(ANSA) - WROCLAW, 01 SET - Over a hundred people gathered in Wroclaw's central Market Square to demand war reparations from Germany and protest against alleged acts of 'Germanization' of the city, including proposals or changes to place names that would bring back German names or names used before World War II. The initiative, organized on the 86th anniversary of the Nazi invasion of Poland, saw the participation of conservative associations and parties, including Ruch Narodowy and Obòz Wielkiej Polski, as well as representatives of the weekly newspaper Gazeta Polska. During the event, signatures were collected for a petition to be forwarded to German Chancellor Friedrich Merz through the consulate in Wroclaw. "In six years of occupation of Polish territory," recalled Wroclaw city councilor Slawomir Smigielski (Pis) as he read the text of the petition, "the citizens of the Third Reich, of whom the inhabitants of the Federal Republic of Germany are the legal heirs, exterminated more than five million of our compatriots in Poland, in concentration camps and in summary executions. Furthermore, with a predetermined executive plan, they plundered Poland's national heritage, both material, with, for example, 40,000 railway wagons of private property stolen in Germany in September 1939, and food, such as the millions of tons of coal, iron, wheat, and potatoes taken away, and economic, with 40,000 Polish businesses stolen".
