Poland condemns presidential adviser’s participation in AfD event in Berlin
Poland’s Foreign Minister has strongly criticized the planned participation of a close adviser to President Karol Nawrocki at a conference organized by Germany’s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in Berlin.
According to the AfD’s official website, Andrzej Nowak, a conservative historian and close ally of the nationalist president, was invited to attend the event scheduled for October 8. The conference will focus on the German government–sponsored project for a German-Polish House, aimed at fostering dialogue and reconciliation between the two nations with a complex shared past.
“It shows a lack of judgment to legitimize German revisionists out of resentment toward the European Union,” declared Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski, a member of Donald Tusk’s pro-European government. “I say this clearly: fear a nationalist Germany more than a pro-European one,” he added on X (formerly Twitter).
Contacted by the Polish daily Gazeta Wyborcza, Nowak defended his decision, saying he would attend the conference “as a historian” and had received the invitation before Poland’s June 1 presidential election. “One should not assume that everyone in the AfD is a neo-Nazi,” he said. “There are politicians with different opinions. It’s worth engaging in dialogue with them.”
