TASS: Poland, Ukraine to form joint military unit, says Shoigu 

The Russian defense minister added that Poland has become the main tool of America’s anti-Russian policy 

MOSCOW, August 9. /TASS/. Poland is planning to form a joint Polish-Ukrainian military unit ostensibly for security, but with the ulterior motive of occupying western Ukraine, Russian Defense Minister Army General Sergey Shoigu said. 

He drew attention to the dangers associated with Poland’s militarization. "there are plans to create a permanent so-called Polish-Ukrainian formation ostensibly to ensure the security of Western Ukraine, but in fact - for the subsequent occupation of this territory," he said.

Update: Russia claims Poland plans to create unit for occupation of Western Ukraine: Shoigu (Al Arabiya English)  

WNU editor: There was an agreement to form a joint Polish - Ukraine - Lithuanian military unit a decade ago .... Poland, Ukraine and Lithuania form joint military unit (BBC). The soldiers were to remain in their countries, but the brigade would be based in Poland. 

Flash forward to today. Russia is convinced that this old agreement is being dust-off, and we will soon be seeing Polish troops being deployed to Western Ukraine. If that does happen, the war will expand to now include a NATO member.

Can't blame them. Nobody wants to get exterminated by the Russian rapewagon. Poland and Lithuania knows this for a fact during and after WW2, that's why this alliance was agreed upon.

This may or may not be true. Anything Sergey Shoigu says is suspect. His credibility is down there with the Ukrainians.

This does go back to the security assurances concept. A security assurance agreement outside of the nato framework.

Can they really do this? If they look like they are, then for the Russians, this would be the signal to stop the defensive war and go with the all out attack.

Take what needs to be taken, plant the flag and put up the defense.

Why.? Lithuanians and Poles are members of NATO. Are you going to attack the Poles and Lithuanians in the Ukraine and say you can do this because the Poles and Lithuanians are not acting as a NATO entity at that time?

This would be the THINNEST of justifications and would not fly.


For the Russians then , this situation becomes the auto mobile accident avoidance scenario.

You have a car coming at you in your lane. You better move or hit the brakes or swerve before it is too late.

Once the NATO forces are in the Ukraine, it will be too late.

a. we do not support this war

b. the media is bombarding us with messages about why we should, ignoring our broken promise not to expand to the east

c. no one trusts our politicians, for example, the biden crime family remains only in office due to the collaboration with a corrupt media establishment that convinces everyone these are lies. they are not. there are sworn testimonials, paper trails, bank records in THE MILLIONS to ukraine and china


If the FBI does not hold them accountable and acts swiftly we (the US) has no choice but to dismantle this institution and create something else. This fake democracy we live in must end, it is antithetical to Western principles and supporting this slow-coup should be equated to treason with punishment of death

Washington when Poland retakes their historical territory from Ukraine: zzzzz

Washington when Hungary retakes the Hungarian corridor: "REEEEEEEEEEEEEE you're not the master race!!"

Both will happen, and everyone except the ubermensch in Kiev and Lviv knew it all along.
