After the war, When Stalin took over and made it part of the Soviet union this place started to deteriate. 70+ years later this place is a shell of it's former self. Stuck in the Soviet past, undeveloped, falling apart they destroyed everything that the west have built and created this weird mixture of German and ugly cold Soviet 'architecture' that's neither here nor there.

As a Polish person I can say that the last thing that Poland wants is to take over Kaliningrad. As you could see it is a really poor region and people who live there have post-Soviet, not pro-European mentality contrary to Polish people. They glorify violence, repressions and imperial politics of USSR. Polish people are completely different. We think that war brings suffering, violence and a lack of freedom we fought so hard for. Weapons are on display in WWII museums, not in the city centers. People in Kaliningrad don’t believe in democracy or innovation. They don’t understand what freedom of speech is and are scared to talk their mind in front of camera. Also, the majority of them speak Russian and are proud Russians. Poland doesn’t need a big Russian minority. We don’t have any and this is why Ukrianians can feel at home in our country. We would prefer the situation to stay this way. We don’t need more land and we are not occupiers. We never had any colonies and we haven’t occupied others nations forcibly. Obtaining Kaliningrad would hinder Polish economy, making us invest a lot of money to make this region liveable and having a decent level of living. Changing the mindset of people there would take generations. We are not like Soviets, who do things forcibly. We believe in democracy and free will. Of course it’s not a perfect situation that it belongs to Russia that is now an aggressor, an authoritarian regime and a fascist country which has a big military base full of Iskanders there but we don’t want it. Maybe Lithuania or Germany would like to take it over… I would hope so because Poles are not interested.

People like these also exist in countries like usa, but extremes are more socially accessible in parts of poland that wish to gain independence or make sure rationalists are never in control of law making. Soviet union and warsaw pact fucked alot of nations and people are still divided along religious fundamentalists and normal people, who have too much communistic ideals and opinions left to this day. Your "intelligencia" is seriously fucked up still and it will take decades for relatable left wing to be in existence. Until then you have to deal with possibility of your democracy ending without bloodshed like it did in other part of eastern europe like belarus, who I assume had real democratic possibilities in -91 and before.

Well, Russia is not a Communist state at all you need to understand that, government uses Soviet past only in context of "great Russian history" and "great Victory" in order to help military propoganda. But in all other directions communists blamed in Russia like in EU and USA for freedom of word, tyranny, civil war etc. We have anti-communist propoganda even in our schools so we government uses it only in cases where they need it. Also we have real Marxist communists(that are not the ones that sits in Duma -our parliament) of course they dont support war, capitalism, and current regime. But it's a not a big group, and those are blamed by governmental "communists" and government as well as in your narions and government call them traitors, agents of America (as well as in GB and America they are called agents of Russia). Ah, and you asked how we see difference in nazims and all this shit, well most government supporters just saw Ukrainian nazis(thar really are in Ukraine) and believe that we fighting like in ww2 against nazims, the thing that we have same nationalists in every moment of our policy and government they don't care they believe in they country, and the Marxist communists saying like: " capitalism is always lead to facizm due to each country when have curtain level of income starts to use other countries and became a rival to the other great countries on market, and that leads to tensions and that leads to war (I'm trying to say about whole theory in one message there are more arguments)". So the difference they see not in tyranny or democracy but in production and earnings separation way in fasizm and capitalism they don't care about poor and education and other shit unless it makes you money. So Marxists and Leninists doesn't care if regime democratic or tyranny they look over market, and also they blame our government like: " we are the same country as Ukraine, we have oligarchs, we have free market, we have corruption, we have nationalists, so why the f are we fighting, we need to denationalize our country before do it with others (now you understand why are they called traitor's by those who support official government)

But left community in Russia is very different they support and criticise different ussr regimes and leaders, most of us comes to thoughts that Stalins actions was inevitable but he was Marxist other think that he ruined some Lenin ideas and is not real communist, just tyran that taken power. Let me explain, first ones say that his actions were necessary because you know country was at civil war between liberals and communists (both sides taken bloody actions and if you not use hard measures to promote citizens for war and your opponent does you will simply lose war and there be a lot of blood but your blood and your comrades), also there were anarchists over Ukraine that were acting like gang, Germany fighting as ww1 opponent, alies making they sieges over north, east and south and many others that forced him to this actions. The same reasons Stalin supporters provide for other crimes like we had weak nonindustrial country after civil war and party cleaning/national departures/grain management was needed to avoid revolts, cities destabilisation and to prepare for next war, so they say he did everything to protect people. The guys who blame him say you know what arguments he lead country to hunger, killed democracy (may be you don't know but communists stay for democratic government like parliament and its leader), killed many people and was just fighting for the power not any ideas. If you asked personally my opinion i think it's in the middle of both, i dont think he cared only about his power because he wasn't use it for his own prosperity he just used power to arrange country he had good and awful achievements but his rule definitely was not Marxist as it was not even close to democratic and i think not facist because he didn't want to capture world market, make industrial colonies from poor countries, he cared about education, medicine, working spaces for all nations in USSR i think he was militaristic socialist tyrann that's best description of course i agree that he made crimes but i don't know what to say you how to avoid them, because if other party in civil war wins(central government) they'd kill as much people...

