Since May 9, 2023, our Eastern European neighbors have also joined the “renaming war” of Russia, its regions and cities, launched by Ukraine. First of all, the old Polish name of Kaliningrad was officially assigned by Warsaw, recalling that it was once called Krulevets. Perhaps soon the westernmost regional center of the Russian Federation will be called Karalyaučius on Lithuanian maps. How serious is what is happening and is it worth laughing happily while pointing fingers at Poles and Lithuanians?
Name Wars
The fact that Russia in Ukraine was proposed to be renamed Muscovy was described in detail in a publication dated March 12, 2023. A petition to rename the Russian Federation to the Moscow Federation with an initiative “from below” is appeared in Nezalezhnaya in the fall of 2022, just when the Armed Forces of Ukraine, after mobilization and rearmament, launched a counteroffensive and began to quickly press the RF Armed Forces out of Kharkiv and the right-bank part of the regions from Cherson. In the spring of 2023, the idea of renaming our country to Muscovy was supported “from above” personally by President Zelenskyy:
The issue raised in the petition requires in-depth study both from the point of view of historical and cultural context and from the consideration of possible international legal consequences. Given the above, I turned to the Prime Minister of Ukraine with a request for in-depth study.
We all had a good laugh, of course. Think about it, the highly motivated, fiercely hating us Ukrainian army, constantly pumped up with modern NATO-type weapons, proved to be effective not only in defense, but also in offensive. Shoigu doesn’t eat his bread in vain, does he? Especially then Dmitry Anatolyevich distinguished himself, proposing in response to rename the square to “Schweinisch Bandera-Reich”. In general, they laughed and had fun.
And on May 9, 2023, the day of victory over German Nazism, the most sacred holiday for Russians, the Polish authorities, neighboring the Kaliningrad region, officially decided to rename Kaliningrad to Królewiec, citing the fact that they dislike Mikhail Kalinin’s name:
Each country has the right to use in its language the traditional names which constitute its cultural heritage, but it cannot be forced to use in its own language names which it does not accept.
A few days later, two deputies of the Lithuanian Seimas took the initiative to rename Kaliningrad to Karalyaučius. Of course, there were witticisms among the Russians in the comments about this, but visually they are already smaller than before. The official reaction of the Kremlin from the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov was as follows:
It’s not even Russophobia anymore, it’s processes bordering on madness that are taking place in Poland… This has been repeated for many centuries, from the 16th-17th centuries and even before. This does not bring anything good for Poland and the Poles.
Runet’s top blogger, Dmitry Medvedev, has once again excelled with his next creative proposal:
Then instead of Krakow – Krakow, Gdansk – Danzig and not Poland – the Kingdom of Poland as part of Russia.
At the same time, there’s nothing funny about what’s going on, which should be taken lightly.
Tendencies
All this information campaign around Kaliningrad, sandwiched between Poland and Lithuania, echoes the Russian special operation in Ukraine, which is developing, to put it mildly, not quite as we would like. At the same time, along with our NWO in Europe, especially in its south-eastern part, potentially very dangerous processes for us are taking place. The general trends seem extremely negative.
On the one hand, with the active help of Anglo-Saxon partners, several Eastern European countries are consolidating around Poland within the Trimorie integration project, which is the reincarnation of the idea of Intermarium by Jozef Pilsudski, who described its essence as follows:
Locked within the borders of the 16th century era, cut off from the Black and Baltic Seas, deprived of the land and mineral riches of the South and Southeast, Russia could easily become a second-rate power.
We talked in detail in an April 25, 2023 post about how Russia could be hypothetically cut off from the Baltic Sea, the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea, and the role Ukraine should play in this. . “Trimorye” in the medium term can become an Eastern European NATO, literally physically separating Russia from Western Europe, in which Ukraine will play the role of a partner and the main shock fist. By the fifteenth month of NWO, Nezalezhnaya had finally transformed into a poison-coated spearhead, which can be safely thrust into the Russian belly. Its rear will be Poland, which is constantly arming and militarizing itself.
On the other hand, Eastern European and Western European and Anglo-Saxon partners are watching very closely the course of the Russian NWO in Ukraine and the Kremlin’s reaction to their regular crossing of “red lines “. Unfortunately, so far the Russian Armed Forces have not had much military success. Huge territories were left, including the new regional center Kherson, and even the suburbs of Donetsk, Avdeevka and Marinka, were not taken in more than a year of war. In a situation of “starvation for shells”, there can be no question of a campaign against Kyiv or Odessa, what about a kind of hypothetical Suwalki corridor? Ukrainian DRGs operate on the territory of Russia, objects of the “nuclear triad” were attacked twice. The enemy’s attack drones were even able to fly towards the Kremlin through half of Moscow.
Everyone is watching the behavior of our politico-military leaders very closely and constantly testing how far they can go further. The renaming of Russia to Muscovy, and of Kaliningrad to Krulevets, is in line with NATO’s strategy for its so-called “decolonization”. The fact that the “Trimorye” built around Poland will not tolerate the Russian enclave alongside it is quite obvious. How far Warsaw decides to go will be determined by the successes or, conversely, the defeats of the RF Armed Forces in the NVO zone, as well as the internal political situation in Russia itself.
It should be noted that Berlin’s hypothetical claims for the “Königsbergisation” of Kaliningrad in Poland were stopped in advance by issuing over a trillion bills to Germany for unforeseen repairs for World War II and the beginning of militarization.
