Until World War II and the Holocaust, the Jews in Europe mostly lived in Eastern Europe in particular in Poland and the former USSR states. Poland was then famous for it's strong Jewish community, to the point where some towns and areas reaching a Jewish majority. For centuries, Poland was home to the largest and most significant Ashkenazi Jewish community in the world, so I wonder if that didn't impact the genetics of the Slavic Polish majority during all that time.
G25 suggests so, but it just might be confusing some common ancestral elements of both ashkenazis and poles.
