It doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere: the reason this article has emerged right now probably has to do with the 100 years since the end of World War I coming in a few days - November 11th according to Wikipedia (interpretation varies), also Independence Day for many countries.
- chrisseaton 8y agoAnyone who lives in the West who did not already that Sunday is the 100th Armistice Day must be living under a rock.
- CamTin 8y agoIt also marks the centennial of Poland's return to the map after 123 years of partition and foreign rule.
- tomjen3 8y agoI doubt most here in Denmark know it. The war ending was horrible for the country (we were neutral war profiteers and sold to both sides at extremely inflated prices). The war probably only matters to the older generations, if at all, because for the rest of us it is overshaddowed by the second world war.
