No, it is not illegal, who told you that? There are Polish historians working on documenting everything that happened during the World War II, no one restricts them in any way.
- gambiting 4y agoIt's literally in the linked article. But if you prefer a different source: https://www.google.com/amp/s/time.com/5128341/poland-holocaust-law/%3famp=true https://www.google.com/amp/s/time.com/5128341/poland-holocau... >>no one restricts them in any way. Yes, because scientific research is explicitly excluded from that law.
- akolbe 4y agoI think they were referring to this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-44627129 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-44627129 When Poland made it a criminal offence this year to accuse it of complicity in Nazi war crimes, there was an outcry in Europe, Israel and the US. Anyone found guilty could face up to three years in jail. Five months later, the right-wing prime minister has moved to change the law to decriminalise the offence, describing it as a "correction". An amendment to the Holocaust law was quickly backed by the lower house of parliament and now moves to the Senate. The law had been intended to "defend the good name of Poland" but from now on it would be a civil, not a criminal offence, the head of prime minister's office, Michal Dworczyk, told public radio.
