Ukraine has expanded its draft class size by 200,000, and parts of the French Foreign Legend have deployed to Ukraine. If Putin does not nuke France in the near future which I highly doubt then I expect Poland will join them in sending troops into Ukraine.


Yes, Ukraine has recently struggled to mobilize enough troops. But if French, Polish, or troops from other NATO nations can replace Ukrainian troops along the Belarus border and the Transnistria border, that would free up over 20,000 Ukrainian troops to actually fight.

Poland is itching to do something to respond to Belarus and Russia trying to flood its borders with migrants. Poland would love nothing else than to put troops on the Ukraine-Belarus border in between Chernihiv and Gomel with a sign that says Hej Lukaszenko, nadal chcesz sie pieprzyc?

I guess we're just blowing up the whole "we're going to hurt Russia without committing any troops" trope the dumbest people in the country loved to repeat ad nauseum.
