisions. this is a pretty strong core skills nam you could take. the e.u.'s migration policy is not working in fact it has failed spectacularly we've talked about this it's obvious that the people in europe do not want immigration. the two leaders said they trust in the european union and its values and more of yet he added they want to jointly develop the e.u. . both pointed to the election of anti mass migration conservative sebastian courts in austria as proof their values are gaining strength. all three on one ha

but these -- >> he wrote about how bad it was in poland. he -- he had written quite a bit about the severe shortage. >> yeah. >> when we think about these polish refugees in world war ii but not in world war i. isn't this what we're seeing here? >> yeah. the polish and the germans -- i mean the russians and the german his to blame each. the germans say it's the russians fault so they were burning and destroying crops and houses as they retreated. the russians probably will say no, that germans were taking everything like locusts as they headed east. and there's probably truth on both sides. >> the truth is probably -- >> but either way, these are people that are going to pay the bill. >> these were -- they had to pack up everything they thought they were going to have in the future to survive with their families. wait until you see some of the scenes. there's a great shot coming up. these wagons, it's amazing they held together. >> there's one here that the wheel is about 45 degrees. >> yeah. i think this is the one. let's see. yeah. there

most of poland, stalin gets the other side of poland, poland's going to disappear. there's going to be spheres of influence beyond poland. the deal is done, the map is arranged, they agree on where the line goes down in poland. hitler is overjoyed. and nazis invaded poland, september 1, 1939. a week after ribbentrop has been in moscow. and stalin is supposed to invade poland from the other side he doesn't do anything. he just watches as poland has an army, and air force. maybe they're going to bomb the germans out. it turns out that the polls fight heroically but they don't bond the germans down. the nazis brick blitzkrieg, is not call back yet, slices through. and lo and behold already september 16, 17, 18, the german forces are on stalin's side of the line. >> so think about this. there's a map, they agree. and stalin got what with him? this piece of paper. that ribbentrop had signed on behalf of hitler. and then german army is moving eastward. stalin's direction. and now they're on the other side of the line that was agreed. so he sends a minion in berlin to meet

poland as an army poland has an air force maybe they're going to bog the germans down. well it turns out that polls tight if heroically but don't fog german down and type operation is not called out yet slices through -- poland and low and behold already sepght 16, 17 18 -- the german forces are on stalin's side was line. of the line. so think about this. there's a map, they agree, and stalin has got what with hitler he's got this piece of paper. that ribbon has signed on behalf of hitt e her. and then the german army is moving eastward and stalin's direction. and now they're on the other side of the line that was agreed. so -- in berlin to meet with the head of german intelligence and what's going on here. the mignon get sent into the office with a giant map on the table and the map shows that german forces where they are with a little stick pen you know on the military map. and if map shows that they're on stalin side of the line. this is reported that they're mapping you know in jer man headquarters. stalin crawls in german military stationed in moscow and he says to

people in ukraine they saw how much better life was in poland when poland joined the e.u. and joined the alliance people in ukraine wanted to make while that same choice ukraine's the only country in the world where people have died with the e.u. flag and there he answer is russia or is in the ukraine the answer is russia is occupying crimea that's the answer from the russian side rather was in east germany also and they're gone so you compare this sure show up actually i'm actually optimistic if we can all stick together. you know time is not in russia's favor you said that russia could conquer the baltic states vote quicker then we could get there to defend them quote and if this is true it means that these states are not sufficiently protected by the united states or the nato so i think that was about two and a half years ago when i said that but. i would not say the same thing today in the main reason i would say that is the alliance rapid deployment of enhanced foreign presence by liberals in less than a year from the warsaw summit in july last year less than a year g

israel and poland have agreed to hold talks over a controversial new law being proposed that would make it illegal to suggest polish people or any responsibility for nazi crimes during the holocaust. because last night i express my strong opposition to the law passed in the polish parliament last friday and i'm sure that all ministers would agree regarding the holocaust that befell our people on polish soil the law is due to go through two more stages before it's finally adopted expressed our clear position that it must be changed we will not accept any attempt whatsoever to rewrite history. israel's foreign minister has already summoned a polish envoy to express the country's anger at the bill the proposed law would forbid linking the polish nation to nazi crimes moreover anyone using phrases such as polish death camps could face up to three years in jail more than three million jews lived in poland prior to the second world war most of them were killed during the conflict the concentration camp auschwitz birkenau which was built in poland during the nazi occupation has become one of t

the british had not been eager to come to the defense of poland in december 1939. still less than the french. after all, it was only 21 years since we defeated germany, what wass in 1939 called the great war. with casualties that today sore beyond our imaginemation, over 750,000 british war dead. 60,000 british casualties on the first day of the first battle of the sun in 1915. over one million, 350,000 french war dead. over two million french gravely-wounded or mutilated. a war that cost a worldwide total of over 41 million lives. and all of them apparently dead for nothing, zero, except the need to repeat the whole bloody thing a generation later, this time with more powerful weapons, and facing unapologetically fierce ideology that glorified war in germany. more sobering still, it had taken combined effort of france, the united kingdom, russia, the united states, belgium, italy and u japan to defeat germany lt time around in 1914, 1918. even then, by only very thinnest of margins. nobody in france or the united kingdom could imagine the germans would be defeated

remember britain went to war over poland. forget that.hitler wanted one more added time british declared war on germany that started world war ii so that is a tremendous problem with the notion that they went to war it is a political problem if he tries to give away poland. we can talk more with the american perception but in the book that make the point they want to get involved with the soviet power there were limits to promote the free and independent poland that point was a very unlikely place. that would be impossible to get into the media shot and we can talk about this with the discussion. and then to embark on the rest of our journey focusing on those three issues that i mentored long -- mentioned in those other issues that come up in the book. here is roosevelt's fourth inaugural address his son is behind him strong and tall vice president truman said he is an important character and consistent he comes back for this inauguration. he came from the philippines back to the united states. after the ceremony going into the private st

six months ago, early in this season of change, i stood at the gates of the gdansk shipyard in poland at the monument to the fallen workers of solidarity. it's a monument of simple majesty. three tall crosses rise up from the stones, and atop each cross, an anchor -- an ancient symbol of hope. the anchor in our world today is freedom, holding us steady in times of change, a symbol of hope to all the world. and freedom is at the very heart of the idea that is america. giving life to that idea depends on every one of us. our anchor has always been faith and family. in the last few days of this past momentous year, our family was blessed once more, celebrating the joy of life when a little boy became our 12th grandchild. when i held the little guy for the first time, the troubles at home and abroad seemed manageable and totally in perspective.
