its a symbol of the city
I was born in Warsaw and I think so 🤔
tallest building in warsaw i suppose
yes its still the tallest one
but there's a taller one U/C
>but wasn't surrounding it with far more uglier skyscrapers a little stupid move?
donnut bully our skyscrapers
Socialist realism. 👌
they didn't "surround it with skyscrapers"
it's the city centre
its only natural skyscrapers will pop out there
well, soviet union gave so much money to western block
>well, soviet union gave so much money to western block
thats like your opinion kek
you're told you gave money to the other members of the bloc, we're told you were leeching of everything of value from here so...
But now it's surrounded by skyscrapers and these skyscrapers were built to hide it from the outside view. Now Warsaw's centre just looks ugly, wasn't this building just much more beautiful than these NY-style phalluses?
@rogalik but you're just in denial
soviets gave you best they have
@Mastisæg you realise that this building itself, one of the stalinist skyscrapers was based off american art deco 🤔
there's a demand for skyscrapers in there, it's a centre of our capital, I don't really know wahts your point
I am the greatest russophile here, but I must say that you are lying, @impertinence (or just trolling). 👌
you dont like them?
money like them
@Deus well, prove me wrong
@impertinence in denial about what
xD
I've actually seen a source on it once
not sure if I will be able to find it quickly tho
>At the same time, at the war's end, the Soviet Union adopted a "plunder policy" of physically transporting and relocating east European industrial assets to the Soviet Union.[162] Eastern Bloc states were required to provide coal, industrial equipment, technology, rolling stock and other resources to reconstruct the Soviet Union.[163] Between 1945 and 1953, the Soviets received a net transfer of resources from the rest of the Eastern Bloc under this policy of roughly $14 billion, an amount comparable to the net transfer from the United States to western Europe in the Marshall Plan.[163][164] "Reparations" included the dismantling of railways in Poland and Romanian reparations to the Soviets between 1944 and 1948 valued at $1.8 billion concurrent with the domination of SovRoms.[161]
In addition, the Soviets re-organised enterprises as joint-stock companies in which the Soviets possessed the controlling interest.[164][165] Using that control vehicle, several enterprises were required to sell products at below world prices to the Soviets, such as uranium mines in Czechoslovakia and East Germany, coal mines in Poland, and oil wells in Romania.[166]
uh ok, that was easy
oh, nice copypaste
very credible wow
are you trolling or do you seriously believe that the ussr was the on the losing side there
Btw, is a person named Tomasz Maciejczuk well known in Poland?
Katyń [*]
sources aside, it's completely irrational from the geopolitical point of view, USSR was far stronger than all the rest of the Eastern Bloc combined, it's only natural that the USSR would take the advantage
Never forget.
@Mastisæg @impertinence do you know
