Headline is misleading . Seems you were treated very well in Poland .
*Why do Polish people hate Russians more than any other nation in Europe or probably in the World? I am a Pakistani, I live in America, and Polish and some Romanian people told me that Russians are assholes, but because Russians are usually nice with people of Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Siri Lanka, Egypt, and Morocco, therefore, it is hard for me to believe that Russians are assholes towards Polish, Romanian, Chechan, Tatar, Ukrainian, Czech, etc.*
Hi Svetlana, I'm glad that it worked out for you. Best wishes.
Happy you have your visa, but couldn’t watch entire video, I had a seizure from the lights flash it is ok. I am ok. Just happy for you.
So what did anything have to do with the USA 🇺🇸? In the beginning? When are you coming to the USA 🇺🇸?
Poland is the most Russorealistic country in the world.
Britain's bitches, actually.
The way your country is run, are you surprised? Russian passport should be banned.
You are simply zombified by propaganda about Russia and that’s all
Actually not - you are too emotional about the past. Yes, the past is very complicated, but it does not help you to be objective.
Russia is currently invading Ukraine, talk about the "past"@komandagleby_GB
Poland ain't phobic about Russia, phobic means irrational fear.
Having a negative opinion is not phobia, Russia got what it deserves in case of opinion by it's closest neighbours.
Not Russian people.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
oh they scared inside nato a paper tiger
tbf Poland hates most foreigners, especially those who are not white.
You're wrong. Phobia means fear but it also means intolerance and yes Poles are intolerant. They are intolerant of many people, which is typical of eastern Europeans. They should never have allowed Poland into the EU!!
Svetlana, you have not contemplated why Poles are a bit sceptical Russians?
1) Russia's involvement in Poland's three partitions, which led to Poland's non-existence for 123 yrs.
2) The Sovjet-Polish war 1919-21
3) The attack on Poland 1939
4) The Katyn massacre
5) The opression after the war 1945-1991
Europe as a whole for centuries has been like spiders in a bottle. This makes the fascinating history of those Spaniards, Napoleon (Bernadotte-Sweden), England, Austro-Hungary, and all the rest. And Germans, of course! I wonder if it makes the participants "a bit skeptical" about one another or if it is only about Russia? I believe Russia cannot be good for Europeans no matter what it does: it failed with Czars, Bolsheviks, and post-Soviets. Only a total loss of self-identity and interests is what is needed to satisfy you guys. Just be honest.
Your information field is 80-95% controlled by Western Soros foundations and a bunch of globalists from the USA. As a Russian, I am not at all interested in the Balts being under our boots! (Stalin was a Georgian of a different opinion, like Hitler’s ideology), Putin also believes in building a multipolar world after the collapse of the USSR, realizing that in the fight against Western colonialism only the unity of allied states defending their sovereignty, the national interests of the people and the state, such as Viktor Orban together with Hungary and others. Why doesn't he bend to the European Union? Because this obviously contradicts the interests of his state. Everyone who bends to America in one way or another has no opinion and regrets it later..
On your television they will also not say why the Yankees are such scoundrels, that they are now, through their puppet rulers in the European Union, completely ruining the industrial base in Europe and moving production to the USA forcibly. They are also pushing Europeans to go to war with the Russians, just as they once sponsored Hitler! Their debt obligations are growing by trillions of $$$ every year and in order to have a reason to write them off, Biden and his bankers need a BIG war in Europe. Therefore, including on your Western TV, they pump you up with Russophobia, so that when the opportunity is convenient for them, they can manipulate you - send you to fight the Russians and liberate them from “dictator Putin”... thank you, we went through democratization in the 90s (with the complete collapse of the country and sovereignty !), just like Ukraine screwed up with Vicky Nuland’s cookies and survived the Maidan...The Poles/Fins and other Balts should sit quietly and then no one would even think of attacking you, you joined NATO when Russia could not object to its destroyed economy. Finland and Sweden in NATO do not particularly worry us - the population of all of Finland is less than one Russian city of St. Petersburg. 😅
Either you live neutrally like Canada 🇨🇦 towards the states (satellite of the USA) in relation to the Russians..or the Russians will have a reason to respond if your politicians, such as the paddling pool Macron, lead armies against Putin and the Russians..
No need to play Russian roulette like Zelensky, a drug addict.😢
But what about ("whatabout") 1604? There is nothing easier than to pull out a "whatabout" on this topic.
Instead, a much more direct question. The best strategy to keep and lick all the wounds is to ban all the travel.
So people can stay at home, communicate only electronically and call each other names.
So "whatabout" these illegal Schengen-visa limitations, illegal confiscations of cars with Russian license plates?
And who was the strongest opponent of this? Why it never was made public? Inconvenient for Ursula?
@@komandagleby_GB Russia could just not attack its neighbors? And perhaps learn to love itself more than it hates everyone else.
@@komandagleby_GB The thing about Russia is they are governed by old hogs who think they are still living in USSR times
Two Russians living in Warsaw. Never hiding our nationality. Met exclusively great people, Poles, Ukrainians, and Belorussians. Never had any issues because of our ethnicity
ationality with people, more of that, people usually are supportive and compassionate when they hear where we are from, as they understand difference between crazy regime and regular people, who also suffer from it.
What we are doing wrong if we are not feeling like living in "Most Russophobic country"?
Better ask what you are doing right. It is, you probably do not demonstrate infamous Russian chauvinism. Unfortunately most Russians do this though and that’s why they are not loved there.
How do you feel when regular people on the Moscow TV or in any street interview (YT) are fully supporting the war and Putin. Then they obey orders and go to the army. Do you think anyone still thinks they are ok?
@@zigzag5746 I feel as bad about that as probably any sane person. Unfortunately, this is how totalitarian fascist regimes works, with propaganda, fear and collective insanity.
Phobias are always created by politicians and media anyway.
Simple. If you call the Russian government crazy of course they’ll love you. Tell them you like Putin and that he’s done a great job pulling Russia out the terrible 90’s and we’ll see how friendly they are towards you….the answer is in your comment isn’t it.
It's safe in Poland unless you start waving Russian flag in public spaces, screaming "Hail Putin" or paint 'Z' on your forehead.
@grzegorzbrzeczyszczykiewic1139 That's understandable; don't forget that Russia split Poland with nazi Germany... and after WW2 Russia ruled Poland with an iron fist.
That's not understandable because Poland is not at var. It's understandable in Russia and Ukraine because they are at var. In Estonia, there's a prison sentence for supporting Russia publically. Estonia is not at var either! It's simply a limitation of liberties and the people are going along with it.
Ukraine has been shelling Russian Ukrainians in the East. That’s what’s been happening whether you like it or not. 14 000 people gone on both sides before 2022. Ukraine targeted civilians and not the military infrastructure. Has been doing so for ten years. The reason for that was that they were rebels. Poles are not on the right side here.
@@SW56964 I don't think they would arrest you for waving Russian flag but people would be mad and could harass you.
You could get wpierdol.
@@SW56964 Who called separatists to rebell? Who armed them? Who sent "green man" to assist them?
When separatists shot down civilian plane with su-300, did they buy it on Alli-Express?
Ukraine was shelling separatists. I'm not saying they're innocent but Russia clearly started this by annexing Crimea.
We might not be the biggest fans of Ukraine but Russia is simply worse and would have done worse to us if they got a chance.
Like they did in the past.
most rusophobic? i guess you havent been to Georgia, Estonia or Lithuania.. or Finland.. not to mention Ukraine. Every of your neighbours hates you, and i assume there must be a very serious reason for that. Maybe they just know their nations history very well...
nice try Zelensky bot

