Very worthwhile comment by the well-known Polish writer Szczepan Twardoch.
It has been published in German language, so you may need to ask google
translate or deepl, while I expect to find an official English language
version soon.

It is about "Westsplaining", and why people living in Russia's immediate
neighbourhood should be trusted and taken seriously rather than told to
stop spreading "Russophobia". It is also about Eastern European people's
right to freely choose their preferred way of life and of course also
alliances.
"Western" intellectuals' arrogance when it comes to Russia and Ukraine is
hard to bear, in particular when the "geo strategists" come out and have
their say.
