Curzon line was suggested _during_ the war.

Besides, as I said - Poland had the same rights to these territories, so it was a fair game of whoever captured them first.

And if we're talking about broken agreements - Bolsheviks broke that agreement first.

So basically you are saying that it was fair game for Poland to forcibly capture the territory, but when the USSR did the same, it's wrong and despicable?

Nice double standards.

Where did I ever said anything about 'wrong and despicable'?
Sorry, that wasn't you.

It is often used as an argument, that USSR invaded Poland (see above) and therefore they were literally Hitler.

What is forgetten is the B side of the coin, which is the content of this thread.

Yes, they're invaded Poland. And no, Poland didn't captured any USSR territories before that, so you can't justify that invasion.
> Poland didn't captured any USSR territories before that,

Keep telling yourself that. With a sufficient twist, you can rationalize anything!

Please do tell me when Poland captured USSR territories.
