DISINFO: Poland continues to tear off Ukraine and Belarus from Russia even during the pandemic

SUMMARY

Even during the pandemic, Poland continues to look at the world through the prism of ideas of Józef Piłsudski, who dreamed about the establishment of a united Federal state in Eastern Europe in order to defend from the Russian influence. The Polish establishment has worked for the same goal since the beginning of the ’90s – it wants to include Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova into its sphere of influence. Russia can be sure that even during the apocalypse, Poland will continue tearing off Ukraine and Belarus from her.

RESPONSE

This message is part of the Kremlin’s policy of historical revisionism alleging that Poland has imperialist plans for Ukraine and Belarus. The Kremlin-controlled media regularly accuses the political elites of Poland in Russophobia and implementation of anti-Russian policies. Poland fully supports the independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine and Belarus, it does not have any territorial claims against its neighbours and it rejects any “imperial” ambitions towards other countries. Read other examples of the Russian disinformation messages regarding the issue of an alleged Polish “Imperialism” - Polish authorities are obsessed with an idea of reconstruction of a modern Polish empire and The Giedroyc Doctrine is an edition of the Polish imperialism.
