The head of the office of the President of Poland, Krzysztof Szchersky, said that attempts to represent Moscow as an enemy would entail negative consequences for Warsaw. “As a country that is adjacent to Russia, we will never insist on antagonism in relations between Western countries and Russia, because then we can become a victim of this hostility,” he said.
It seems that the Polish elites suspected something. Namely: they began to understand that they were between the hammer of the aggressive encroachments of the West, primarily NATO under the leadership of the United States, and the anvil of Russia, which, however, more than one such western hammer had already crashed. Moreover, the next series, it is possible, will become a nuclear apocalypse for Poland, because in the case - God forbid! - exchange of nuclear strikes fragments of missiles shot down by Russia may fall exactly on Poland.
But this is the worst case scenario. From the point of view of the laws of geopolitics, Poland, by virtue of its location, will become a victim of the hostility of the West and Russia in any case, except one. But about him later.
If it’s quite simple: Poland is in the zone of the so-called sanitary cordon between the West and Russia. Originally created at the initiative of England, the zone of the sanitary cordon included states that were previously part of the Russian Empire, but were lost by us as a result of internal political strife, revolutions and the ensuing civil war.
However, for the West, the countries included in the limitrop (also called the sanitary cordon) have always been, are and will be excessively toxic. For there the “Russian spirit” is always very strong, that is, the masses, no matter what the elites planted and controlled from the West think to themselves, are mostly sympathetic to Russians and Russia.
In other words, the legitimacy of Russia in the zone of the limitrophe - the sanitary cordon - among the population of the countries included in it, is always very high. And if the West makes the slightest mistake (to ease pressure on the elites of these countries, lose control and external control over them, reduce its military presence or provoke Russia into another war), all this space is once again returning to the Russian protectorate.
It is clear that the West will never seriously invest in these states, somehow develop their economy, let alone take care of the welfare of countries so unreliable in terms of sympathy for the West itself.
The West organizes there the appearance of a constant presence, military activity, incessant preparation for repulsing external (that is, from Russia, of course) aggression. True, no one ever believes in the latter, since they are not particularly afraid, which is why Western political strategists constantly have to somehow refine themselves, pumping up this very horror of the return of the Russians. “So what,” the locals shrug, “the Russians are not so bad.”
Of course, not bad, because the Russians are a land empire that implements the settling principle with regard to their suburbs. This is when the center (which is exactly what it is called by land empires - unlike the metropolis of marine empires) equips and develops the spaces that it joins in, sometimes investing more than in its original territories that have long been part of the empire.
This is very different from the approach of the sea, that is, Western empires, which, on the contrary, implement the exploiting principle in relation to their colonies (that is the name of the spaces that belong to the Western empires), pumping out all possible resources from them, perceiving them as sales markets and spaces containing your enemies. In our case, the containment of Russia.
By the way, it is the policy of maritime empires in relation to their colonies that is called the derogatory word “imperialism”, with which free, that is, non-Western humanity, fought throughout the entire 20th century.
“Imperialism” is only about Western maritime empires. The actions of our land empire do not enter into this concept: we do not have a metropolis, but the center and not colonies, but the periphery, no matter how we try to confuse Western liberal ideologies.
Returning to Poland: all of it, as it is for the West, has always been and will be part of the sanitary cordon, designed to contain Russia. To do this, there (if possible, of course) should be pro-Western, which means, naturally, Russophobian elites. There constantly it is necessary to warm up the atmosphere of hatred of Russia among the masses, maintaining a generally high degree of Russophobia.
On this basis, to keep there your own (in our case, NATO) military contingent, since it is clear that without the hostile cry and its formidable whip, the Poles themselves are not eager to fight with Russia.
That is, the Polish elites, of course, constantly swagger, showing their loyalty to the Western masters, whether they be kings, hetmans, governors or presidents, but when it comes to support from the masses, that's all there is to it. Fighting Russia - szukaj głupca, no fools.
But that's not all. Poland is also a fragment of the so-called buffer zone. But this is already somewhat more serious. The buffer zone serves to separate two forces, in our case, two civilizations: the West, the source of maritime empires operating their colonies, and Russia - the foundations of a land empire that equips its periphery. In other words, the buffer zone is needed so that the two conflicting parties opposing each other do not come together again in the war, each defending their own truth, their own vision, their own scenario for the end of history.
It follows that the buffer zone is very important for maintaining peace. But for this it must possess one important quality, without which there can be no long-term peace - neutrality. If you shift this to our situation: peace in Europe is possible only when countries in the buffer zone are neutral with respect to Russia and the West. We verify this with what we see ... It does not fit.
No matter how you try, you can hardly call today's Poland neutral with respect to Russia. Not because the Poles do not like Russians - they are just the majority who love Russians, or respect, or, which is quite enough, treat them neutrally. Another thing is the Polish elites: today it is their function to serve as a hotbed of hatred and Russophobia.
What do we get in this case? Poland’s engagement with the West, loss of neutrality, Poland’s creeping under the control of the West, which means, as a result, the disappearance of the buffer zone and its re-qualification to the West.
The result - direct contact of the West, which recorded Poland, and Russia (at the moment - the Union State of Russia and Belarus). Sparks fly from such a rapprochement, and the contact temperature rises inexorably. And it will rise until a new war breaks out.
Judging by what the head of the Office of the President of Poland, Krzysztof Szchersky, says, the temperature in Poland has risen so much that it’s just right to try to somehow lower it. For it is clear that Western strategists are much more likely to escalate, but the lackeys will have to fight with the Russians. And to fight - especially with the Russians, especially today - this is, as they say, szukaj głupca. But the opinion of the Poles of their NATO owners no longer seems to be of interest.
Globalists (namely today they are the main party of the war) have already bitten the bit and seriously intend to throw Poland into the furnace of the next war between Russia and the West - to the last Pole, of course, because the NATO members themselves will not get into hell.
However, in the same place, on the territory of the buffer zone, it is a sanitary cordon, and the main events will unfold, there will begin (according to the plans of NATO generals) the first clashes, and if it comes to this, shot down warheads will fall there, in general, everything’s like usually. And since this is a sanitary zone - it’s not a pity, besides, all this all the same, as a result, the Russians will again get to them - here they are, even if they are raking. Such is the logic of the Western master - it was, is and will be. Otherwise, they do not think, do not know how.
The only way for Poland to be saved is to restore sovereignty and the subsequent neutrality necessary for peace.