No need to generalise and hate every single person from Russia.
Serious brainwashing
Can someone answer the question of how long in the past Poland was the occupier of part of Russia? Greetings from Croatia!
Pierogi ruskie don't have anything to do with Russia, actually. The translation would be ruthenian pierogi. Ruthenia is a historical region in South-Eastern Poland and Ukraine, I believe.
@@poebuild I'm Polish.
Yes, I learned that. I believe the same people we call "Gutsul". They speak a language closer to Russian than even Ukrainian (or Slovak).
At least I can understand them better. I did meet few in Slovakia an Ukraine and never seen one who did not speak perfectly Russian. But it's a different tongue (and very interesting sense of humor). There is one famous folk music group from Slovakia on RUclips, I think they perform in that language.
ruclips.net/video/ZALtzTmPz-E/видео.html
Or just Rus', as a common pattern for all Easter Orthodox groups. We had White Rus', Black or Red etc. And yes, It transfers to modern Russia as well.
@@mourdebars yes, you're right. What I described was specifically Red Rus'. It is there that pierogi ruskie come from. So south-eastern Poland and western Ukraine. Black Rus' is in the Belarus-Lithuanian border, and White Rus' is a larger reagion from central Belarus to Smolensk. So some parts of Russia are in Rus' but Russia and Rus' are not synonymous, which is quite a common misconception.
@@mastercalabaster9824 wasnt that region called Galicja???
Sorry, but your comments sounds shallow and a little offending. Sadly, your country has long lasting tradition of toxic regimes and cruel colonial expansion and exploitation of other nations and it goes on. Poland was one of the victims. A Russian who is able to understand that will be always wellcomed. You don't like Warsaw? It's your right. But you should know, that apart from Hitler, Stalin is also responsible for destroying the city by waiting till Hiter's army devastate the city and kill 200 000 inhabitants during Warsaw Uprising. You are not responsible for that, but your attitude to your regimes counts, sorry. Forgive me for judging you too severely, because I know what kind of a country you live in.
Exactly 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Some Russians and Ukrainians don't know their history. They don't know what they did to the Circassians, Tatars, the Siberian Turkic people, or the Japanese people after WWII. They were sinking civilian evacuation ships for fun. Russian Far East is full of people with partial Ukrainian ancestry, because Ukrainians were the vanguards for Imperial Russian colonization...and now they're being sent to Ukraine to fight many Ukrainians who have partial Russian ancestry. The Ukrainian faction was a influential political force in Soviet Union after Stalin, yet Ukrainians now claim they were under Russian cultural and political occupation and play the victim card.
@@darbet6475From 1939 17 September Russian troops invade the Poland, they left 1993.More than half century. But this lady have bigger problem, they bank card didn't work...
@@Cezarygon These were Soviet troops, among whom were Ukrainians too, whom the Poles are now wholeheartedly helping. I am wondering, how it is possible that the Poles, who have been killed so much by the Ukrainians (see the video below), are now ready to go to war with the Russians, who, according to many American military analysts, have no interest in attacking Poland. Can you give me an answer?
ruclips.net/video/luFVfcW7yAE/видео.htmlsi=Qfmysav5Lhm1iKjX
"Please do not be offended, but I did not like your city at all" How do you expect people to react to such an observation? Why did you not like Warsaw? It has many beautiful baroque buildings; in fact is more similar to St. Petersburg than Moscow. BTW, if you did not like the city "at all" how is it possible that you had "a great time "over there? I am Italian and I know that there has been bad blood between the Poles and your people and I sympathize with Russia. Having said that and knowing quite well the history of both countries, WHY did you go there? It seems to me a stupid thing to do particularly when, at the end of the video, you advised your countrymen not to go to Poland, although you admitted you were NEVER treated badly. I am sorry, but your story DOES NOT make any sense and is full of holes.
Not liking something doesn’t need any justification and sympathising with Russia DOES NOT make any sense.
Q: "WHY did you go there? It seems to me a stupid thing to do particularly when, at the end of the video, you advised your countrymen not to go to Poland, although you admitted you were NEVER treated badly. I am sorry, but your story DOES NOT make any sense and is full of holes"
A: She was under impression, having no other choice, but to go there. See, she needed a US visa for family reasons.
US suspended all visa issuance in Russia, so Russians have to travel to an other country. She did not know, she could be (much) better off to travel to Belgrade, Serbia or to Ankara (Turkiye). The consular agreement between USA and Russia allows that. Instead, she felt being forced to travel to a country with 400+ years of political controversy. Little poor lady knew, the things are not as tough, as in imagination. And there is no need to travel to Warszawa if same thing can be done in Belgrade.
The same goes the "other" way and if you notice in the comments Polish people are split on the topic.
On my side I was never treated badly in Poland and the more I travel there, the more I like. I travel there very often because in order to reach Kaliningrad I have no choice, but transit through Poland. I did not feel any sympathy of Polish people towards my license plates (USA). Many are straight grimacing at them, sometimes even the border guards. When they learn that I am either Russian or Hungarian things improve dramatically.
So my experience with Poland: the least popular country is probably US of A. But it never goes really bad, just you feel the shoulders being turned and see the grimace. Remember: if I drive my car, the word "USA" is literally written on my forehead. Even if the things are a bit different.
I didn’t like it too. Sue me.
@@anata5127 You mean Warszawa, or USA (because I wrote about it)? I can't say much about Warszawa because I rarely, if ever transit through the capital.
Cities like Torun or Krakow are nice. Even a little town like Braniewo. As far as USA... the beauty is in the eye of beholder. We eventually left it, but once in a while we visit "our" country as tourists. We are much more often in Poland and Russia than in USA lately and don't regret it. But no way I would renounce my US citizenship ever.
Warsaw is very specific, it is not for everyone. She came here in the winter, and Warsaw is not nice in the winter. Secondly she came with a lot of preconceptions and thirdly she seems completely unapologetic/ignorant about her own country aggressions. Does she know what her country has to do with the way Warsaw looks like right now? Didn't think so.
Finland, Poland, Estonia, even Czechia we all did our homework when it comes to Russia. We are not delusional about it like Italians or Serbs.
cant wait for you to crawl back to Russia tbh. Would be awesome to see :D
@@urdnotwrex6969 ROTFL 🤣

Polish, Czech and Estonia are literally the dirt of europe. Know your place.
There are Serbs against Putin too, I hope the opposition in my country wins, I fully support Ukraine, and even though I have basic human empathy for Russian people who are also suffering due to the war, I am against Putin and his regime. Cheers. 🌸
A phobia is an unreasonable fear. Our attitude towards Russia and its government (and possibly 80% of its population who unfortunately supports war and Putin) is not unreasonable. They give us reasons.
That's exactly what I wanted to say.

