Historical errors?

Didn’t Russia take the eastern third of Poland at the end of WWII?

Are they panning on giving that back?

Much of what used to be called “Eastern Poland” now belongs to Lithuania and Belarus.

The article title is misleading. What is being proposed is undoing the Nazi-Soviet lines and returning parts of Ukraine to Hungary, Poland and Romania, the parts that were taken from them.

The article title suggests the proposal is to reinstate the Nazi-Soviet lines when, in fact, those lines are now more or less essentially the borders. The proposal would undo the Nazi-Soviet lines.

I suppose in the long run Putin will take as much as he is given - unless the rest of Europe is prepared to move NATO’s people and assets towards the borders of these countries then they are gifting them to Putin! I don’t see why the USA would want to get involved atm other than to add verbal support for Europe but if the EU are not willing to stand up now they should not expect help on the ground later!

Stalin pushed Poland west, ethnically cleansed the formerly German territories, and pushed the USSR’s border west, driving all before it.

Then the Germans will want Danzig, Breslau and East Prussia back.
