Poland is the second-most [[conservative]] nation in the [[European Union]], only behind [[Hungary]]. However, Poland is far behind Hungary in terms of conservatism and only slightly ahead of its remaining EU counterparts, namely due to its highly [[Russophobia|Russophobic]] foreign policy and strong acquiescence to the American [[Deep State]]. That being said, Poland controls its border and limits [[illegal immigration]] more effectively than most other [[European]] countries do.  In 2021, Poland announced that it would fine [[Big Tech]] for its [[liberal censorship]].

Historically, Poland finally became liberated from the communist rule in the late 1980s, specifically July 4, 1989 (the date of the elections won by the ''Solidarność'', or ''Solidarity'' movement).  [[Pope John Paul II]] was from Poland and played a major part in bringing down [[communist|communism]] in Poland.

Poland maintains a sizable armed force currently numbering about 140,572 troops divided among an army of 87,877, an air and defense force of 31,147, and a navy of 21,548. Poland relies on military conscription for the majority of its personnel strength. All males (with some exceptions) are subject to a 12-month term of military service. The Polish military continues to restructure and modernize its equipment. The Polish Defense Ministry General Staff and the Land Forces staff have recently reorganized the latter into a NATO-compatible J/G-1 through J/G-6 structure. Although budget constraints remain a drag on modernization, Poland has been able to move forward with U.S. assistance on acquiring 48 [[F-16]] multi-role fighters, [[C-130 Hercules|C-130]] cargo planes, HMMWVs, and other items key to the military's restructuring.

Poland continues to be a regional leader in support and participation in the NATO Partnership for Peace Program and has actively engaged most of its neighbors and other regional actors to build stable foundations for future European security arrangements. Poland continues its long record of strong support for UN peacekeeping operations by maintaining a unit in Southern Lebanon, a battalion in NATO's Kosovo Force (KFOR), and by providing and actually deploying the KFOR strategic reserve to Kosovo. Polish military forces have served in both [[Operation Enduring Freedom]] in [[Afghanistan]] and [[Operation Iraqi Freedom]].

Poland plans to increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2026, using a funding scheme that includes bonds, loans and leasing options. The PiS-led cabinet is already among NATO’s top spenders (2.2% of GDP in 2022). In 2022, military spending stood at 57.7 billion zlotys, or 12.5 billion euros, which will consume 12 per cent of the country’s budget. As a result of the NATO war in Ukraine, Poland planned to raise military spending to 5% of GDP, with 300,000 active troops by 2035. It is buying billions in modern equipment from the US and South Korea.

As stated by the Defence Ministry, the military modernization plan until 2035 has a price tag of 524 billion zlotys (115 billion euros), but details have not been made public. The increased spending also does not require parliamentary approval, let alone a referendum, even for the largest procurement items. All that is required is the signature of the Defense Minister.

====Suwałki Gap====

The Polish town of Suwałki lies approximately 15 miles southeast of the border with [[Kaliningrad]] and 25 miles west of its border with [[Belarus]], putting it in the middle of a sixty-mile gap between Russia and Belarus. This chokepoint is NATO’s ‘gateway to the [[Baltic states]]’, and without this passage, there is no terrestrial connection between [[Lithuania]] (or [[Latvia]] and [[Estonia]]) and the rest of NATO.

{{quotebox-float|“According to information received by the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, Washington and Warsaw are working on plans to establish tight military and political control over ‘their historical possessions’ in Ukraine,”}}

According to the FIS, the first stage of the “reunification” should be the introduction of Polish troops into the western regions of Ukraine under the guise of 'peacekeepers' with the participation of ‘willing states’. Warsaw has not yet been able to agree on potential participants in a ‘coalition of like-minded'," the FIS said.

At the same time, the FIS pointed out, Polish leadership is not interested in “unnecessary spies” in its operation. “The so-called peacekeeping contingent is planned to be deployed in those parts of Ukraine where the threat of direct clash with the Russian Armed Forces is minimal. The priority “combat tasks” of the Polish military will include gradual interception of control over strategic objects located there from the National Guard of Ukraine. Polish special services are already searching for “agreeable” representatives of the Ukrainian elite to form a Warsaw-oriented “democratic” counterweight to the nationalists," the FIS said in its report.