No need to play Russian roulette like Zelensky, a drug addict.😢
There is a bigger picture as well. Maybe your reasons are justified. Maybe not. Maybe 80% of "us" (now wearing my Russian hat, not the American and not the Hungarian) do support what you say (I am carefully avoiding the word "war", notice that!). Or maybe not.
It is not that hard to figure out, one way or the other: more communication!
Besides, with more communication you would have more chance to convince "us" that "we" are dead wrong.
The opposite is also true: hell knows, maybe I convince you, that there is nothing better than Russia.
I, too, need one thing to do that: meet with you.
Now step back and decide for yourself: who did cut off all communication and make the travel for people as hard as possible both ways?
As far as I see: the sanctions (esp. the travel sanctions) are incredibly easy to break. I travel back and forth, have no or little restrictions and observe. The poor lady who made this clip was suffering merely due her inexperience, not because it is impossible.
You may remember the idiotic logic like "travel is luxury, why not prohibit Russians to travel?". Same logic was expressed multiple times by Zelensky himself and Ursula. (Do we "LOVE" them both!). Than the story behind the confiscation of cars. This is illegal, by the way.
If you go back you see the roots: the people around Victoria Nuland. She is the undersecretary of State and a known neo-con.
Why did Biden chose a hawkish neo-con to be his undersecretary of State escapes me. The rest of the story (Zelensky, Ursula, cars with Russian plates, partial suspension of Schengen, etc.) is just revolving around her. Luckily she will be gone soon (thanks to elections!) and let's see, maybe sound logic will prevail.
Anyway: without contacts, travel and trade on all levels people get isolated and going to be stewed in own pot. And guess what will happen on higher level: they of course still trade with Russia - on their own level, behind of curtains. See Estonia. Isn't it corruption? They can - but we can't?
What reasons? If you think that, you don't understand what is going on in Ukraine, don't know all facts behind it, and you only believe in antirussian propaganda. Of course we have difficult history with Russia and USSR (but as you may know, its authorities were not only Russians, but Ukrainians or Jews as well), but we also have difficult history with Germany, and yet, now we are in one alliance with them, and we trade with them. Things change, but polish russophobia is still cultivated.
@@NeoBTKare you like 15 or something? Lol😂
The so-called russophobia was amazing to see..
You almost couldn't walk on the street, without being hurled at with words and objects.
It must have been a living nightmare.
At several points, it almost seemed like you wouldn't make it out alive
The russophobia exists, DO NOT try to deny it. Only a moron brought up with US propaganda would believe that. The f... British Tennis Association banned Russian players from Wimbledon two years ago! I know Eastern European history VERY WELL and I know that most Poles dislike/hate the Russians. However, she is a liar who likes to present herself as a victim. In fact, she admitted she was NEVER treated badly.
you want to see actual Russophobia.... (as well as "Americanphobia", "Islamophobia", "Anti-Semitism", "Racism" (black people), anti-women, anti-children, etc.).... go on 9gag - it's there, you'll see plenty of it....
probably only 1% of the population, consisting of the basement dwelling cheeto dust neckbeard incels.... but still, it's certainly there -- try not to see it, there.... lol

Svetlana:
I hated Warsaw!
Also Svetlana:
Here's a long list of positive experiences where people treated me exceptionally well in Warsaw.
There's reason why Russia's neighbours don't like Russia. Everyone seems to understand it except for Russians. And it's not Russophobia. It's just a standard human respons to Russian behaviour. To put it simply - countries respect Russians exactly as much as Russians respect other countries. Especially the smaller ones.
Says an American. Please, take your bases out of my country. You are not respecting my country.

Sorry, but you're wrong about the barszcz. There always was barszcz and barszcz ukraiński here in Poland. Both soups are DIFFERENT. Normal barszcz (also called Polski or red one) is a soup based mostly on beet and its consistency is diluted to the point it's drinkable, while Ukrainian is something you probably know and think about your borschtsch HOWEVER it was called Ukrainian always since the ancient times here.

Instead of blaming us blame your own government. There is a reason for all this, relations with russia had gotten better for decades, then Putin ruined it in one single day, taking all that relations development down the drain.

Of course for russians who swallow russian propaganda all days it's difficult to comprehend that we Poles simply don't give a damn about russia. What we care about is peace in the region, and that's something that russian invaders try to destroy. We don't let them be so part of their propaganda targets Poland as this or that. Of course it is not true but some positive idiots will continue to spread nonsense russian narrative. Just like they did with that "brotherly nation of Ukraine". Complete nonsense.

I was working in Siberia in 2013. I had to leave when my visa expired and flew out of Surgut without my interpreter. Checking in turned into a big problem when you don’t speak the same language. The person behind me didn’t speak English but knew what I needed to do. He physically went with me upstairs to check my bag, got my stub then took me back to get my boarding pass. It is nice to get help from strangers when traveling in a foreign country.

