Poland�s Foreign Ministry says Russia has formally complained about a provocative graphic that ran on Polish state television during a discussion of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

The graphic used Thursday included the words �Achtung Russia!� while the Nazi �SS� letters were used in the spelling of �Russia,� and Putin was pictured as part of the Nazi death�s head symbol.

Poland�s Foreign Ministry said the Polish ambassador in Moscow was summoned Friday for a meeting at the Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow. Polish diplomats also were to hear Russia�s position at a meeting in Warsaw.

The Soviet Union signed a nonaggression pact with Nazi Germany in 1939, but from 1941-45 the two sides were at war, with the Soviets playing a key role in liberating Europe from the Nazis.
