Germany's new foreign minister voiced solidarity Friday with Poland while also calling for humanitarian treatment of migrants and refugees stuck near the country's border with Belarus as temperatures plummet.

“That’s why we stand here in full responsibility and solidarity by the side of Poland and the Baltic states,” she said. Poland's government and EU officials have accused Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko of retaliating against the EU by directing migrants to the 27-nation bloc's eastern borders.
The ongoing dispute was deeply exacerbated after the Polish constitutional tribunal, under the political influence of the governing Law and Justice party, ruled this fall that Polish law has primacy over EU law in key areas. Citing opinion polls that show strong support in Poland for EU membership, Baerbock said it would be wrong for Germans to consider themselves as the “better Europeans.”
She expressed gratitude for the ties between Germany and Poland in light of “the uncountable Polish victims due to German actions" during World War II. Germany's Nazis occupied Poland during the war and carried out mass atrocities against the population. In Polish and addressed to German Ambassador Arndt Freytag von Loringhoven, one says: “Will the German authorities, who are so interested in the rule of law of other countries, finally address German outrageous lawlessness and pay Polish reparations for German crimes of World War II?”“An area in which we continue to expect good concrete cooperation from the German government is the issue of Germany’s responsibility for causing World War II and the contemporary aspects of that event.
