Looks fake. The walk around like tourists. Not special forces...
You are right in the middle of the crisis, west of Donbass. Please try to report about the situation if something happens. I bookmarked your posts as important Ukraine intel. Thank You!!
And also it is worth noting that a lot of people here have some negative sentiment towards Ukrainians. You can see on the Twitter things like Galicia and Volhynia being mentioned a lot recently. It does not look good, a large influx of immigrants and suicidal sanctions against Russia will result in Poland being destabilized. Pluto's return at its finest.Exactly my observation as well
People here are constantly being brainwashed by media, the hate is enormous and seen everywhere. They predict nuclear war and post-apocaliptic world
You quote Ilya !!!! Come on, what does this have to do with the present situation.
Yes, some people talk about Wolyn and that "we shouldn't help Ukrainians because of Wolyn", but the exact same people think that Putin is trying to take over Europe. The vast majority is pro helping Ukraine though. Poland will once again suffer because of West empire-Russia conflict.And also it is worth noting that a lot of people here have some negative sentiment towards Ukrainians.

Poles better read history closely. Certainly at least that in the XX Century and at the start of WW II and on. When I started to dig into the geopolitical evolution of Europe from around 14th century on I was mighty surprised how Poland was handled when WW II started. I will just put this in because anything more simply diverges from this threads topic.I'm not hearing good things from Poland. The Poles are heavily brainwashed against Russia and the hate is blind / irrational. They are being worked up about Russia's move into Ukraine and think the whole of Eastern Europe will go back into Russian control.
Despite their previous reassurances, they didn’t leap to defend Poland. They had no troops in the area at the time and hadn’t yet mustered the political will or military capacity to begin sending any. The Poles pleaded with the British to bomb German air bases, but the British refused. They feared that if they bombed the Germans before the Germans bombed them, they might alienate the Americans.
Yes, videos of Ukrainian soldiers waving white flags are already circulating:The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reports that Ukrainian border guards do not offer any resistance to Russian troops
МО РФ сообщает, что украинские пограничники не оказывают никакого сопротивления российским войскам
Latvia has said it won't issue visas to Russians.Did Baltic states condemn the invasion, in the sea of condemnations ? It could be very "significant".
The package of sanctions announced by the U.S. Administration, already in the 101st time, affecting the financial sector with the expansion of the list of individuals against whom personal restrictions are imposed, goes in line with Washington's ongoing attempts to change Russia's course.
Despite the obvious futility of the efforts made over the years to hinder the development of our economy, the U.S. has once again reflexively seized upon restrictive instruments that are ineffective and counterproductive from the standpoint of American interests.
Russia has proven that for all the costs of sanctions, it is capable of minimizing the damage inflicted. And certainly not sanctions pressure can affect our determination to firmly defend our interests.
We note that the arsenal of U.S. foreign policy, which is captive to the stereotypes of a unipolar world with the false conviction that the United States still has the right and ability to impose its own rules of the world order, has no other means but blackmail, intimidation, and threats. This does not work with the world powers, primarily Russia and other key international players. Let the "cries" from the U.S. be followed by their satellites and clients, who have completely lost their independence. But we are open to diplomacy based on the principles of mutual respect, equality and consideration for each other's interests.
There should be no doubts - the sanctions will be met with a strong response, not necessarily symmetrical, but will be calibrated to be felt by the American side.
