What is going to be interesting is when Putin annexes part of Poland to protect ethnic Russians there.

Putin is not going to annex Poland - he’s going to give Lwow, Grodno, Brest and possibly Wilno BACK to Poland.

Which begs the question - what about Breslau, Stettin, Danzig, and Königsberg?

There virtually no ethnic Russians in Poland.....That was one benefit of Poland getting her Eastern part taken away after the war....Poland is almost exclusively Polish, unlike pre-war Poland that was only 70% Polish.

Poland is mostly Polish, there are not many other ethnic groups there. This does beg a larger question though, any bordering nation that is watching this and not rethinking their defense/reserve strategy are idiots. I’ve always thought that Swiss have a terrific solution to this; prepare defenses throughout the country and assure the populace is trained. Based on the Swiss Model, the Poles could easily mobilize a five or six million man army.
