I'm rather assuming that the Polish ambassador to France is relatively senior and experienced and not going off script. Probably not surprising all things considered. link |

I would think their initial move would be to isolate Kaliningrad and attempt to close the port. It could make a great negotiating point to trade Kaliningrad for the Russian occupied areas in Ukraine. I also think such a move could well initiate a nuclear response from Russia as I don't think Russia could militarily retake the area. |

BTW, IIRC, the US has about 4000-5000 Troops in a Combined Arms Battle Grp[I forget what they call it today!] stationed in Poland. Units rotate in and out. But there is at least that many US troops there all the time now, AFAIK. Plus, some other NATO forces are there too. Must really  off Vlad royally. But not enough to stop him from invading Poland. I've discussed this before, so I don't want to be DH'd…again 🐶🏡 'nuff said … |
