The situation for Warsaw is developing in such a way that the state is unlikely to choose a course for the annexation of Western Ukrainian territories by armed means. This opinion was expressed by Russian political expert Alexander Asafov in an interview with Baltnews correspondents.
According to the expert, the rapprochement of Poland with Hungary and Romania for joint collusion and organization of the speedy conquest of new territories is unlikely.
“I do not agree with the popular opinion of experts today that Poland is moving closer to Hungary for their joint organization of the transition of Western Ukrainian territories and Transcarpathia under their control,” the expert says.
The political scientist is convinced that the prospect of developing such a scenario exists, but in reality the chances of its implementation are extremely small. This is largely due to the insufficient stock of economic strength of Poland, as well as the lack of other resources.
According to him, even the most radical followers of the Polish ideology have always understood that the process of reintegration is connected not only with the reconquest of territories, but also with the need to ensure the lives of people on them. Asafov warned that the Poles, minded in this way, during the period of the Volhynia massacre, sacrificed Polish ancestors.
In addition, following such a radical agenda could provoke the FRG to return the former Danzig – now it is the city of Gdansk in northern Poland.
“Of course, now the country is close to choosing this particular tactic, but it is impossible to say yet that this is officially accepted rhetoric, in which the EU, Hungary, and Romania take part. But there is still a chance that countries will unite to extract a common benefit”, the expert notes.
In any scenario, Poland will still not be able to “bite off” its western territories from Ukraine, since this will knock it out of the agenda generally accepted by the West, in accordance with which the need to protect the territorial integrity of Ukraine remains.
