News / What should Poland do with the problem of Belarus? [1800]

Yeah, but how long can he resist?

As long as he keeps Putin in strong conviction that he is the only politician in Belarus able to persuade Belarussians to accept full integration with Russia. The plans for such an integration after which Belarus is formally incorporated into Russia have been revealed a few days ago.

I don't think Putin is a very big fan of the man.

Of course, coz Luka refuses to obey in certain issues, mainly sending the Belarus army to war. But right now Putin has no better replacement for Lukashenka so he will remain.

there's always one person, usually retired, probably with an undiagnosed mental illness or personality disorder who witters on crabbily just for the sake of it,

It is uncultural to laugh at people`s deficiencies but I couldn`t help it after imagining the scene. Sorry.

That is a new level of inanity.

What Poles think of as geraniums are not the same variety we have here in the UK.

I see the matter is far more complex and even complicated than I thought before. I`d better give up now to avoid a headache.

Irishman talks about geraniums he means pelargonia :)

That`s Orwellian double thinking. :):):)

I suggest you go back and reread your Off-Topic posts.

You see? You refuse to acknowledge your fault and blame everybody else.
I am not going to waste my time. If you can`t understand the logic behind certain actions and later events in the forum, it is your problem, not mine. Enough said: your off topic personal attacks were punished. That should teach you a lesson for the future. Behave yourself and you will be safe.

Then Pawian posted totally Off-Topic in his reply in post # 290

No, mine wasn`t off topic. Quite the contrary. It was a purely on topic humorous admonishment for you to stop polluting the thread about the Polish army with silly personal attacks such as

He insists on controlling the narratives here with his Woke agenda.

Comes from being a teacher of fourth graders where he is an authority on everything.


That is what you were suspended for - off topic remarks on posters instead of on the the thread`s content. Ha!

WHY I bltch about the bias Moderating here.

As a psychopath, you don`t see your own faults but accuse everybody else instead. Simple.

The geraniums the OP is referring to are actually the pelargonia

Hmmm. Why do we assume that his geraniums are pelargonias and not geraniums??? In my family house parents never kept pelargonias but geraniums for their pleasant scent. .

News / What should Poland do with the problem of Belarus? [1800]

I learned that China has in fact bought the largest port in Greece (Piraeus).

Yes, possible, but buying a port still doesn`t turn a country into China`s puppet. :):):) You need to buy the government, other officials and civil servants, parliament members (every 4 years new ones), major businesses etc etc. It would be too costly in a NATO country. Belarus is much cheaper.

despite protests from Scholz's party.

You see? How much would China have to spend to pacify those obnoxious opponents???

that Putin allows this idiot to think he duped him,

Right now it is Lukashenka playing with Putin when he refuses to send Belarussian army into Ukraine.

Why not focus on some kind of Spain or Greece to turn into a puppet?

Because making a NATO member a Chinese puppet would be too costly????? :):):)

Belarus is in the far east corner of Europe, completely landlocked,

Yes, but still major land transport routes from China to Europe go through Belarus. :):):)

Amasing! :):)

the average annual economic growth of Great Britain amounted to 0.5 percent, while Poland's was 3.6 percent, while the value of GDP per capita in 2021 stood at USD 44,979 in the U.K. and USD 34,915 in Poland respectively. According to the Labour Party, if the growth rate in both countries continues, by 2030 the U.K. will be overtaken by Poland,

News / Polish PM Tusk- dictator or not? What Poles think? [455]

Donald Tusk combats obsessive lies of the rightist PiS rulers and critisizes their suspicious deals on Russian oil.

"We have received information that Orlen has been buying oil from Russia for the last year. It is pure hypocrisy coz the PiS government said it was in favor of sanctions. Morawiecki, Kaczyński and Duda admonished other countries, Tusk said during the meeting.

"Today`s news is crushing. During this year, during the war, Orlen paid Putin, according to experts, even more than PLN 40 billion for oil that was not supposed to come from Russia, he added.

"I have also received shocking news. Orlen continues to buy oil from Russia for Czech plants. Polish company is still funding this war in a way. Someone maliciously, but quite accurately, pointed out that Obajtek (Orlen`s head manager) may be untouchable, just like every oligarch of Putin, because in fact, considering the scale of what Obajtek does, today he is one of Putin's largest oligarchs, said the PO leader.

Why doesn't Poland build a manufacturing plant to produce advanced tanks ?

Because it is cheaper to buy good tanks abroad. Countries don`t need to produce everything coz they can purchase what they need. Autarky is a characteristic of totalitarian regimes like North Korea. And soon Russia.

Food / Kefir drink in Poland [79]

It is extremely good for you.

Kefir is an easily digestible drink that helps cleanse the body due to its ability to accelerate intestinal peristalsis . The friendly lactic bacteria contained in kefir support the colonization of the intestines by these bacteria, displacing the pathogenic flora . About 30 strains of these microorganisms were recorded in it, including strains of bacteria such as Lactobacillus brevis, Casei, Plantarum, Streptococcus cremoris and lactis, as well as yeasts of the genus Accharomyces .

