DISINFO: Warsaw is using the Polish minority in Belarus to serve geopolitical games of Washington
SUMMARY
Warsaw periodically is using Polish national minorities for the realisation of topical geopolitical tasks linked to Washington's instructions.
In his famous book “The Great Chessboard” one of the creators of Washington's foreign policy Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote about the potential of the use of ethnic conflict in the post-Soviet area for destabilisation of Russia's near abroad.
It explains why Warsaw is riding the wave against the country, which is participating in the Eurasian integration. It is Polish input into the new Cold War. Warsaw is ready to fight against Moscow till the last Pole in Belarus.
RESPONSE
Recurring disinformation against Poland portraying this state as vassal and puppet of the US.
Throughout March 2021, the authoritarian authorities of Belarus arrested a number of representatives of the Polish minority living in Belarus under various fake accusations (such as “rehabilitation of Nazism” and “incitement to national hatred”). The list of arrested persons includes the leader of the Belarusian Union of Poles Anzhelika Borys, a journalist Andrzej Poczobut and several teachers from local Polish schools. Some of the arrested activists may be sentenced to up to 12 years in prison. Read more about the situation around arrested representatives of the Polish minority living in Belarus here.
Poland and the EU appeal to the Belarusian authorities to stop political repressions and persecution against the Polish minority in Belarus.
Pro-Kremlin disinformation is interpreting Warsaw’s attempts to stand up for the Polish minority in Belarus as part of a geopolitical game against Russia. It is also not the first time when Poland is represented as a tool of the US (and other countries). See similar cases of disinformation: Poland behaves like an American slave, unable to break a vicious circle of Russophobia; Lithuania and Poland are competing for the destabilisation of Belarus to please the US; The Polish attitude towards Ukraine is the result of American and Israel pressure.
