  Turkey and Israel alienated themselves. There was way too much will towards Turkey, and they kept blowing it every single time. And Israel.. well.. is Israel.

I live close to the border with Ukraine and I have no idea what you're talking about. Beyond it being a little harder to get an apartament due to the influx of Ukrainian migrants, it's business as usual. And I've not heard of any job market woes. The worst thing right now, and since a while, is farmers getting shafted by cheap grain imports from Ukraine due to lax control at the border, no tracking, and no punishments for buyers.

    Several of the farmers protesting at the Polish botder are borderline state actors on Russian behalf, with connections to government officials being proven. Make of that what you will.

    For 2023, the grain imported from Russia to Poland amounts to 1.2% of the grain imported from Ukraine. Should be 0%, but it's definitively not "much larger". How are you comforable with just making things up like that.
