RT: Intelligence obtained by Russia suggests that Poland and the US are working on a plan for Warsaw to regain control of Ukrainian areas that Warsaw considers as “historically belonging” to it, Moscow’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) chief Sergey Naryshkin has said. According to the alleged plan, the first stage of this “reunification” will see Polish “peacekeepers” deployed in western Ukraine under the pretext of “protection from Russian aggression,” Naryshkin outlined in a statement on Thursday. The details of the operation are now being discussed between Warsaw and the US government, he claimed, adding that the operation is designed to be executed without a NATO mandate, and only volunteer states taking part. Warsaw has so far been unable to find any other nations to join its cause, he added. But the Polish authorities are unconcerned by this, as they want to minimize the number of “unnecessary witnesses” to their actions, Naryshkin said. Despite their publicly declared goal of countering Moscow, the Polish troops would be deployed in parts of Ukraine where they’ll have almost no chance of engaging Russian forces, he explained. According to Russian data, the actual “tactical objective” of the Polish troops will be taking control of strategic facilities from the Ukrainian National Guard. Poland’s intelligence services are apparently now searching for “reliable” members of the Kiev elite, who would be willing to form a pro-Warsaw counterbalance to Ukrainian nationalists. The Polish government assumes that entrenching its forces in western Ukraine would, with a high probability, lead to the split of the country, he claimed. In this case, control over the territories where the peacekeepers are set to be deployed would remain in the hands of Warsaw, the spy chief continued. The plan appears to be an attempt, he pointed out, to repeat an historic deal that was struck after World War I and saw Western nations accept Warsaw’s right to occupy, in the first instance, parts of Ukraine to protect its people from the “Bolshevik threat” and, later, to include those areas into the Polish state. This almost sounds like Russian propaganda to be used against Ukrainians who believe that Poland is their greatest ally. However, as I’ve pointed out many times: thus far, we’ve yet to catch the Russian government purposefully distributing false information about the Ukrainian situation. Frankly, they appear to believe that it is better to keep to the truth and be reliable about that. Of course, “we have intelligence leading us to believe…” is the lightest form of lie you can tell, if you do want to tell a lie. So maybe it is a lie. It sounds crazy, but you know what also sounds crazy? Poland’s fanatical support for “Ukraine neo-Nazism.” We keep hearing these people talking about Stepan Bandera, who was ostensibly “an ally of Nazi Germany.” While that is technically true, sort of, he was actually imprisoned by Nazi Germany, and only let out at the end of the war.
