History / What would Europe look like with Polish-Lithuanian-Ukrainian Commonwealth today [209]

What would Europe look like with Polish–Lithuanian-ukrainian Commonwealth today

The human mind craves fantasy. But fantasy itself isn't stable. Myths and legends are constantly shifting. What was believed yesterday, is laughed at today. re-examine the former Cold War battlefield!!.

Note the changes around the globe, and the changes in Washington.!!

and What do i think will be happening over the next 20 years? (my cristal boll )
i dont know!! but i know that, united countries like poland- ukraine and lithuania have a chance to stand up against foes and bullies in Europe

so Polish–Lithuanian-ukrainian Commonwealth would be a good thing, for poles:-&

History / Another WWII thread. [69]

The British government on 24 August 1939, through Lieutenant-General Sir Adrian Carton De Wiart, head of the British Military mission made strong representations to Marshal Edward Śmigły-Rydz, Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Forces, to evacuate the most modern elements of the fleet from the Baltic. Although Śmigły-Rydz resisted the idea at first, he finally agreed.

why? Śmigły-Rydz's reason for doing so was the idea of a Romanian Bridgehead. It was hoped the Polish forces could hold out in the southeast of the country, near the common border with Romania, until relieved by a Franco-British offensive. Munitions and arms could be delivered from the west via Romanian ports and railways. The Polish Navy would then be able to escort the ships delivering the supplies to Romanian ports.

The Polish Navy, which had escaped intact, consisted of 60 vessels, including 2 cruisers, 9 destroyers and 5 submarines ( one of which was the famous "Orzel") which were involved in 665 actions at sea. The first German ship sunk in the war was sunk by Polish ships. The Navy also took part in the D-Day landings.

In reality Poland was only just beginning to modernise her armed forces and had been forced (by Britain and France) to delay mobilisation (which they claimed might be interpreted as aggressive behaviour)

its more clearer now? or it not?

News / The most spectacular errors in Polish politics. [264]

but they were hardly going to write "In exchange for selling out its Ukrainian allies Poland shall receive the sum of 30 million gold roubles," were they!

i dont know what they were going to write, but i do know what they wrote!
so i disagree with you(i do have constitutional right), right:-(

Polish backstab

error in politics!! yes
Treaty of Versailles -- backstab,
Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye- poland backstab of its masters austrians
Treaty of Riga , backstab ukrainians
Treaty of russia- backstab
Treaty of germany, backstab
history is full of backstabing in australia, canada and usa
and on the end germany backstab russia
but do not forget Russia backstab germany, because they have enter the war later then they suppose to.
Stalin tricked Hitler into starting the war. This was easily done because Hitler was impetuous. Stalin, on the other end, had the virtue of patience and was more deceptive

The Soviet leader set the war in motion by signing a secret pact with Hitler. The agreement involved a joint invasion and partitioning of Poland. In the course of this invasion Stalin cheated Hitler by delaying the Soviet invasion of Poland for 17 days. Hitler was shocked at the betrayal.

Poland was not to be trusted as an ally.

poland did well in this field:-)

Strategy is not always about fighting. It is about long-range consequences. If you unloose X, then you unleash Y. Therefore, strategy is psychological and sociological

Consider the strategic outcome of the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington, ow better dont. To question a myth, one has to have a questioning mind. Facts speak truth only to the few

ps
by the way? are you a little backstabber?

News / The most spectacular errors in Polish politics. [264]

hej harry

could you post a link to article xiii of the treaty of riga
re:Poland sells out Ukraine

Poland also was to receive monetary compensation (30 million rubles) for its economic input into the Russian Empire during the times of partitions of Poland. Russia was also to surrender works of art and other Polish national treasure acquired from Polish territories after 1772 (like the Zaluski Library). Both sides renounced claims to war compensation.

By 1921, Pilsudski was no longer the head of state, and only participated as an observer during the Riga negotiations, which he called an act of cowardice.

and one more ok
Ukrainian People's Republic led by Symon Petliura had been allied with Poland by Treaty of Warsaw, but in Riga, Poland went back on this treaty. Pilsudski felt the agreement was a shameless and short-sighted political calculation. Allegedly, having walked out of the room, he told the Ukrainians waiting there for the results of the Riga Conference: "Gentlemen, I deeply apologize to you". The new treaty violated Poland's military alliance with the UPR, which had explicitly prohibited a separate peace. It also worsened relations between Poland and its Ukrainian minority, who felt Ukraine had been betrayed by its Polish ally, a feeling that would be exploited by Ukrainian nationalists and result in the growing tensions and eventual violence in the 1930s and 1940s. By the end of 1921, the majority of Poland-allied Ukrainian, Belarusian and White Russian forces had either crossed the Polish border and laid down their arms or had been annihilated by Soviet forces.

and that was he most spectacular errors in Polish politics , right?
