These grievances relate to very ancient times. - Not necessarily. I do not think only of the Polish-Lithuanian siege of Moscow in 1612, but also a Polish participation in Napoleon's army in 1812.

We remember partitions, uprisings, Siberia, and the Katyn massacre of Prague - some of these events presented by the Polish books without authorization discussion. The books we see only the Russian propaganda.
But we must acknowledge that the prospect of Russia is very different. They remember us appropriation of Kievan Rus, the invasion of Russia and the burning of the Kremlin and the eternal attempts to use the West to weaken Russia. And after World War II, the Russians still live in the sense that the world thanks to their victims managed to win the war with Hitler.
