The French government may have been away from NATO, but its implications and debt to it were immense
But by leaving NATO they showed their own independence
They weren’t a puppet of USA anymore
Were they really independent though
Unlike Poland
Austria isn't in NATO, yet it's still a puppet
Who was its owner then?
Mostly America
Obviously not the Soviets, because they would have been FORCED to join the Warsaw Pact
Warsaw governments agreed to join Warsaw Pact
“Agreed”
And Warsaw Pact was a reaction to the western aggressiveness
In NATO
Stalin actually applied to join NATO, but when rejected, it was clear it was an act of aggression towards the Soviet Union
Poland was a puppet state. Are you denying that?
If The Soviet Union joined NATO, then that would defeat the whole purpose wouldn’t it?
Poland has almost always been a puppet state ever since its collapse of the empire
Occupied by mostly Germany and Russia
Then got a bit of independence, with an extremely reactionary government in WW2
But you can’t say that they agreed to anything it they were coerced.
The government agreed to it
Italy however, was forced into NATO
It was a puppet government installed by Stalin, of course they were going to agree with it!
Otherwise tanks would be rolled into Warsaw
And then Stalin would get the response he wanted
Stalin never sent tanks into Warsaw apart from getting the nazis out of it
Apart from the remaining fascists in Poland, people were happy under stalin in Poland
And late I might add, so that resistance fighters would be mostly killed off.
Khrushchev I will not defend, however
In the Warsaw uprising
“People were happy in Poland under Stalin”
What does this have anything to do with the topic?
Warsaw uprising in 1944 LMAO
You mean the brainwashed fascists and their government?
Poland never had democracy
No Eastern European country before end of WW2 had democracy, except czechiaslovakia
Priest ridden, totalitarian, backwards, semi feudal country
I’m not saying Poland did have democracy...
It was authoritarian
