None of the NATO countries is threatened by aggression on behalf of Russia, as aggression with regard to at least Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia or Poland means a war with all of NATO and, consequently, World War III.

He recalled that there weren't even arguments that Russia could use as a pretext for an invasion of Poland.
"There are no territorial disputes between Poland and Russia. In Poland, there is no Russian minority that Russia would like to support. Poland has nothing, in terms of natural resources, that Russia does not have. And so why would Russia attack Poland?" Miller argued.

So we can say that relations have been put on hold… Without some impulse at the highest level in Poland as well as in Russia nothing will change as the Polish policy is based on anti-Russian sentiment," the former prime minister indicated.
He added that anti-Russian sentiment had tacitly become a part of Poland's official state doctrine, bringing relations with Moscow to their current levels.
