Poland plans to deploy 10,000 troops to its border with Belarus
Poland’s defense minister says the country intends to put 10,000 soldiers along its border with Belarus.
Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said 10,000 soldiers would ultimately be deployed to the border area. He made the announcement in a state radio interview a day after a different official said Poland was sending 2,000 additional troops to the border over the next two weeks, essentially doubling its military presence there.
We know that we're protected by the 5th article of NATO. The thing is, the ruling Law and Justice party wants to escalate the sense of insecurity in order to boost its popularity before the upcoming elections on 15 October.
26This is obviously terrible but probably necessary when we look at how the whole thing is developing. Once you look aggressive enough you might be lucky so bullies leave you alone.
22More of the same very slow escalation
8Who hurt you Poland!
Ooh... Yeah but that whole thing was ages ago.

6It's almost like the Poles remember what happened last time shit like this was going down.
1Almost like Poles have a regime that's going to send them to die in a pointless war, and they've learned nothing over the past two years. Of course, you probably think Ukraine is going to win this and all those hundreds of thousands of deaths will be worth it.
