I wonder what Germans did with thier polish POWs. They took them in much bigger numbers then Soviet Union? Why you do not request the genocide accpectance in case of those POWs?
They kept them in POW camps (oflags and stalags) together with Western POWs.
That's hardly a genocide.
Sure they also murdered many Polish soldiers and civilians, but they have never denied that was a genocide.

Not every war crime is a genocide. There are other atrocities.
Genocide is an attempt to eradicate a people or a culture. The Nazis attempted to eradicate Jews in Poland. They did not attempt to eradicate Poles. (Though, if they’d succeeded in eradicating European Jews, they would probably have turned on the Slavs next).
