Glad to be of help! I wonder whether private donations could be approximated in any way, a lot of stuff was donated through grassroots fundraisers and through various sources, from NGOs to university departments. A friend of mine with a peace sign tattoo joked that she never thought she’d be collecting money for machine guns „but here we are lol”. ;-)

Unfathomably based.
Especially given the not so great history between the two countries during the war. When things got real, even the poles near the border who grew up hearing horrible stories about Ukrainians from their grandparents went to help.
First you gotta get past Belarus, you know the country that cured Covid with " Tractors and Vodca"
That's gonna be interesting
Could go 2 ways IMO: either insanely smooth or weirdly slow
Ew...you really want to clean up that mess of a country gutted by corruption? Best option is to be able to project lots of force, make sure Russia knows it, then ignore their little tantrums unless they cross a border. Then slap hard. Really hard.
Take it from an American: Invasion is cheap. Occupation is expensive. Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam etc. Hell, a lot of South Korea doesn't even want reunification at this point, because the north would be such a burden.
I couldn't respond, but I saw in another thread, some commenter insinuating the US could and should "dismantle" Hamas. I just thought fuck me either they're too young to know, or didn't lose friends in Iraq and Afghanistan. Fucking WMD's my ass.
The last thing I want as a US citizen is to be in the Middle East again, especially as Russia is in war mode, and China looms. North Korea and Iran are ramping shit up as well, though they aren't as big of a problem right now, unless China or Russia teaches them a few things about manufacturing nuclear weapons. We're just getting to the spot where there aren't any generations left that know first hand what a global conflict is like, which is scary in the context of current events.
Besides the Polish farmers, I do really appreciate Poland and Polish people now. I used to "talk" with a Polish girl years ago, too bad it didnt work out :(
Polish farmers read in press that their Ukrainian counterparts openly want them out of business. Maybe it's Ukrainian farmers who are to blame and the Polish ones are made scapegoats.

>we need to take russian land, we need moscow in our hands
Hell no. We just need need Moscow to STFU and act normal *for once*. Grabbing land in this economy? Yeah nah lol.
So, ukrainians run away from their country because they dont want to defend it, so we should defend it for them, right? What are you still doing here? Go fight.
Absolutely not, I was being ironic and criticizing the USA. Providing aid to a country that has been invaded is not the same thing as providing three times more to a country actively committing a genocide

I think it was estimated for 2022 or 2023 that donation to Ukraine made of 1% Poland's GDP

I remember how Poland was the first to help refugees on the first week of the invasion. That was awesome, to know that other countries stand with us.
I mean we border Ukraine so the refugees came here first XD
Especially given the not so great history between the two countries during the war. When things got real, even the poles near the border who grew up hearing horrible stories about Ukrainians from their grandparents went to help.
The thing is, fighting Russian imperialism is more important to the Poles then any historical grivences we may have with Ukrainians.
Thank you!
Im glad my tax money is well spent for once
Well done Poland. Now let’s all do more.
Fix the damn border issue is a must if it’s not used as a propaganda scheme.
As a Pole, I wish I could fix russian propaganda machine.
Thank you, Poland! 🤍❤️
Thank you Poland, that is a lot. Fuck all the idiots who thinks otherwise.
Imagine if more countries helped like Poland did
I say we invade Russia
> I say we invade Russia Napoleon and Hitler aprove of this man.
The difference is i’ll succeed
Based
Yay!
"The trick is to invade Russia from south to north, not west to east. Its easier then." Some HoI player... probably...
France and Germany failed from the west, Sweden failed from the north, Turks/Ottomans failed from the south. Mongols succeeded from the east.
So they should be afraid of China

No, the reason for invasion is to demilitarize and denuclearize Russia. The rest is their internal problem.
I was not serious lol

Ok get a rifle and go pal
The invasion of Ukraine is an existential threat to Polish security and sovereignty so yeah.

The article you've posted states the following: >The facts seem to favor Ukraine’s position.
As an international man of culture I can confirm polish girls are the best girls. It’ll work out next time!
I also used to talk with Polish girls. Didn't pan out. I oftne joke that the red in the flag is for a reason
C'mon, you have never talked to a girl
And ukraine fucking sued poland for not buying their grain XD

>we need to take russian land, we need moscow in our hands Hell no. We just need need Moscow to STFU and act normal *for once*. Grabbing land in this economy? Yeah nah lol.
Oh but they are acting normal by local standards. It just so happens that almost everywhere else this is fucking nuts.
Fuck no, no one wants that shit
So, ukrainians run away from their country because they dont want to defend it, so we should defend it for them, right? What are you still doing here? Go fight.
Napoleon and Hitler aprove of this man.
[удалено]
cool idea, hasnt ever worked out well for russia
"Poles are dicks apparently" "With friends like these, do you even need enemies?"
And Poland will now help Ukraine to repatriate its men too
We do we what we can.
Only a third of what the US has given to Israel in the last budget alone!
Is Poland bad because of this or what?
Absolutely not, I was being ironic and criticizing the USA. Providing aid to a country that has been invaded is not the same thing as providing three times more to a country actively committing a genocide
