There is the matter of much of what is now Western Poland that used to be much of eastern Germany.

Poland might not wish to get its pre-WW2 borders back.

I should add that in the 17th century, Poland used to extend far to the east.

In the 17th century “Poland” didn’t extend far to the east, the “Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth” did.

It was a multi ethnic, multi cultural country with Poles, Lithuanians, Ruthenians, Livonians, Jews etc.