Well, as a person that lives in Warsaw I can ask you that what did you expect? In our local media they often talk that Poland and the baltic republics are next in line for a Russian invasion after Ukraine.
She got exactly what she expected.
Same in Sweden, they've all gone batsh*t crazy over there.
Do your media tell you the reasons why Russia will attack Poland? Just please tell me the real reasons, not the abstract ones (Putin is angry, eats babies and wants to kill all Poles and other nonsense)
🙈🙈🙈 Don't believe the Hype!! Especially from westernized media Russia has made it clear they have Nooooo intentions of doing such a act ,but that they will only respond to any aggression or military actions towards them ,you know like sending troops from western countries into this crisis or firing artillery from these countries or planes flying from those bases to attack Russia ,and then if Russia responds they'll say ooo Russia attacked us SMH 🙈🙈 well yea your flying airplanes to attack them claiming it's Ukraine fighters that's a direct threat ppl with a half brain should know you need to take out the source of were the attacks are coming from them the western powers can get there world war they've been escalating and wanting to happen for a sick global agenda they have been implementing, Soo don't worry about Russia worry about our leaders and governments escalating things and deceiving and lying to the ppl saying Russia started this or did this so that now they can use the excuse to get directly involved which they are anyways they just don't tell you that at the moment .. 😑 have a nice day🙏
And you believe that ridiculous propaganda? Think logically…why would Russia want to invade Poland or the Baltics or anywhere else. They have more than enough resources and land to accommodate a 146 million people. All they’ve ever wanted to do since 1991 was to carry in trade and selling cheap gas to you . Now you’re paying four times the price and your economies are going down the toilet. Meanwhile you allow the US to use you in their proxy war against Russia while destroying Ukrainian generational youth in the process . Are you completely that stupid that you can’t see that?
Living here, not a Pole. Rather than writing that Poland is russophobic, when will be the time that Russia and Russians will learn from their enormous list of crimes they did abroad, Poland included?
Well, it's right to be uncomfortable. You should. Every Russian should.
Luckily you are too much ahead of most of your compatriots. Good to see there's a glimpse of hope
Maybe you should be punished as a polak toilet cleaner since you invaded Russia BEFORE they invaded poland
1st Russians never relocating to Poland unlike millions of Ukrainians , so here nothing to do with russian "crimes" and this is not russians who are famous for robbering around western countries / Germany , if you understand what I mean , if you speak about Putin's regime this is another thing , Putin and his supporters are actual criminals and 1st of all for Russians , meanwhile here is another important thing about Putin's "operation" in Ukraine : only 1 % of Russian population take a part in this, most of young or normal adult people resisting Putin's actions

1. 123 years of occupation 1795-1918, including murdering people, stealing their property, sending them to Siberia, pillaging and destroying, trying to destroy Polish language and culture and turn Poles into Russians.
2. Attempt to destroy Poland in 1920, attacking it with Red Army, pillaging, raping and murdering.
3. Persecuting all Poles living within Soviet borders, murdering, robbing Poles in Ukraine and Belarus.
4. Joint attack on Poland with your ally Nazi Germany on 1939, stabbing Poland in the back during the fight against Nazi aggression. Destruction of Polish culture and property, murder and deportation of Poles. Mass murder of thousands of Polish offers in Katyń, aimed at destruction of Polish elite.
5. Betrayal and destruction of Polish anti-Nazi resistance in 1944-45, including preventing any help from reaching the Warsaw Uprising, as well as betraying and arresting and murdering Polish resistance fighters who collaborated with Red Army in fight against the Nazis.
6. Military occupation of Poland in years 1945-1989, killing and imprisoning all opponents of Soviet rule, theft of innumerable treasures of culture and history, destruction of territories through which the Red Army went, mass rapes, mass pillages and murders.
7. Economic exploitation of Poland 1945-1989
8. Political leadership in communist repressions, which include murdering of striking workers and dissidents, as well as imprisoning of people.
9. Forcing Soviet inefficient and primitive economic and management system in Poland, which which lead to massive underdevelopment of our country, out of which we had to work extremely hard to dig out from 1989 onwards
10. No information provided about the nuclear disaster in Soviet Ukraine jn 1987, which caused massive risks for Polish population, in particular children.
Overall, you have occupied Poland for over 160 years, murdered millions of us, hurt and raped further millions. You attempted to destroy our language and culture and wipe out our nation, which is the definition of genocide. Thousands of stolen treasures of our culture are still in Russia and many more you have simply destroyed. Parts of Poland once under your occupation are still underdeveloped, your destruction went so deeply that it is taking very long time to remove all the scars and wounds.
Consider this - why do all the countries who have the most contact with Russia, dislike it the most? Perhaps the problem is your behaviour?
You are welcome.
They where not so enormous as elswhere that was ,,only deportatins off hundreds off People mostly polish people to gulags in Siberia and Kazakstan by soviet Moscow Russians and some western Ukrainians where they mostly survived but many around 100 000 died there in Siberia and Ural but this wasn ot saw enermouse at all because many other nationalities esepecialy in soviet union where targeted so and many Russian Ukrainians and Caucasus peple or Kazakh and Tatar people mch more by Soviet Union and German nazis and those Soviet crimes on Poles where not such enormouse in realithy you have right because many countries includindg Poland did many crimes and in breiter persectives many Poles where killed by nazi Germany on greather level and over 100000 Poles where klled by western Ukrainian ultanationalist in last years of ii warld war , but many recognise that the nationalithies in Soviet union including Don Cosacks where more targeted by German nazis and Soviet repressins than Poles where that is certenly true saw the soviet crimes and even the Geman crimes on Poles where not so enormouse as the German,Austrian nazi crimes on regular Soviet citizens or on the Jews or Gypsies.@@user-hc6vy2vm8y
this woman is so annoying
i know right
I liked her at one time, but the more I have seen of her, the more annoying she has become. It’s always a pity party for her.
So why are you here?😅
If you want to be taken seriously, don't use the word "russophobic", not even jokingly. It is used exclusively in Russian propaganda and heavily associated with it. Also, having negative opinion of Russia is not the same as having negative opinion of Russian people (ie. being "russophobic"!). So you are drawing wrong conclusions from the statistics you referred. That said, many Russians support their government's policies or feel indifferent about it, so it's not like "russophobia" is totally unfounded. Personally I have a slightly negative attitude towards any random Russian, until he/she proves my prejudices wrong. I wasn't always like this. I was totally neutral about Russians before the EXTRA SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION TURBO EDITION. Things changed..
Not sure what you expected from Polish people given the history between these two nations and how Russians treated Poles during / post-war times. You can have fun, party, drink with them but once you start discussing politics and history it may get ugly. Everyone is welcomed and people are friendly unless you start pushing your agenda. That was my impression when visiting Poland.
Also not sure what "feeling uncomfortable" means when, as you said, nothing happened. It was basically a scenario in your head.
Russia and Poland were part of the same nation for a very long time. They got along just fine. The Soviet Union/Bolsheviks were a multi-ethnic organization. There were Poles in that Soviet Hierarchy. In fact the founder of the NKVD was a Polish Nobleman by birth.

