Hi Rob, i'm polish. Answering your question form 13:18. From our perspective, safety of your independence and self-determination does not have a price. History has thought us that. Most of Europe doesn't need a big active military, so it's stupid to pump money in it. We do, we have Russia for a neigbour. Most of the west can't understand what that means, and just look at Ukraine. When or if Russia starts something in the future, we want to be ready. Sure, we're in NATO but if shit hits the fan we will have to rely on our selfs until any help will come from our allies. And that is another issue. We were left behind at the start of WW2, and sold for peace at the end of it. Those who do not lern form history, are bound to repeat it.
Ukraina oddała atom za gwarancję nienaruszalności granic. Kilka państw się pod tym podpisało... i co? Co te państwa robią? Jedno napadło, kilka zaczęło pomagać, ale mniej niż Polska, która się pod niczym nie podpisała. A może NATO pomoże nam jakąś małą ilością broni i amunicji po utracie Białegostoku, Lublina, Zamościa, Rzeszowa? Z WB i Francją już kiedyś byliśmy dogadani. A może nie byliśmy? Może teraz też nie jesteśmy? Może lepiej nie dać wejść Moskalom do naszych miast, zamiast po 5 latach wojny te miasta w ruinie odbijać przy stratach 5 do 1?
And also, I read tons of comments under videos like this one, and a lot of poles living in UK said that they are moving not because of Brexit, but because of financial stability. A lot of them said that Brexit wasnt the main reason. Almost all of them said its all about money and safety.
The video doesn't touch on one subject the geopolitical position of Poland which lies in the centre of Europe, this can create wealth in times of peace and countless of problems in times of war.
Poland is getting better place to live, but the way I see the innovations are leaving abroad, politicians are slowing key investments, EU is leading us into madness. It's not like we progress much. We just don't fall as fast as others... edit: 14:22 actually we have few really top of the line military products. Check BWP Borsuk, SPH Krab, maybe Grot rifle. It's true we buy military equipment from South Korea and US, but some things are hard to develop when you have long history of being under soviet boot
Regarding 13:18, there are certain things that are a necessity when you border Russia. We've been optimistic before, we had allies before, and we all know how this turned out.
Koreans are hard working ppl too as we poles. After Russia attacked Ukraine we went offshore to nation capable to deliver in short notice, cos NATO couldn't
Dokładnie. Trzeba się samemu zbroić, bo NATO nam pomoże, ale nie wiadomo jak i nie wiadomo kiedy. Są nawet śmiałkowie na wszystkich poziomach społecznych, którzy twierdzą, że NATO, a w zasadzie politycy poszczególnych państw, mogą odroczyć pomoc, zmniejszyć, blokować, przekładać, szukać wyimaginowanej winy Polski - "nie będziemy umierać za jakiś tam Gdańsk".
Rob, the military build-up is also helping the economy, it's tech acquisition to build some of the equipment in the country, this generates job, revenue and might allow developing better tech because you have home-grown industry. And defence sector jobs are well paid jobs too. There is an equilibrium and as long as don't spend too much on the defence at a cost of other sectors this isn't too bad. Having said that Poland does not have a choice, we know very well our history and the eastern neighbour is still having genocidal, imperialistic ambitions. Living in the UK I agree Brexit was the most stupid decision that was made. EU maybe is not ideal or perfect, but definitely it helps to be together because we can help each other.
Poland deserves to be booming. And also deserve peace and safety, after all this shit what this country went through. I was born in Poland in the 50s . And to ducking bad I will never see Poland again. Wish the young generations all the best
I remember those unfinished buildings. Sometimes building materials (wiring, huge concrete plates, etc...) were left on site, degrading over time. Underground corridors formed by huge concrete slabs half-buried in the ground, a pile of bricks several meters high, a three-story abandoned building in a raw state without walls, where in the basement you could find condoms, needles and bags of glue... all this served as a playground for us (children). The change wasn't easy but we're getting there. A good movie showing those changes and post communist Poland is "Pieniądze to nie wszystko" ("Money isn't everything"). Funny comedy, I highly recommend it.
Dear Rob, you say "Warszawa" with the Czech/Kashubian stress without knowing it. 😂 In Polish, the second a musst be stressed, not the first one. Greetings from Toruń!
Poland is Western Europe in terms of culture. It used to be Eastern Europe in the geopolitical sense. Geographically it is Central Europe. It is even Northern Europe when it comes to climate.
