They should have sunk the Baltic Fleet. Pole about missiles from Russia

The case when a rocket in Poland made me enter into a conversation with a taxi driver.

Maybe because it was the first Pole in two years, and not from Myrhorod or Terebovlya.

He was twenty years old, but listened to the radio very attentively:

- And what do you think?

- And what do you think?

- I think that Europe will give Ukraine a little more money.

- Should it be different?

- They should have sunk the Baltic Fleet.

- But do you understand that this is a war? And for Poland as well. Is it worth going that far?

- Please, sir, we are there. Do you know what kind of square this is?

- Yes, of course, I read "Schindler's List", saw the movie, The Girl in the Red Cloak. We are now on Bogaterów Square (the Heroes square - ed.).

- Well, please, sir, that train will come for all of us, so it's better to do it sooner, while we still have the strength.

Nice talk, right? Too much. In life, the ending is not like that.

Please, sir, that train will come for all of us, so it's better sooner, while we still have the strength

It was the same here: I went to Bogaterów Square for a reason, to a Ukrainian store on Solyania.

And there are swear words, Russian by default and the corresponding audience.

And only one saleswoman spoke to me in Ukrainian.

And why is this strange, sceptical Pole closer to me than my native swear-words-speakers?

I then jumped out onto Bogaterów Square, breathed in the cold air, looked at the platform from where the Jews were being sent to Auschwitz, and thought:

And why is this strange, skeptical Pole closer to me than my native swear-words-speakers?

Where does this theory of blood and land family fail?

And why can't even missiles direct it?

For me, these are more important questions than why Russian deserters do not go to anti-Russian rallies.

Why do Ukrainians go to daily pro-Russian rallies?

In shops, on the tram, in restaurants.

Maybe the Russians should put bombs in yogurts, schnitzels and coffee and have them detonate in Russian?

And how else?
