title: "Auschwitz holds observances on the 80th anniversary of the death camp's liberation"
Considering the Soviet (government's) treatment of Poland, both before and after 1945 - is "liberation" a reasonable term here?
Jewish survivors of these death camps will respond affirmatively

Clickbait title. "liberators" does not appear in the article.

"Later in the day, world leaders and royalty will join with elderly camp survivors, the youngest of whom are in their 80s. Politicians, however, have not been asked to speak this year. Due to the advanced age of the survivors, about 50 of whom are expected, organizers are choosing to make them the center of the observances."
