After WW1, there was a lot of confused fighting in Eastern Europe that most Americans know little about - our public-school books typically skip from the end of WW1 to the start of WW2 with little explanation about why Russia and Germany would want to ally against Poland.

Comrade, you know not of what you speak. Most Sovereign Ukraine is much like Most Sovereign Poland. They see theemselves as true independent mven and vwomen.

But always vwen going gets much tough, then come running back to Momma Bear like old lost woman in her babushka.

Every 30-40 years, we rinse and repeat.

People really should learn history. Thanks for posting!

I need to watch this particularly video, but currently reading a novel that centers on Poland and its political woes over the years. Not dissimilar to the Jack Ryan Season 3.

Poland suffers from a topographic deficiency that makes it hard to defend but makes it a good neutral zone. As such, it has served in that capacity for much of history.