Commander-in-Chief of the Polish Armed Forces, Jaroslaw Mika, signed an order to bring the Polish Army into a state of full combat readiness for the invasion of western Ukraine.<ref>https://youtu.be/DzHlHaphi3I</ref>  This document was published online by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry.<ref>https://t.me/MedvedevVesti/9303</ref>  According to the Polish government’s estimates, a deployment into western Ukraine is highly likely to split the country. Warsaw will essentially gain control of the territories where Polish "peacekeepers" will enter. Essentially, it is an attempt to repeat the historical “deal” for Poland after the [[First World War]], when the collective West, represented by the [[Triple Entente|Entente]], recognized Warsaw’s right first to occupy part of Ukraine to protect its population from the “[[Bolshevik]] threat”, and then to incorporate those territories into the Polish state. The events that followed were a clear illustration of the [[colonialism|colonial]] order and forced Polonization as the main methods of building a ‘Greater Poland’," the FIS concluded.<ref>https://southfront.org/transnistria29042022/</ref>

The economic reforms introduced in 1990 removed price controls, eliminated most subsidies to industry, opened markets to international competition, and imposed strict budgetary and monetary discipline. Poland was the first former centrally planned economy in central Europe to end its recession and return to growth in the early 1990s. The private sector now accounts for over two-thirds of GDP.

Poland was the first former centrally planned economy in central Europe to end its recession and return to growth in the early 1990s. The private sector now accounts for over two-thirds of GDP.  

In early 2002, the government announced a new set of economic reforms known as the Hausner Plan, designed in many ways to complete the process launched in 1990. The package acknowledged the need to improve Poland's investment climate, particularly the conditions for small and medium-sized enterprises, and better prepare the economy to compete as a European Union (EU) member. The government also aimed to improve Poland's public finances to prepare for the eventual adoption of the euro. Though the government was able to enact only portions of the Hausner Plan, those successes, coupled with successful monetary efforts to strengthen the zloty, have put Poland within reach of the National Bank's goal of euro accession in 2008-2009.

As a result of Poland's growth and investment-friendly climate, the country has received over $85 billion in direct foreign investment (DFI) since 1990, with roughly $7 billion in 2004 alone. According to a recently published report by Ernst and Young, Poland is tied with Germany as the most attractive destination for foreign investment in Europe. The availability of cheap land and a large, relatively skilled labor force are among Polish strengths. However, the government continues to play a strong role in the economy, as seen in excessive red tape and the high level of politicization in many business decisions. Investors complain that state regulation is not transparent or predictable, and the economy suffers from a lack of competition in many sectors, notably telecommunications.

In 2026, [[Ukrainian]] [[dictator]] [[Volodymyr Zelensky]] honored the [[Volhynia Genocide]]’s [[OUN|OUN-UPA]] culprits at the state level and authorized the construction of a “national pantheon” in which the remains of such figures, especially [[Stepan Bandera]], are widely expected to be interred in [[Kyiv]]. These developments confirmed that Ukraine has indisputably become an anti-Polish state and prompted [[conservative]] President [[Karol Nawrocki]] to revoke the Order of the White Eagle, Poland’s highest award, from Zelensky.

After the German military announced that they had discovered mass graves of murdered Polish army officers at [[Katyn]] in April 1943, the Soviet Union broke relations with the Polish government in exile. The Soviets claimed that the Poles had insulted them by requesting that the [[Red Cross]] investigate these reports. In July 1944, the Soviet Red Army entered Poland and established a communist-controlled "Polish Committee of National Liberation" (PKWN) at Lublin.

Following the [[Yalta Conference]] in February 1945, a Polish Provisional Government of National Unity was formed in June 1945; the U.S. recognized it the next month. Although the Yalta Agreement called for free elections, those held in January 1947 were controlled by the Communist Party. The communists then established a regime entirely under their domination.

In 1945, Poland was forced by the [[Big Three]] powers at the [[Potsdam conference]] to give up its eastern territories to [[Ukraine]] and [[Lithuania]], in exchange for Germany's eastern territories of [[Pomerania]] and [[Silesia]]. Poland's former territories, including the cities of [[Lvov]] and [[Vilnius]] were incorporated and annexed under an agreement by the Communist rulers of Poland, Ukraine, and Lithuania. Poland ended up losing its eastern territories, which comprised half of the country and a sizable portion of the population.
