Poland has expressed outrage and protested against a social media post by Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, which incorrectly labeled the Nazi Auschwitz death camp as Polish. The mistake in the post has sparked significant controversy, leading to a correction by the European Commission. The Auschwitz camp, established by Nazi Germany in occupied Poland during World War II, is a site of immense historical significance and the misrepresentation of its origins is a sensitive issue for Poland, which has long objected to any implication that it shared responsibility for the Holocaust.
