Y’all don’t know how the Poles suffered under Soviet rule.
I don’t think they want to repeat that.
They suffered greatly under German rule, but that has largely been eliminated.
But if you lived next to the Russians today you’d be making lots of guns.
And the Ukraine and Lithuania suffered under Polish rule. And Poland invaded and occupied parts of Slovakia right before WWII. Every country in Europe has grievances against its neighborhoods.
The USSR disappeared in 1990s.
Well, the Poles are certainly buying lots of “guns”. (And making South Korean arms makers very very happy.)
