Boguslaw Rogalski (IND/DEM). - (PL) Mr President, I
should like to alert
the House to violations of human rights by German officials and
courts. The
problem relates to Poles who were previously married to German
spouses but
are now divorced, and who are treated as no better than
paedophiles. The
courts invariably award custody of any children to the German
parent, and
take it for granted that the German language and culture are
superior to
their Polish equivalents.
'Early Germanisation' and 'children of German descent' were
phrases used in
Nuremberg by criminals charged with the Germanisation of Polish
children.
Similar phrases are used today by officials working for the
Jugendamt, the
German Child and Youth Welfare Office, to justify German-imposed
bans on
meetings between Poles and their children. Even if such meetings
do take
place, speaking Polish is strictly prohibited, and it is
instilled in the
children that everything associated with the Polish language is
inferior.
The Jugendamt claims that the Polish language has a negative
influence on
the children's education, but such assumptions are racist. Poland
has
already experienced a German education system claiming to be
superior to all
others at earlier stages of its history.
Is this what passes for respect of human rights in Germany? Such
practices
violate one of the European Union's basic principles, namely the
promotion
of the linguistic and cultural diversity of its citizens.
