So in 1945… what happened to Poland… since they legally succeeded from the USSR they were a free country again right?
In 1945, the soviets installed a friendly communist government in Poland, while granting it again the right to be an independent country, kind of proving that the objective from the start wasn’t “to conquer Poland because Russians are so evil”, but to not have enemies in their borders. There were purges of anticommunists as everywhere else in the soviet block.
Now I’ll ask you: in 1989 and forwards, with the Solidarity movement. Do you believe that’s a grassroots movement which spawned purely in Poland, with the only goal of freedom and democracy, and wasn’t in any way influenced by other countries? Hint: USA? The 1989 “revolution” was completely autonomous and legitimate and now Poland is finally a completely free state?
So actually it looks like Russia propaganda in the 1940s thanks to De Gaulle’s personal opinions on the matter
Funny how the purported opinion of polish citizens about Russia isn’t affected by propaganda, but the french polls are somehow.
You seem to be under some belief that the USSR never committed atrocities
I never claimed anything like that. I’m aware of the Katyn massacre and the purges of anticommunists in the USSR on a widespread level, just not particularly against Poland.
genocide levels of damage to Poland
Sorry, only Polish people actually believe that. There’s no international body as far as I know which makes any claim of genocide towards Polish by the USSR.
