Concerning "to the decisive economic benefit of the Soviet Union" and "a stretch of barren land with low quality soil and without any natural resources" - at least Russian Wikipedia refers to the fact that the official initiative was started by the Polish government with the aim to get some oil manufacturing facilities. The actual (albeit unofficial) initiator may, of course, very well have been the USSR, and they may have gotten the better end of the deal (or may not, it is hard to say without reading actual geological reports, etc) but even if imagined, the benefit Poland supposedly got is definitely worthy of mentioning for the sake of balance. -- 82.131.125.77 ( talk) 20:40, 11 July 2016 (UTC) reply

Ah, sorry, somehow I missed the last paragraph in the first reading. Still, it could have been included in the introductive summary. -- 82.131.125.77 ( talk) 20:42, 11 July 2016 (UTC) reply
