History / WW2 - The other side. What USSR, also that the Polish government has made not to admit WW2 [45]

I am not an expert as other people on this forum but I'll try to answer the question.

During the Russian Civil War the White Army had a different stand to Poland than the Red Army. The White Army would not recognize Poland as an independent state but dependent on Russia. The Red Army however recognized Poland as independent as well as recognizing many other things that they wern't going to keep. The Red Army was seen as the lesser evil so Poland did not cooperate with the White Army together against the Red Army.

With the alliance with Germany I believe that has been talked about in the forum if Poland had joined Germany. I mean alliance with the Soviets and Stalin was kinda sealing your fate if thats how it can be explained. The only real choice was an alliance with France and Britain and if Poland were not betrayed Germany would have been quickly defeated and Russia would not have an pre-occupied Polish Army or a hopefull nation believing Russia actually came to help. Some help I may add.