Hello, you don't understand the situation of our Poles, our families were murdered and our properties were stolen, our free generation won with the blood of our ancestors, see the statistics of the hours we work and additional work. and we want to live with dignity
Military spending indeed could be taxing on the budget, but if you structure it correctly with offsets, as well as boost to our ND, then could actually be a positive thing. With Polish history, it’s certainly the right thing to do. Nobody attacks somebody who is stronger than them.
It is cheaper to protect the borders with army and navy than to let the enemies in. The losses during the so-called Swedish Deluge in the XVII century or during the Second World War were much higher than the possible expenditures for army and navy. I agree that buying military equipment abroad is a cost, not an investment. But it is like expensive insurance.
About military build up - others provided great points, but one is very important and actually answers your question. If you have strong military in todays world, big companies will feel safer investing more, bc their money will be protected. So for us, being as a front state of NATO, investing in military can be economically efficient. Why would Microsoft, Google etc. invest in a country, that could be invaded by Russia in 10 years? Well, knowing that the country is serious about defending, it is more logical to invest long term. Thats also the reason why we must develop the strongest ground forces in EU.
Say "warszAwa" ("it's LeviOHsa, not levioSAH 😂😂). Sorry, it's not important (and you're the best for actually saying the Polish version) but your "Wrocław" is just SO perfect, I want you to do more perfection like this 😂😂😂
I must agree. You say "Warszawa" with the Czech/Kashubian stress without knowing it. 😂 In Polish, the second a musst be stressed, not the first one. Greetings from Toruń!
We might be still poor compared to western countries but we made a huge progress. Our GDP since 2008 raised 57%. Italy, France, Spain after 15 years are poorer. Greece is 15% poorer than 15 years ago.
It is better to be a capitalist and stay in the pockets of another country than to be a communist and a slave. Capitalist = also be a slave, but in politics, not in personal matters. One thing that capitalism brings us is to be a slave in the bank :) But we have a better life than working for free (communist work). In short, capitalism grows and takes what it can take, while communism provides us all with a job, and takes away everything we get...(Got)
one thing that constantly ticked me off in that video is that they kept calling poland "eastern europe" in reality, poland is central european, alongside the rest of v4, germany, austria and switzerland (some people also count slovenia)
@@RobReacts1Poland is at the same time Central, Eastern, Northern and Western Europe. It depends on what you refer to. The only thing Poland is not is Southern Europe.
1990 - GDP ~$60 bilion, 2024 - ~$900 bilion. And, it`s possible that we`ll catch up with Germany in 2035+, and possibly join G20 ~2028-2032 Its like - wow for me, impressive. Hehehhe- Albania ; ) Yeah... word biggest comunism. Mhm we called ourselves - blacks of Europe in 2000`s, murzyni europy. Don't overestimate the EU funding, it's only 100 billion euros and it's basically a loan. The EU has accelerated growth of PL by 20%, that's all.
You know what else we have in common with China? The approach to work. We work hard. We do impossible things immediately for miracles we need three days. Apparently the approach we have in implementing projects from the EU. I work on such ones myself. We often get partners from other countries. Already at the beginning of the journey, our foreign partners point out problems instead of focusing on solving them. How many such ‘invented’ problems have we passed over in silence or solved beyond the partners' knowledge? :> The project is completed, the documentation is in order, the project is settled, everyone has benefited and everyone is happy :D
ohh grew up Rob big funds are in play here mixed with politics - this is same as everywhere. EU is not democratic entity. It is governed by bureaucrats and EP is only facade having limited power over EC. The whole story of Poland being undemocratic is EU pressing Poland to change government to more western friendly. KLD (first Tusk party) was established by German funds to "enrich" Polish politic scene like SLD was established from Russian funds at the begging of 90's.
