The New Atlas Examines Poland’s Position vis a vis the War in Ukraine
Wed 12:13 pm +01:00, 27 Jul 202226 Jul 2022
While Western propaganda continues insisting Ukraine will prevail against Russian military operations, the “front line” is quietly being moved to western Ukraine and even Poland.
The possibility of a Syria-style buffer zone operation being launched from Poland, Romania, (or both), into western Ukraine remains a possibility.
Either way, huge investments by the Polish government to improve “safety” for the Polish people are in reality simply a means of escalating tensions with Russia and its military that appears more than capable of out-matching the Western weapon systems Poland is investing in.
