What should Russia and Poland do to become if not friends, then at least not enemies? [939]
Hi, I think instead of worrying about the either/or of friendship / enemy, the matter is really one of survival. That is, the continued survival of Poland as a country. Specifically, Polands' continued existence as a civilization and not it's disappearance from the Earth's face replaced by molten ash created by Russia's missiles. Poland is a (very close) target as it hosts NATO's ABM systems.
How so. NATO is pushing hard for a first strike Nuclear War with Russia. They believe they can "win" taking this initiative, bring Russia to it's knees and make it a vassal state like Poland is. There are no winners in a Nuclear War. I don't think they care.
So, first priority is to extract Poland from NATO immediately. NATO's sole existence in the modern era is to provide cover for western aggression and should have been dissolved decades ago. Polands' political class has been paid off to remain as a member but this situation does not have to continue. This means all foreign ABM systems and the entire U.S. military presence out of Poland, immediately. The local Americans need to know that this is for their own good too. Normalize relations with Russia and state Poland has no interest in any other than the self-defense of it's own borders conducted by it's own military. Poland can take the lead on NATO expulsion and other countries in similar current vassalage to the West would certainly follow.
Secondly, and similarly, extricate Poland from the EU. It is engineered poison to the living sovereignty of nations.
No easy tasks of course, yet I was delighted to see Poland stand up for itself (in 2015) and declare it's heritage and intent to the World in one of the largest demonstrations seen in Europe. A shining example to other countries over-run with incoming invaders (yes, invaders. See Coudehove-Kalergi, Hooton Plan etc). Angela Merkel herself recently won the Kalergi prize.
Preserving Poland is worth it. Once it's gone it will never be habitable again. A little dreary? I didn't create the situation and I wish it weren't the case.
