Gabrielius Landsbergis:

"The current geopolitical moment is often compared to #Chamberlain’s betrayal of Czechoslovakia in 1938. But there is another point in history that could be used as an example...

In 1944, #Stalin, sensing victory approaching, demanded that part of #Poland be recognised by the Allies as part of the #SovietUnion. Instead of rejecting the demands, the Allies ultimately put pressure on the Poles to accept Stalin’s redrawn borders. Sounds familiar"
