03/26/2008: "Germany sparks Polish anger with war museum"

BERLIN - Germany on Wednesday unveiled plans for a museum to document the fate of millions of Germans forced out of eastern Europe after World War Two following a years-long row over the idea with neighboring Poland.

Ties between Germany and Poland have been difficult since the war, in which six million Poles perished, and the long battle by Germany's League of Expellees for a permanent centre on the expulsions has aggravated underlying tensions.