By definition phobia is an irrational, unrealistic and persistent anxiety disorder. By that definition Poland (and other neighbours) are NOT Russophobic - because their fears and anxieties are not unrealistic or irrational - rather they are rational and realistic given the historical and current behavior of Russia towards their neighbours. Why would you be surprised that Poles don't like Russians and you don't feel welcome? Face it, rightly or wrongly, fairly or unfairly - people express their views because in their minds you represent all that is bad about Russia.
Why then don’t you have a negative attitude towards the Germans if you write that our relationships are determined by history?
@@user-lp6yx7ml7h Maybe because Germany didn't attack anyone else after World War II. Besides, they are aware of what they did. They apologized.
@@Robert_z_Wwy We apologized for Katyn and the invasion of Poland. In Russia, Katyn was recognized as a war crime by the Soviet Union in 2010. The most interesting thing is that this was recognized even in the Soviet Union itself during the period of democratization of the regime in 1989, if I remember exactly.
@@user-lp6yx7ml7h IRONIC. After that you killed our president Lech Kaczynski, that was visiting for 70th Katyn anniversary and didnt give out the crashed plane for years. Fucking animals.
Fear? It's hatred and disgust rather XD
As Pole I'd say that Poland is rather Rusorealistic than Rusophobic. Our history with Russia is full of hostility, and the latest declarations of the Russian authorities are cause for concern due to the war of agression in Ukraine. I'm only talking about the context of international relations. When it comes to interpersonal relations, I wouldn't expect such antipathies, I personally know several Russians and I have a very good opinion of them, but it's probably because they emigrated to Poland as a sign of opposition to Putin's policies. I assume that Russians really can be good and intelligent people, it's just a pity that lately they have had so little opportunity to prove it. Really such a pity because I think that Russian culture has a lot to offer to the civilized world, I am personally a big fan of Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy.
👆🏻what they said….
tbf Poles are phobic to most other countries/cultures -💀. They can't get along with the Ukrainians who are suffering from war 💀💀
One thing one needs to know when interacting with people is that being nice doesn’t mean that person is kind. People can put up a front and be nice but in their heart they are not kind and caring. Big difference.
the turnout for Navalny's funeral is a good example of this. Hopefully most Russians do not support Putin, just like most Americans do not support Trump
I’m americanophobic I think
Russians can live in Poland too..I even know 1 or 2 and their Polish is not as good as mine but they manage. RUSSIA-phobic is not always RUSSIAN-phobic. If you need to ask why Poland dislikes Russia and some Russians, you're just being ignorant or uneducated on the matter. Poland stands for democracy and freedom compared to Russia, Russia stands for invading neighbours and subjugating them, end of story.
I live in Poland and have Ukrainian and Russian friends - I don't know anyone who is 'Russophobic'. Of course there are historical resentments and current fears of invasion but people know the difference between normal people and murderous dictators. Next time visit my home town Krakow.

It sounds like you were treated very well in Poland, and that the phobia may have come from within yourself. Not to be disrespectful to you. I am sure it is not easy to go places where you know it is true that people there have a negative opinion of your country. The Russian girl that cuts my hair was afraid to visit her hometown a few months back, out of her fear of what people there now think of Americans, so i can understand and respect your fesr.
Rusophobia is the best selling product of Kremlin.

I myself would love to get to know russia and its culture a lot more. But with Putin at the top, it'll be impossible.
Until recently - and maybe even now - visiting St. Petersburg did not require a visa for about 50+ nationalities. Impossibility is in your head.

Yes, constant Russophobic propaganda has nothing to do with it, clowns...
The name pierogi ruskie comes from the Red Ruthenia/Ruś Czerwona (now the territory of eastern Poland and western Ukraine). Some people started calling them Ukrainian. But it's silly because the name has nothing to do with Russia, if so we would call them pierogi rosyjskie😂😂😂
Lmao. Rossija is the way Greeks called Rus'. They just didn't have letter U, so they used O and added IA in the end like they did with any other countries name. "Ruthenia" is just Latin way of writing it. But as Russia now the same way Rus' back then was Orthodox State, that's why the Greek version of the name is used officially. Because Russians are not Catholics and never was. So stop using Latin name to support your western imperialist intentions.
Btw, since your ignorance is palpable I must add that rossijane is any citizens of Russia since it is multinational state. For the ethnic Russians term russkie are used. Which is exactly the same as you wrote it. So, you just proved the fact that Rus', and Russia is the same thing. Like if it wasn't obvious for someone.
Also it would be odd to call any food Rossijskaja. Imagine calling this way Chack-Chack or something like that.
@@Qvadratus. LOL I explained how we call that pierogi in Polish and you see Western imperialism xD
See, you couldn't avoid it even here. I blame western education. There was no reason to explain why Russian food is called Russian. @@lilauhewfnvuhnefhvne

If you studied Polish history from 1939 to 1990, you might find the answer to your concept of finding the Polish people "RUSSOPHOBIC".
I have polish friends here in Germany, a family! And once, when the war in 2022 started, i spoke with them a bit longer about it.
And i would like to add, that yes correctly, it’s a russophobia existing because of the long history, but even more, i think, many people define russophobia as a kind of hatred, but it’s not hatred, it’s really a pure feeling of fear, that they could be invaded…

But the more comedic thing to me is you watching a propagandist video about how russophobic is Poland (which even if it would be true, it has reasons to be true) and you bring up with polonophobic, hateful speech. GTFO hypocryte.
From my experience in Poland, everyone I met had normal attitudes toward Russians. I talked with a lot of people about so many things. The only European country I visited and found anti-Russian sentiments was in Hungary, many years ago. I met people there with very strong anti-Russian sentiments. They were also a little disappointed with the United States for not saving them, under Soviet domination. This is why the situation with Orban today is so counter-intuitive. I hear he was he used to be strongly anti-Russian himself and only changed in recent years after visiting Moscow and Beijing and then receiving Russian investment and gas supply. Hungarians are a unique people in Europe but their anger toward Russia stems from brutal suppression under Soviet domination. They told me that literally every Hungarian stood against them and Russia overwhelmed them with massive military force. They tell me Russia had listening posts and microphones hidden everywhere to catch and abduct Hungarians who said anything that did not like.
thats strange. i am from hungary and we all have high appreciation of russian people and culture. what you heard is probably a "fear" as a result of 1956.
As a Hungarian, I would say you are right. As other Central and Easter European nations, we had been oppressed by Russia for 45 years, so anti-Russian sentiment was exist 20-30 years ago, but it was not so strong. Orban had the sentiment change towards Russia. Because Russia is not a liberal country, it became idolized by far-rights. Hungary has become a very far-right country under Orban's regime. As a liberal Hungarian, I would say I Am not agaist Russians, I Am only agaist Putin, and his oppressive regime. I would like to see a free, and less chauvinistic Russia in the future. The avarege Russians do not understand Us, Europeans, They do not accept their historical responsibilities.
@@zsuzsannaivan5841Speak in your name! We from the liberal side, are agaist Putin's regime, but we are not agaist Russians, in general
@@andraskleistenes8586 Yeapp, i do speak in my name, based on experience of my friends from every side. I am also liberal, and i also even dont want to say anything about Putin, etc. I think russian mind is simply different than hungarian or european, and keeping together a huge continent-like country is a different task than keep entertained some hungarians and others who are enjoying their western life where the bigest problem is who is a man or a woman. Putin is wrong by OUR standards (probably...), but also 5billion people in the world is totally fed up with western colonialism and hypocracy. Easy trigger...

