And then they can give back to Germany the part given to them by the Soviets 
after World War II. (Not likely to happen.)

I don't think Russia would object to Poland taking what was traditionally 
theirs. This is not the Russian-speaking part of Ukraine. I'm also guessing 
that Romania and Hungary (or Slovakia?) would be able to get back their 
traditional territories taken from them by the Soviet government and given 
to Ukraine.
