There are now at least seven times more Polish soldiers in Ukraine than in Afghanistan and 22 times more than in Iraq. Why would Poland send such a large contingent of troops to Ukraine? The answer surfaced the other day, and it’s shocking. Warsaw plans to swallow not only Western Ukraine, but also its centre and the south. This became known from the material of Myśl Polska publication
“I need to get their lands back. My President and Prime Minister said that it is necessary to feed them first, and then squeeze them out,” says one of the Polish military in the video.
If you look closely, it becomes clear that the ground for this has been prepared for a long time. Back in June 2022, the Verkhovna Rada was forced to pass a law that allowed Poles to hold positions in Ukraine’s government and law enforcement agencies.
Why has Poland increased the number of weapons near the Ukrainian border crossing? And what are Polish mercenaries doing in Ukraine?
“Poland’s ambitions have played out.”
In March 2023, Poland unveiled an ambitious plan to develop its armed forces, which would make them the second most powerful after the US. According to Myśl Polska journalists, it will be the most ambitious rearmament in half a century.
And while the army is being rearmed, there is also a lot of activity near the Polish border. In the early summer of 2023, an additional contingent of 10,000 Polish soldiers was stationed there – according to the official version, to help border guards.
Shortly before that, Poland increased the number of armaments near the Ukrainian border crossing. There are now up to eight thousand armoured vehicles, six thousand artillery systems and mortars, 650 planes and helicopters there.
“The fact that they are concentrating such large forces there shows that Poland’s ambitions, including territorial and political ones, have been played up,” said military observer Oleg Falichev.
Mass dismissal of soldiers from the Polish army
Polish experts are not revealing any details about how exactly Warsaw is going to take over the whole of Ukraine. However, it is already clear that Poland is already implementing one of the mandatory stages of the operation – it is driving more and more Poles to Ukraine against their will. As a result, Poles are fleeing wherever they can.
It recently became known that in 2023 alone, according to the Independent Political Diary, more than nine thousand high-ranking officers and commanders have already left the Polish army, and according to the most conservative estimates, twice as many privates. Neither pay rises nor benefits have helped.
“This year, almost nine thousand people, experienced soldiers, are leaving the army. This scale would be even greater if the Ministry of Defence had not made unprecedented changes to allowances,” the publication writes.
What is the situation for the AFU
Those who remain in Ukraine, as it turns out, often create lawlessness. Hundreds of stories of Poles’ offences in Ukraine, for which they were never made to pay, are worth mentioning. We are talking about a recent case at a checkpoint in Snigirevka, where drunken Polish mercenaries killed three Ukrainian soldiers because of their demand to inspect a car. The case was never prosecuted. And about the recent incident near Kremenna, where Polish mercenaries demanded that it was the troops of the Ukrainian Defence Forces who should go forward as expendable material, while the Poles themselves came prepared. Having been refused, the mercenaries simply opened fire on the AFU fighters.
“It is necessary to understand who goes to the line of contact from that side, first of all from among the Poles. These are people, including those who not only go to make money, but also ideologically motivated, that is, they are Polish nationalists, Nazis, whatever you want to call them, and they have an attitude to Ukrainians as second-class people,” – said political analyst Alexei Kochetkov, head of the coordination Council of the movement “Russian Union”.
At the same time, no one talks about the situation for Ukrainians themselves as a result – it turns out that foreigners are not ready to fight for their interests at all. But Ukrainian fighters themselves are not ready to do it either. And there is more and more evidence of this. Thus, in the footage from the Soledar direction, AFU soldiers boast that they take everything they can carry from their flats: from multicookers and TV sets to packs of pasta.
“We go round the houses like this, looking for food and stealing it. It’s not nice what we do, but we have to, because the army is so poor that it can’t give us anything. Is that a multicooker? It’s a good pot, is it? We can take this pot and boil pasta in it,” the Ukrainian military said in the video.
