News / Poland's geopolitical problems [10]

Poland has always had one problem - as soon as the state collapsed, both Russia and Germany rushed to take us over and make sure we never recover again.

The problem is sort of still relevant in modern times, in my opinion. Do you have the impression that former countries of the Duchy of Lithuania (Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine) are set against us with nonsense historical arguments on purpose ?

Normal countries try to resolve historical controversies in order to advance their geopolitical futures, especially if they have common interests and backgrounds. The former Lithuanian countries (I'll call them that for simplicity's sake) seem to be all to keen to keep annoying us with political nonsense.

Lithuania - they refuse to give Polish roadsigns in predominantly Polish areas. What the hell is that all about ? It's a European standard to do that, other countries do that, especially in the Carpathian Basin, where loads of Hungarians were displaced because of Hungary shrinking in size. I understand them being politically unfriendly to Russia, but Poland ? We're hardly keen on invading them, are we ? We're not particularly interested in polonising them either. Only a few weirdos believe in that.

Ukraine - the OUN UPA problem. I understand the Ukrainians' need to have national heroes. UPA was their great chance to get independence back. And Poland wasn't exactly very friendly or respectful to Ukraine before. But they killed loads of our people, and we didn't commit any atrocity even compatible to theirs against us. But when circumstances change, one has to adapt. Ukraine has remained in this useless conflict with Poland (nobody's interested in changing the present border arrangement in Europe, and nobody's interested in ethnically cleansing others out of some areas anymore), and I don't really see a real reason for it. Can't both sides just go for an agreement ?

For me it seems as if there are foreign interest in this. It's in the interest of Germany/France to keep us separated so they can treat us as their economic colonies. They don't want us cooperating and creating our own sphere of influence, as we used to have. Russia definitely doesn't want us and Ukrainians to be friends. And the Poroshenko government is very pro-Berlin. Is this all just a mere coincidence ?

Trolls, keep out, I don't want any ad personal or nonsense provocations, because you don't agree with me.