Ruskie pierogi means actually ruthenian. Some overzealous producers recently renamed them to ukrainian, which is idiotic. Just yesterday, while shopping, I saw these "Ukrainian" dumplings and I said: Oh, there are no Ruthenian dumplings, so thank you! Generally, I got the impression that you consider Poles to be russophobic based on official statistics, without having encountered any manifestations of hostility towards Russians. The behavior of hotel staff in Warsaw probably corresponds to the behavior of staff in Moscow hotels towards Russians from Zamkadye.

It IS true that Russians are often perceived in a negative manner. Mostly in western Europe. In slavic countries of Eastern and Southern Europe, even if there are strong anti-Russian beliefs in a lot of the population, there is more of a cultural bond, so it is easier to bypass the political aspect.

You don't mention the deportations in the 1940s or the executions by the Soviets before and after German/Romanian occupation, after the Soviets finally succeeded in incorporating Moldova In 1946-1947, at least 216,000 deaths and about 350,000 cases of dystrophy were accounted by historians in the Moldavian SSR alone. In 1944-53, there were several anti-Soviet resistance groups in Moldova; however the NKVD and later MGB managed to eventually arrest, execute or deport their members. Of course everything was lovely in Moldova as the Soviets imported thousands of Russians into parts of Moldova and of course once the Soviet Empire broke up wasn't there a nasty little war where now rhere is a Russian puppet of Transnistria. Thank you for your insight but I doubt you can speak for Eastern Europe either. I have used copy and paste as my typing very slow.
@@EpizodBG Putin providing cheap resources, no they were supplied at market prices. You fail to mention that he invaded Ukraine and Europe has weaned itself of his "Cheap resources". As far as Bulgaria is concerned I am sure they became Independent of Russia when the Soviet Empire went down. Over the years from 1912 (The first Balkan War) Bulgaria has been sliced and diced. The Soviets did presumably build all those dams but at what cost to the population, I note that some hundreds of thousands of ethnic Turks were kicked or left in 1980s. As above when Bulgaria had the chance they rejected the Soviets and became Independent. It is now a member of the EU and NATO. I forgot the mention the various executions by the NKVD after 1944.
@@phann860 The resources that Putin provided were at a very low price. And this was very clearly seen when they stopped, Europe went into recession and Germany began to de-industrialize.
We did not "become independent" when USSR fell, our sovereignty was limited yes, but the ties with the West were never interrupted, and we determined the internal policy! Now we have Zero sovereignty, everything is decided in the american embassy, even the ruling cabinet is appointed there!
We have been sliced and diced by the Western countries!
Everything was built in the name of the people, so that we have water, that we have electricity, that we have roads, because before that we had 'almost nothing!
When the turks began to 'raise their heads' for secession of territories, the borders were open and anyone who wanted could move to Turkey. But when they saw how badly they were treated by their 'brothers in blood' many turks returned back home.
As above, we have not rejected the Soviets, in fact at the first "pro-democracy" protests, people wanted more socialism.
Now we are members of NATO and the EU, but no one askd us if we wanted it or not, there was no referendum!
I don't know what these "executions by the NKVD" are, maybe you mean the so called People's Court, which was held at the insistence of America and UK. The same courts existed in all countries occupied be Germany during WWII!
I often truly enjoy watching your videos as you travel from either within Russia or other countries. They generally are uplifting, informative and positive.
I found this video to be unfortunate in its thumbnail description as after watching it twice, you clearly had a positive experience traveling there in Poland or specifically in Warsaw.
In this video you actually did not encounter any polish or Ukrainian citizens that were angry or agitated with you in being a Russian citizen. In fact it was the opposite, people there were friendly and magnanimous in their interactions with you…no negativity or nastiness. Yes, there are often arrogant people we all encounter on any given day in this world as you point out either in Warsaw or Moscow too!
I believe that you may have been tired or jet lagged in running around and having unfortunately forfeited non-refundable money whether it be for airlines or hotels reservations. Things like this happen from time to time and we travelers need to accept these occasions at time and keep moving forward. By the way, I never fear once for you being completely without financial resources as your fiancée will of course always have you back just as I do for my fiancée who lives in Brazil. She has nothing to fear financially speaking as I’m a phone call away from her!
I would suggest that sometime in the future when you’re rested and relaxed that you rewatch this video with open minded thoughtfulness. I believe that you will find that your own internalized perspective has possibly colored your outlook of Poland and in particular while visiting Warsaw. Remember these initial feelings you had were internalized and possibly based on your own expectations or predetermined beliefs or thinking in traveling to Poland.
I only heard that you encountered generally happy, warm and welcoming people either polish or Ukrainian who treated you with respect, kindness and in a hospitable manner. Your presentation in this video clearly shows this. How about the kindness of the two men who gifted you with a cheesecake…such a wonderful gesture and surprise to you!
Finally, you did accomplish your mission in securing your fiancée visa…congratulations! I think if I had to make the “very circuitous trip” that you did to travel from St. Petersburg to Warsaw I would likely be a bit tired, with frayed internal feelings or emotions too! I believe that everyday Polish or Ukrainians citizens don’t hate Russians…they more than likely hate Putin, the Russian government and its military.
Safe travels to you! 😊
GREAT COMMENT!!!
@@LynetteA68 thank you Lynette! ☺️
Well written. Agree with your impressions 100%
As always, the very tricky division is "we love Russians, but we hate the government." Russian government represents the interests of Russian people, therefore you hate Russian people, be honest)