The nutritional composition of this drink is also important - complete protein, vitamins and minerals, including, above all, easily assimilable calcium . Kefir, due to its high nutritional value and probiotic content , supports the immune system, which is why its regular consumption is recommended for viral diseases such as herpes, shingles, AIDS or diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome .

The B vitamins contained in it have a positive effect on the functioning of the nervous system, supporting the treatment of sleep disorder, depression or relieving the symptoms of hyperactivity disorder in children . The beneficial effect of this drink on reducing the level of bad cholesterol, lowering blood pressure, improving the work of the liver, kidneys and thyroid gland has also been noted .

To sign agreements where China will transfer large quantities of weapons to Belarus.

Of course not. That would be soon discovered and punished by the West with crushing sanctions. Everybody knows Belarus regime closely cooperates with Russia.
China can`t afford it.

Ideas:

You forgot the main reason. The Chinese want to make Putin realise Lukashenka mustn`t be removed coz he is an important asset to China.

News / PiS and Russian political/economic interests [70]

A good example of rightist PiS obsessive lying:

On Saturday, February 25, PKN Orlen, a major oil company, announced that it was not receiving crude oil supplies from Russia. It was added that supplies via the Druzhba pipeline to Poland have been suspended by the Russian side. On Monday, February 27, the Russian agency RIA Novosti, quoted by Onet, reported that Transneft had suspended oil deliveries to our country because Poland had not paid for the delivery.

Why is it so surprising?

After the information that it was the Russian side, not Poland, that "turned off the tap" with Russian oil, comments appeared on the profiles of opposition politicians in social media which showed the hypocrisy of the current PiS authorities regarding oil imports from Russia. "There is no greater liar and hypocrite than Morawiecki. A year ago, he instructed the West, including Brussels, to stop importing oil, and he himself has been doing it with Orlen until today. A man absolutely without shame. #bloodoil #bloodyoil" - wrote the MEP on Twitter Koalicja Obywatelska Andrzej Halicki.

KO MP Jan Grabiec echoed him : "In November 2022, Orlen ordered 3 million tons of oil from Russia for 2023. Oil flowed in January and February and was supposed to flow further, but the Russians turned off the tap. This is what Morawiecki`s and PiS` truthfulness looks like." Both posts by PO politicians were accompanied by the same photo of Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki standing in front of a banner in English: "#Bloodoil funds Russia's genocide in Ukraine".


Liars, liars!!

News / What should Poland do with the problem of Belarus? [1800]

A few months ago I reported Belarusian partisans blow up railways to sabotage military transports. But they have scored a much bigger target - Russian AWACS plane.

Partisans from the "Pieramoha" (Victory) plan confirmed a successful special operation to blow up a rare Russian plane at the airfield in Machulishchy near Minsk. This is the most successful diversion since the beginning of 2022.

Well done.

History / What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [945]

he Ukrainian people decided to trade a very real customs union and promises of billions of dollars from Russia

For a good reason. As Ukrainians can see now, any deals with Russians end with bombardment and subjugation.
Do you really think Ukrainians are that crazy???

we went back to what worked for us in the past. Brute force.

Exactly. Your true Russian nature always prevails and that Western camouflage you mentioned is just a spoof.
Thank you for being so sincere with us.

Free expression is something that r*SSia simply can't cope with.

It has been so for centuries. There was a peculiar event in 17th century when Moscovite diplomats demanded some anti-tsar publications be burned in Poland. The Polish king complied.

Currently, Poland and Russia belong to two different worlds, with a completely different set of values.

News / THE ARMY OF POLAND - THE REALITY [493]

infantry vehicles

The army is planning to order 1000 IFVs called Badger

Borsuk as an infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) was developed by a consortium led by Huta Staliwa Wola, part of the Polish Armaments Group. The project has been implemented and developed since 2014. The Polish construction is to replace the BWP-1 vehicles from the times of the USSR.

Now the project is gaining momentum, because it turns out that Borsuk will multiply in the Polish army to 1000 pieces. Next week, the Minister of National Defense is to sign a new contract with HSW for a huge supply of these IFVs.

The constructors are probably most proud of the use of the Polish-made ZSSW-30 unmanned turret. It was developed by specialists from Huta Stalowa Wola and WB Electronics from Ożarów Mazowiecki. In their opinion, it is one of the most modern solutions of this type in the world. Two independent sights allow you to work in the hunter-killer and killer-killer systems. With one instrument the gunner destroys the target, with the other the commander observes the area around the vehicle. If it notices a new target, it uses the hunter-killer mode to indicate it to the aimer and the turret automatically sets itself in its direction. In turn, the killer-killer mode is activated in situations where the commander does not have time to provide information about the target. Then he quickly takes command and shoots . The vehicle, using on-board weapon systems, has the ability to fight infantry, armored vehicles, air targets and neutralize other threats.

A few decent Russians dared to protest

A businessman who wrote anti-war graffiti on the facade of his store was arrested in St.Petersburg. Dmitry Skurikhin was sent to the detention center for two months.

The facade: Peace to Ukraine. Freedom to Russia.
Sb wrote on the front door - thanks, you are a hero.
The placard: Sorry, Ukraine.
