European Jewish Congress discusses restitution with Polish leaders
===============================================
08 July 2009
Polish President Lech Kaczynski has recognized the importance of the
issue of restitution of Jewish property confiscated during the Nazi
and Communist eras in the country. At a meeting in Warsaw with a
delegation from the European Jewish Congress (EJC), Kaczynski agreed
to “hold another meeting of a more practical nature on the issue in
November," EJC President Moshe Kantor said after what he described
as "friendly and constructive discussions."
"We certainly recognize the complexity of the issue of restitution,
but to date, unfortunately we have not seen measures taken by
previous Polish governments to deal with private property
restitution," Kantor declared.He expressed the hope that the current
administration "will take concrete measures that would enable the
claimant and their heirs to fulfill their rights in the most just
and efficient manner".
Kantor emphasized the need for the European Union to establish
strong moral foundations of individual rights. "This issue of
individual claims of Holocaust era assets is still an unresolved
issue in several European countries, with Poland being one of the
most significant."
The EJC delegation also met with Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw
Sikorski and the local Jewish community. Other topics discussed
include initiatives aimed at fighting racism and anti-Semitism, and
forging tolerance in Europe, EU-Israel relations and Holocaust
education.
