      Lithuania’s territorial claims after their independence were ridiculous and if they had the borders they wanted Lithuanians would be a minority in their own country.

      Man, this is over 100 years old. The detailed context is long gone, unless you are a PhD in the narrow field. Who published it? At what particular turn of events? Who knows?

      But on the wider topic of Polish-Lithuanian relations, I think FSB grabs us (both Lithuania and Poland) by the balls pretty hard, it is just ridiculous how difficult it is to sort out old grievances, despite the common enemy and the long, long history of facing that enemy together.

      IMO it’s a disgusting propaganda. Poland invaded Lithuania Putin-little-green-man-style to capture Vilnius, and then propagandists draws the Lithuanians as dog? Shameful.

      The topic of Lithuania seems to me very confusing and ambiguous. Lithuanians were largely Polonized, I mean the Lithuanian elite, and post-war Lithuania was founded on the Samogitian national core. Samogitia did not historically include the Vilnius region, which the Samogitians wanted to take over to have Vilnius as their capital due to its importance in the historical context and to increase the likelihood of consent to the creation of the state of Lithuania. In other words, they took away from us a city that historically belonged to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth – a state in which Polish culture predominated and which had a greater right to call itself Lithuanian in the sense of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania than the Samogitians. It’s like North Macedonia, which has no connection with Alexander the Great and yet declared itself his heirs. Greater historical impact. Correct me if I’m wrong
