Yeah people just don't know about the OTHER mutual non-aggression pact signed with the Nazis, the one done so Poland and Germany could annex Czechoslovakia. And then there was the fighting during the upheaval of the fall of the Russian empire but.....much as I am loath to say it, Poland was more in the right in that very specific conflict.
Poland kept invading everyone else, annexing left and right, yet the west eats up nonsensical shit about Poland somehow being the perpetual innocent victim. Like even wikipedia makes the soviet-polish war being Polish aggression coming off of annexing the Western Ukrainian People's republic. It was the 'Kiev _offensive for a reason folks
The west supporting polish nationalism is very advantageous to it, otherwise who else will reliably rattle the saber at Russia?
A funny thing in Polish Nationalism is how eagerly it supported the Ukrainian Maidan right wing Revolution, to then go :surprised-pika: when it started doing historical revisionism in favor of OUN groups doing anti-polish ethnic cleansing of Galicia during WW2.
Obama probably didn't care. For Poland though, it's supporting an openly hostile political force on the border and probably endangering the remainder of the polish minority in the Ukraine (the article is important as apparently it pisses off nationalists) to attacks.

Like Obama when arming the Azov battalion. "wait just a second, you mean arming literal Nazis might be.....bad?"

Munich Agreement is the big counterexample, but there were a lot more
