    Very funny to literally link to Pravda for News You Can Trust.

    Given how much of the Ukrainian supply lines are getting backed up into Poland and the number of strikes that have landed around the Polish border, it’s largely an artifice of political expediency that nobody has found cause belli to date.

    Idk how that is going to change moving forward. Is NATO really committed to backing Poland up if they enter a shooting war with Russia? Or will this be Greece/Turkiye all over again? Cause without NATO, I can’t imagine Poland doing anything now then they already have.

      I don’t know about NATO in general, but the Polish government, and the people largely too, seem genuinely convinced the US will help in case of a Russian attack.

      The best it can count on is EU support, assuming any attack occurs before the next anti-EU government is in office. Afterwards… it’s not looking good.

        We’ve seen a number of Russian rockets land on Polish soil. We’ve seen flyovers. We’ve seen sabotage and other espionage.

        Poland gets a Gulf of Tonkin once a week. Shy of a T-90 showing up in Rzeszów, I’m not sure what else they’re waiting for.
