EDITORS COMMENTS
September 1939: A Moment of Historical Infamy - The Fateful Discussions Between German and Russian Commanders Over the Division of Poland This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in world history as Russian Commander Borowenski bends intently over a map of Poland during discussions between German and Russian officers about the demarcation of the country following the invasion by Germany and Russia in September 1939. The image, taken during the early stages of World War II, encapsulates the ominous atmosphere of the time as two powerful military forces carved up the Polish territory between them. The invasion of Poland marked the beginning of the Second World War, and the subsequent partitioning of the country was a clear violation of international law. The image of Borowenski and his colleagues huddled around the map serves as a poignant reminder of the political maneuverings and power struggles that led to the devastating conflict. The photograph offers a glimpse into the high-level negotiations that took place between the German and Russian military commanders, as they sought to establish their respective spheres of influence in the newly invaded territory. Borowenski's intense focus on the map underscores the gravity of the situation, as the fate of millions of Poles hung in the balance. The image also highlights the complex and often shifting alliances of the time, as the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, two seemingly disparate ideologies, found common ground in their desire for territorial expansion. The photograph is a stark reminder of the human cost of war and the destructive consequences of political ambition and power-hunger. This powerful image is a testament to the historical significance of the events of September 1939 and offers a unique perspective on the political and military dynamics of the time. It serves as a poignant reminder of the past and a cautionary tale for the future.
