".... In 1918 Poland regained its independence for the first time after 123 years of partition and occupation. But only two years later, that independence was being threatened again by the invasion of the Red Army into Polish territory.
The reason for the Soviet invasion of Poland was that both Lenin and Trotsky believed that by destroying Poland, they would create a red bridge to Europe - particularly Germany - which was ripe at those years for a Communist revolution.
The supreme commander of the Red Army, General Mikhail Tukhachevsky stated : "To the West! Over the corpse of White Poland lies the road to worldwide conflagration! Onward to Berlin, over the corpse of Poland!"
Germany at that time was disarmed, bankrupt, defeated, without an army and with millions of German Communists who were just waiting for the Red Army to show up to help them start their own Communist revolution. The Red Army wouldn't even had to attack Germany, just show up and Germany would be theirs.
Once Soviet Russia secured Germany, the possibility of projecting the Communist revolution all accross Europe, a pan European Communist revolution, and of a Soviet Europe, would become a very real scenario.
However in order to reach Germany and then the whole of Europe, Lenin and Trotsky first needed to destroy Poland, and so they sent almost a million Red Army soldiers to invade and crush Poland...."