Someone here has already told you that we don't need weapons to conquer other countries. We don't want to fall under Russian rule again. At the beginning of the 18th century, we were dependent on Russia in various ways. Small exceptions are 1918-1939 and the years after 1989. We not only value our independence, we actually love it. Whenever we were free from Russian influence, we developed, and when they ruled here, they used all our potential to create their power. To end the political thread, I will tell you about Putin's serious mistake. By attacking Ukraine, he accelerated the completion of the creation of the modern Ukrainian nation. And the second one is that it accelerated the Polish-Ukrainian reconciliation. It is true that this process has been going on for 30 years, but I think it would take another generation and this process may be over. Polish-Ukrainian history is complicated and there were many disputes and wars between us, but both sides were aware that we were doomed to cooperate. This process is ending in my lifetime, which makes me happy, but for Imperial Russia it is not good news. For the imperial and democratic Russia (if such a Russia is ever created), this has no negative significance. And finally, I will tell you what is worth seeing in Poland, apart from the places you mentioned, next to Toruń, Bydgoszcz, in the west of Poland, Szczecin, a city that has an unusual urban layout compared to other Polish cities, but thanks to this it is a very green city. Szczecin has always been out of the way, but now it benefits from its proximity to Germany and is developing thanks to its location. In the east of Poland, I recommend Przemyśl, Rzeszów, Krosno and the Bieszczady Mountains. When you are in Lublin, there are many interesting towns there. Beautiful Renaissance Zamość, picturesque little Kazimierz Dolny, Nałęczów and many others. Białystok, in the north-east, is interesting because there are not many cities, but there is beautiful nature. There are four National Parks in the vicinity of Białystok, including the most important and oldest one, the Białowieża National Park. The last natural forest in Europe. And the north of Poland, Warmia and Mazury, the land of lakes. I wish you successful trips to Poland. I promise that now I will listen to you more carefully and I will not make such mistakes as I did when commenting on your trip to Poznań.
This film did not mention that in 1989 the Polish economy was in a much worse situation than the Hungarian, Czechoslovak and East German economies. We were a little poorer than Ukrainians and Belarusians then. And then everything took off and Poland started to develop incredibly quickly. We are not the only ones who need the EU and NATO. If Ukraine were in the EU and NATO, there would be no war there now. When it comes to online hate against Tusk, it resembles Russian trolling. Tusk makes mistakes, like every politician, Tusk is not perfect, like every person, but the change of power brought benefits to Poland. We have returned to Europe politically, mentally and culturally. And we can also give something to Europe, because we have our own perception of some issues and slightly different experiences. Investments in the army are rational, taking into account what Russia is doing and the direction the world is heading. To sum up: the Third Polish Republic (Commonwealth of Poland) is the best Polish state that has ever existed.
Do they still think this way about Poland? And I thought that the entire British proletariat had already held a stagg party in Krakow... So we need to prepare for the next wave? Sad.
Poland is Western Europe in terms of culture. It used to be Eastern Europe in the geopolitical sense. Geographically it is Central Europe. It is even Northern Europe when it comes to climate.
Germans will never let that happen, no chance. They are doing everything in their power to make Poland their colony yet again. They had tried countless times in the past (ever since Poland came into being in X century). They slightly changed the tactic last 30-40 yrs or so but overall goal remains exactly the same. We actually already are a german colony 🤷🏻♂️
Rob. We are spending money on the military, because we have enemies close to our borders. We have even many proverbs for that state. F.e. "Mądry Polak po szkodzie" - a wise Pole after the damage, "Nie skleisz rozbitego jajka" - you can't glue a broken egg together. In history, we have already been Europe's buffer twice. Likely, a large part of Europe could already have found itself under the thumb of communism in 1920. We do not want a repeat, so we must have a strong army even if it does not favor the state budget. But in this topic you are slightly wrong because currently we have our own arms industry at a high level and we also sell our weapons. Even to South Korea. That's a fact. F.e. and that's not all - During the KADEX 2024 trade fair (Korea Army International Defense Industry Exhibition), the Polish company Grupa WB signed an agreement with the South Korean Defense Procurement Program Administration (DAPA) for the delivery of approximately 200 Warmate-3 drones in combat and training versions.
I live in UK 20 years, brexit was a worst choice for that country, main reasons were...no more people coming from europe to still british jobs, brexit done, borders closed for europeans, now africans coming 😆😆🤣🤣

F.e. and that's not all - During the KADEX 2024 trade fair (Korea Army International Defense Industry Exhibition), the Polish company Grupa WB signed an agreement with the South Korean Defense Procurement Program Administration (DAPA) for the delivery of approximately 200 Warmate-3 drones in combat and training versions.
The point is, that Poland is creaiting biggest military in Europe, but there is no game changer, example atomic weapon. 🫣
Most of people who came to UK was low educated so there won't be much benefit when they come back.
I live in UK 20 years, brexit was a worst choice for that country, main reasons were...no more people coming from europe to still british jobs, brexit done, borders closed for europeans, now africans coming 😆😆🤣🤣