When it comes to the name "ruskie pierogi", even Poles talk nonsense. "Ruskie" does not mean "Russian", but Ruthenian. Ruś or Ruthenia is divided into white (today's Belarus) and red (today's Ukraine). For centuries, Ruthenia, as part of the Lithuanian duchy, was part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Yeah, I about fell off my chair when I first read some restaurant(s) did that in '22 or '23! Such an embarrassing lack of knowledge (seasoned with no common sense)! [EDIT: I mean the ostentatious dropping of the name in some restaurant(s) that was reported.]
For any foreigners here, the adjective "ruski" also depicts anything Russian in informal Polish (as opposed to the formal "rosyjski"), much like "Russkie" has been used in informal English. It's been so for at least few tens of years (I'm not knowledgeable of the exact timelines here) with the formal and basic meaning of the adjective "ruski" still pertaining to all things Ruthenian (as in the Rus') though. That must've confused the restaurateur(s) but is not a mitigating factor at all.
The claim that Moscow principality aren't Russian principality is Ukranian fake. Ruskie = Russian. Otherwise they would be called Ruthenian.
What an adventure! Thanks for sharing.
17:50 about Pierogi. I don't know if you were ever been into a "Bar Mleczny" but since the arrival of refugees most of the cooks I saw were ukranian women, so the pierogi were different than used to just two years ago, now are bigger and "ukranian style".
Also, there are "Russ Pierogies " not Russian (nothing to do with Moscow )- but come from "Red Russ" after added to Poland, by "Kazimierz the Great" today Volhyn/Lwow regions. So definitely more connected with Ukraine.
It's called "ruskie pierogi"another one it's "salatka ruska", not big deal for me. My favourite are pierogi z kapusta, delicious with a cup of barcz@@JacekBoczarski-qo7xe
@@BurninVinyl "salatka ruska" is not the proper salad, I guess. We never call it that way. The original recipe is lost forever.
@@GeorgeGy really? I mean the one with mayonnaise, boiled peeled potatoes and carrots, green peas, some black pepper & salt, some vinegar and small fermented pickles. Some add also ham (prosciutto) or smoked salmon.
@@BurninVinyl Exactly. Not even ingredients are 100% correct. You do not need vinegar. Carrots are debatable, but OK. You will need boiled eggs and some sort of meat. And fresh cucumbers as well. The bastardized "Olivier" (this is how it is called in Russia) needs some sort of sausage, but people strongly prefer chicken meat. Than it is called "Stolichny" salad. I may try salmon next time, but first time heard about it.
Vinegar is never used. The quality of mayo is very important. Ideally one should make it at home. If not, buy French or from former USSR. A random from grocery store (outside of France or former USSR) won't do any good.
I live in Paris. Have lived here in France for decades. Stay out of the 18th, 19th and 20th arrondissements in Paris These are the northern districts and don't talk to anybody that just comes up to you off the street. Keep your valuables tightly secured. No phone put on the table. So much theft here. And you have to say Bonjour not hello every time you enter an establishment or they lose their minds. if you talk about arrogant Polish, wait till you get to Paris. Be careful as there may be men trying to engage you in conversation. Don't fall for it. Be safe! Paris is not what it once was.
I gave up to see Paris as it was. It is your choice though. Thank you for the warning.
Dear honoreboule People from former Soviet Union .Poland is not the only and the most russophobic country in the warld most russphobic people are now in Western Parts off Ukraine and Lithuania or Estonia or maybe Latvia..
i wonder why
I know exactly what you mean about gluten. I am full-on celiac and traveling is so incredibly difficult. One must eat. But it's a minefield away from my own kitchen.
I'm glad you found people who understand we're all just human beings.
Be safe and be well.
I love Warsaw, but of course better in the summer.
Being against russian fascism and everlasting russian imperialism is not 'russophobic'.
👍
Boy she has that look.
Ruskie pierogi are not name after Russia, but after Ruś.
I was very lucky to be born in Western Europe (Belgium) but I remember the cold war (I'm 65 now) and I understand very well the reaction of central and eastern european countries who had to live under the joke of the USSR. With the current situation it is even strange that Russians are allowed to travel in EU countries, because of the hybrid war of Russia against the West, including spying, cyber attacks and disinformation.
@@blick131 Get lost russian troll!
Yes, absolutely. They really should have a ban in the EU.
U just described the West's tactics. Russia's way has always been straighforward.
It seems to me that a significant part of my compatriots do not display Russophobic attitudes against Russians themselves, including those who live in Poland (though of course there will always be one or another asshole nationalist or racist). But a significant number of my compatriots are also allergic to Russia as a state - authoritarian, not honoring treaties, aggressive and defiant, and at the same time remaining outside the norms of basic civilizational comforts for its citizens. So is Poland Russophobic? Yes, Russophobic towards Putin's Russia, just as it was Russophobic towards the Tsars and Bolsheviks who oppressed us.
I am Polish and don't consider myself as Rusophobic but if you wanna call me that way it's fine with me. Honestly I don't give a shit what you think about me 😀.
You are simply zombified by propaganda about Russia and that’s all
Why are writing then?! For fame?!😅

Québec's national dish is literally called, "poutine." There was talk of changing the name to "Zelensky" (I'm not joking) but then people said, let him (V. Putin) change his name, not our famous dish LOL. I also think people would have had a hard time spelling it... I really enjoyed you telling of your encounters. 👍
I refuse to call "pierogi ruskie" as pierogi "ukraińskie". It's a traditional Polish dish coming from a region in first Polish republic called "województwo ruskie". It has nothing to do with Moscow's Russia.
I am often in the car line between Poland and Russia, on the "noman's land". There are usually Russians living in Europe, sometimes people from Belarus and Ukraine. After few minutes political disputes start. Names like Zelensky or Putin rarely if ever mentioned.
Instead, everyone is talking about Ursula and Orbán. There is something special about them, I guess.
Surprise Surprise. The violin strings are out in full harmony.
There is a good reason why the Polish people may not necessarily like Russia. The times under Russian influence were absolutely terrible and right after WW2 the Russian soldiers committed so many atrocities not only in Poland but also in East Germany were almost all women were raped. They don't teach you that in school, do they? I would say normal and civilized Russian people are welcome in Poland. Unfortunately, after watching hundreds of videos on the russian 1420 Channel on YT, I now understand that those people are a small minority. Free Poland is developing quickly and becoming a prosperous society, no wonder they don't want to have anything to do with Russia.
after WW2 Poland got a good chunk of German land, which I think Poland should return because it got it from You Know Who.
@@komandagleby_GB Bigger chunk was stolen from Poland by the Soviets, the infamous liberators.
@@ProblemSolverUS Thank you for the comment. My understanding is that you do not admit the Curzon line. In any case, it would be more honest first to return the land to Germans, and then claim the rest from Russians - actually from Ukrainians.

Why we should like Russia maybe because of Katyn, maybe for sending Poles to Syberia or maybe for being under Russia influance till 1989 and finally maybe we should love them for invading Ukraine. Still I no wonder why we are against Russia.
Katyn killings was ordered by Georgian Stalin. Who was a brutal dictator. Not to mention that was the Soviet Union, which Ukraine was also part of. Should you fear Ukraine because of that??
@@Michael-it6gbStandard bla-bla lies. Stalin rules from Moscow like a tzar, the same way like ruled (german) Catherine 150 years before. Russians can ignore nacionality of its tzar, but he have to act like russian.

@@Michael-it6gbStalin didn't care about Georgia. He culturally was much more Russian.

