Poland & the Soviet Union sharing Christian values didn't prevent this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyn_massacreAgreed we voted to leave the E.U, why? Will we be allowed to leave? Italy will leave the E.U. The fact that Russia is a white christian country with christian values and want to keep their culture which is what we Brits, Italians and Poles want. Which is opposite to what the E.U have planned. Sharing the same values brings people together.
Poles aren't orthodoxPoland & the Soviet Union sharing Orthodox Christian values didn't prevent this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyn_massacre
When we played Alania in Warsaw, witnessing the rebuilt city flattened by the Nazis while Stalin waited across the river was humbling. Poles of my generation joke that the eagle on their national flag looks both ways to watch their traditional enemies, Germany & Russia
You're correct, John, thanks. I've removed Orthodox from my post. Point remaining that shared Christian values saved no Poles. Most Poles I've met deeply mistrust their neighbours from the east, e.g. a Crimea-style land grab. Moltov Ribbentrop pact-style.Poles aren't orthodox
