I think Poland expected more support for such a decision but they basically just cut their own flesh with that. Ironically the relationship between Russia and Poland is worse than between Germany and Russia. Post-war politics seem to have a larger impact.
- cheaprentalyeti 5y agoHow can it be Ironic? It exactly matches the relationships in the first couple years of the second world war: Germany and Russia had the Molotov-Ribbentroff Pact, and the parts of Germany and the Soviet Union that used to be a country called Poland Just Had To Put Up With It.
- p_l 5y agoGermany (or rather "Prussia", given that unified Germany is relatively new thing) and Russia had been much more friendlier with each other than their relationship with Poland, for considerable stretches of history. To the point that at times it's talked as "traditional german-russian friendship". On completely unrelated note is that our (Polish) current government is beyond stupid, voided long-term contracts during a period of cheaper gas prices, and is now forced to buy at spot prices for more than it saved on the long-term contract (also lots of political capital being involved between govt and opposition).
