JTA A Polish right-wing politician has been appointed to a board of the Auschwitz state museum, leading to a Jewish member’s resignation on Wednesday amid claims of politicization.
Stanislaw Krajewski said he would be leaving the International Auschwitz Council over the nomination of the Law and Justice party’s Beata Szydlo, Onet reported.
Culture Minister Piotr Gliński, a member of the same right-wing party, on Tuesday announced the nomination of Szydło, who had served as prime minister for nearly two years until 2017.

ROME, Aug. 6 (JTA) Poland will allow a controversial shopping center to be built across the street from the site of the Auschwitz death camp.
The president of the company developing the project in the southern Polish city of Oswiecim was quoted as saying the center will be geared to serve hundreds of thousands of people who visit the museum and memorial at Auschwitz each year.
“We have bowed to government requests and reoriented the project to serve visitors to the museum,” Janusz Marszalek, president of the Maja company, told Reuters in Warsaw.
