Now we see what the Russian Civil War of 2023 was all about. Getting Wagner off Russian soil (Donbas) which is required by Russian law and bulking up Belarus for an anticipated clash with Poland/Lithuanian. Many FReepers called this almost immediately.

Oh yeah. Create an Army shot through with paid mercenaries. People who will change sides at the drop of a hat. Brilliant plan.

Making mercenaries a core component of one’s army never ends well for a would-be generalissimo.

The EU/US policy of destabilization of the Middle East deliberately produced weaponized Islamic Migrants moving West designed to destabilize Eastern Europe.

For a while, Western European nations paid and otherwise coerced Eastern European nations to stall the migrants in the East with situations like Kosovo.

International Rights Organizations prevailed enough to get general agreement that Migrants be allowed to continue westward across borders.

Belarus has allowed Migrants across it's territory as per international agreement.

Poland has refused to honor their agreement and regularly militarily blocks the Migrants and drives them back to Belarus by force.

Belarus regularly destroys blockades and fences at border crossings so Migrants can cross into Poland as agreed, and Poland rebuilds them.

Belarus likely will reinforce their Border Guard with Wagner Pros and the agreed Migrant entry into Poland will begin for Real.