So nazi Germany and facist Italy used this very strict governmental capitalism communists say, they could invade countries for the same reasons to get resources for their own people, not to help nations they invade (build schools, plants, educate people, etc that's for the word is the way communists explain their invasions if America came to Afghanistan and just established democratic leadership, also for some reason huge amounts of heroin started to come to "free market" from Afghanistan, the USSR wanted to build civil infrastructure and of course to establish communist leadership).

I think USA and Russia have used it as a Battle ground to test out their military capabilities and achieve or aid control over oil for a favoured member of the country. It’s disgusting and now that I’m older and learning more about how our world operates, I don’t favour the actions that were taken. What is hard to swallow “today”is to see war in what the western world considers to be a representation of peaceful civilised Europe. And the west SHOULD HAVE paid much more attention back in 2014.

People from every country are difficult . Narcissistic traits make us destroy one another . The wars will go on over and over . We should be looking much more into how to eliminate this gene and see if man could then find peace .

The russian colonization has always been done together with a russification. This leads nowadays to a dangereous situation in many places. Kaliningrad is clearly an anomaly , a caricature of what russian imperialism could produce along its history. Decolonization is always a tough process but in the case of the russian empire , we are far from the end of it.

Kaliningrad District is a very underinvested and neglected part of Russia, treated as a great base for nuclear weapons and that's it, nothing more. The possibility of shopping in Poland, before the border was closed, was highly appreciated there ... But you are not right. In fact this area is very similar to most provincial Russia, in many places it is even worse (70% of Russians have no modern WC, 40% put sewage into the gutter under the windows or pour them through the window or balcony. Kaliningrad inherited at least the sewage system from the Germans).

Russia is a vast country, and even you've traveled to a small nation like Brunei Darussalam, you will find the same situations where you can never find ultra modern facilities in the districts far from the main city where you can find people living there are happy as though that time is always on their side. Good luck chump! 😅

In July 1946, the Soviet Union drove out all the Germans in Kaliningrad?

What about the Suwalki path? It is about 60km large and can cut Lithuanian. Any info about?

Kaliningrad should be discussed much more indepth all across the world because it is the perfect example of what is done to a culture with so many ethnic diversities which was completely decimated to the point of now being extinct and was used as the sacrificial lamb in the name of greed and power hunger from one to another and another, while ordinary people not only witnessed murder, rape, loss of everything they had but also were forced to sign all their rights away ever to call their own home their home again. How sick was that?! And as we can see today this sort of thing just never stops, history keeps repeating itself it is just another area or another culture simply because people just don't want to get involved to say right from wrong and speak up and actually get of their backsides and do something. Because it is so convenient if someone else gets hurt but not us. Shame on all of us because one day it will be us thanks to our pure complacency of not calling a duck a duck. Wars and supporting power hungry self serving narcistic leaders all across the world needs to stop. Also, Kaliningrad should have been declared a fully independent zone since the end of World War 2 from the start and no military equipment should have ever been allowed to be placed there, another big mess created by the former "world leaders" with potentially severe consequences. Kant is turning in his grave right now but that is not enough, we the common people need to really stop all this nonsense of invasions and wars for nothing but ego massaging of a select few while everyone else suffers.

War is too expensive an undertaking for it to be over "ideals" - it is, and has always been, over resources. In earlier days it would be land (farmland) but theses days it is most often over fossil fuel or rare minerals. Yes, the leaders SAY it is to bring "democracy", "freedom" or to "eliminate" undesired political views but that is merely a way of glossing over the real reasons, a justification of the expense and loss of life.

@@jacleena One thing to consider is that everything collapses, it is only a question of time. A second is that "collapse" does not mean it is destroyed. It can mean destruction, such as the Roman empire, but usually it only means that its current form changes. An example from current times is the USSR. While there are no guarantees that Russia will collapse it holds several of the signs; massive popular support of the elite and war means that the elite must deliver. This is how over-extension begins. In the case of Russia over-extension came quickly due to internal corruption of military funds for upkeep. The fallout of this alone is enough to begin internal purges and thus infighting. I would give Russia no more then a decade in its current form.

(because Russia is actually not a communist state) Communism is a form, where everybody should have more or less the same good life and people share things. And the leaders make sure, that things and goods arrive the people and no one enriches themself. But this is 100% NOT the case in Russia ! They stuck in "socialism" which is the form before you might reach communism..and that is when only a handful of people hold all the wealth from a country in order to redistribute it..but thatsecond part they forgot about and literally exploitng their own people. And in order to make them not realising it, you have to isolate that country from inside and build up a complete fake news world where you blame the west for the miss fortune in the own country so the the local people won't stand up against their regime.
