1945 Soviet Invasion of Manchuria and the Kwangtung Army

I could watch by relocating my VPN but I've seen similar accounts before. Toward the end of the war, the Chinese did some amazing stuff to try to rid themselves of the Japanese who had killed at least 20 million Chinese during their occupation.
The bad blood toward Japan as a result is still strong with China.
Or are you just trying to carry more water for Stalin's awful regime? And their attempt to horn in at the last minute on America's victory over Japan?
I didn't watch the video, and I am not even sure what your point is. Given what happened after WWII, I cant understand why any Polish person would have sympathy for Russia.
However, do you even consider how Poland was treated under the Soviet Union
I grew up in Poland under Communist rule, and I only heard about bad things that were happening during Stalin rule. Nothing comparable to what Poles suffered under German occupation.
Before Stalin's death (he was not Russian BTW) the level of oppression was comparable to Pinochet's rule or Cuba under Batista. Since the late 1950s it was quite OK.
You see, there is a lot of history revisionism going on.
Why many are grateful for American's role in the cold war?
Some are or used to be, many do not think about American role during Cold War so much. Perhaps because they live abroad? :)
In general people in Poland have various opinions. And half of them do not remember Cold War.