Thank you for video. I would like to hear how you manage to go from Russia into Poland and back to Russia if there is no direct flights. Is there nato nations that are flying to Russia??
Of course. Turkey, for one.
There are many channels on RUclips where Australians, Germans, and US citizens move to live in Russia with their families. You can ask them how they arrive. www.youtube.com/@RussianHomesteadFamily
@@asknight only Turkey....
she said Warsaw to Athens, Greece to Yerevan, Armenia to Moscow
I experimented with that (and with no risk for me). There is a transit agreement between Russia and Lithuania: Lithuania MUST allow Russians transit from Kaliningrad to Moscow. If one has a car: no problem. The car navigation system is... going to be "damaged" and you land up crossing the Suwalki gap "by accident". To make sure, I asked Polish police, what would they do if my car would have Russian plates. "As long as you have Schengen visa: nothing, you will be fine". Read the fine print: Poland does not allow Russians to enter from Kaliningrad DIRECTLY (and here we have one little funny thing: they prohibit American citizens without possibility to review the decision, but the Russian citizens can appeal to the most senior border guard of the shift. I know that precisely because we made even more experiments). Anyway, this entire thing is as insane as possible and with little diligence easy to break.
But 99% of the Russians are afraid and can't read English between the line. And even if they would, they have no courage to confront the Polish or Lithuanian authorities directly. But having an American and a EU passport in the pocket helps!
Very happy for you. Congrats on the visa!!! On your way to the USA. As far as future videos, my hope is you keep making videos once you arrive in the USA. It would be interesting to get your perspective on American culture. Please stay safe and enjoy Paris. Bon Voyage.
American media has prob inciting the most hatred towards Russia that any other country, especially in the cities run by democrats, marxists and socialists.
Videos about what ...US ??? Why ? Anyway , she will have probably a different life and priorities .
Please be careful in the US. Crime is on the increase here especially with all of the illegals running around commiting crimes. District Attorneys are not processing what were once crimes so it is on a rampage. Again please be aware of your surroundings.
Watch your six, US is high crime
She will NOT make it and if she gets there she will fail.
You are welcome without tanks and bombs. Grow up. Peace is wonderfull. Democracy, too.
Exactly.
Well said
If so, then disband NATO and there will be no tanks. But no, you aim missiles at our cities and did it before Ukraine. You surround our country and did it before Ukraine. All those actions that happen are caused by your actions. You threaten the safety of our children and expect us to leave it just like that. No, we won't leave it. And your children will not live in safety.
Yeah, right. Democracy.
You can't touch it, neither taste it.
And there's no signs of it in Poland. And I bet you won't even be able to formulate what this word means and how its general definition applies to Poland in current day. And yet - for you it's wonderful.
Did this lady have tanks and bombs in her backback? What are you talking about?
Dear Svetlana.
I have the impression that you brought your belief about Poland as the most Russophobic country in the world from Russia. There's nothing we can do about it in Poland, although you can be sure that if you come to Poland again she will be safe. We in Poland have no problem with the Russians, we just don't understand why you attack "friendly" nations. If Russian soldiers, who are Russians after all,
they would behave towards Ukrainians as you do at the airport in Warsaw, I think you could get an American visa in St. Petersburg, and your bank cards would work throughout Europe. Judge for yourself whether I am a Russophobe - I am sure of one thing - I am Polish.
Superb, informative, interesting video. Particularly liked the views from the jet’s window when leaving Warsaw at night.
You spread joy to people’s lives. 🥇
When I was in Moscow, I felt as I"m in polonophobic city. Or maybe country will sound better. Because when I want to buy a drink in one of the biggest shopping centre "Dietskij Mir". It takes me 1 hour.
The lady who was selling drinks didn't have change. So first I need to go to buy something I didn't need somewhere else. Everywhere was full of people waiting in line. So this is why it took so long time. It was was very hot day in the middle of july.
Yeah, the Polishphobia is so common in Russia. This is where the Russians' idea of 'Russophobia in Poland' comes from. Your story is inspiring. 👍😂
The same story in Walmart, and you end up with sheeit drink.
One version of Barszcz in Poland was always Ukrainian. We never called it Russian.
Ruthenian or Ukrinian but not Russian
@@dpwXXIPolskaPolak i never heard "barszcz ruski" pierogi obviously but not barszcz
Pierogi RUSKIE the name does not come from Russia. There was a Ruskie Voivodeship in Poland before World War II. And it was the Poles living in those areas who made such dumplings. And when Poland's border was changed after World War II, Poles from the Ruskie Voivodeship were forced to leave this territory, also because of the Volhynian massacre, and they are now throughout Poland. Thats it.
Hmmm, Swieta, it's as if you're a bit disappointed not to have experienced any noteworthy instances of blunt Russophobia in our country.
To put it briefly (as there are many angles and lots of stuff to this topic): why would a guest (visitor) who is a regular individual, friendly (or minding their own business at the very least) and not causing any troubles bother us? Why should we be inhospitable by default? We're not like that. Also, good looks translate well in every country (😉) and your cheesecake story confirms that.
Warsaw is a whole another animal (as in prettier) when it all gets full green in mid-spring and stays so during summer. And it offers lots of things for just about anyone, be it leisure, all sorts of activities, cultural events or shopping.
If you’re into medieval stuff (as in late-medieval architecture and likewise-themed museums) then Toruń is the place to hit on your way from Warsaw to Trójmiasto (or the Tri-City: Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia). The Old and New Towns of Toruń are remarkable.
If you’re a skier the place to go in winter is our part of the Tatras. The added bonus is that you can enjoy the folklore of our highlanders (or the „Górale”) there.
If you and your posse can sail, you may be interested in visiting the Mazury region (or Masuria) in summer: you can rent a sailboat and sail the interconnected lakes there for a few days. In addition to having good time and getting a nice tan you’ll enjoy some gorgeous scenery there (it’s a heavily forested and non-industrialized area).
Of course, Russia is the most wonderful country in the world. Peaceful and loving. They never had to invade anyone because all of the neighboring countries just beg Russia if they could become part of Russia.
I like your sarcasm!
Yes, Krakow is much nicer. Also St. Petersburg is the nicest city in Russia and probably close to the same level as Vienna or Prague.
I spent time Krakow and Warsaw a little over a month ago. Beautiful cities.
Hi Svetlana, I’m so excited for what is to come after getting your USA Visa. Hopefully you will bring us along in your journey 😍
Ok, after reading some comments, i wanna write my own post…about my opinion!
Many Russians, and for sure also other people in the world, but especially Russians, do have very often a completely wrong definition of special words! I noticed this on my frequent travels there…
Sometimes i felt, like for them black is white etc…
But especially here we speak about Russophobia! And this doesn’t mean “hatred” (i do not hate spiders, but i have arachnophobia!)! So, many polish people really have lots of FEAR, they feel frightened and it’s more than logic, knowing their history! Therefore it’s important to know and to understand the differences. Phobia is an extreme fear…
I don't understand how a Russian can get a visa for countries in the EU. As long as Putin is in power, such should not be issued. Slava Ukraini!
