Assuming this news is true, does it have a strategical impact to this armed conflict between Russia vs Ukraine?
Another question, does this mean Ukraine or what is left of Ukraine would be handed over to Poland to take care of?

Just to remind what sort of regime we are dealing with here :
A Moscow court on Tuesday threw out jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny's appeal against a nine-year prison sentence that he and his allies condemn as politically motivated.
Moscow City Court ruled to "leave the sentence without changes" and for it to enter into force immediately. This meant that Navalny will be transferred to a strict regime prison colony to serve out his term, after he was found guilty in March of embezzlement and contempt of court, charges he denies.
Navalny, by far Russia's most prominent opposition figure, was handed the nine-year jail term in March in addition to the two-and-half years he is already serving. Navalny maintains the charges against him were fabricated to thwart his political ambitions.
The ruling came after a live court hearing on Tuesday, when Navalny lambasted Russian President Vladimir Putin, casting him as a madman who had started a "stupid war" in Ukraine based on lies.
"This is a stupid war which your Putin started," Navalny, 45, told the court via video link from a corrective penal colony. "This war was built on lies."
Repeatedly interrupted by the judge, Navalny cast the prosecution's "facts" as "lies" – and compared them to the lies he said Putin, Russia's paramount leader since the last day of 1999, had used to launch the February 24 invasion of Ukraine.
"What do you want to achieve? Do you want short-term control, to fight with future generations, fight for the future of Russia?" Navalny asked the court. "You will all suffer historic defeat."
Navalny said Putin's Russia was run by thieves and criminals who had become enemies of the Russian people.
"One madman has got his claws into Ukraine and I do not know what he wants to do with it, this crazy thief," Navalny said of Putin.
The Kremlin has repeatedly dismissed Navalny's claims about Putin, who it says has won numerous fair elections in Russia since 2000 and remains by far the country's most popular politician. It has dismissed Navalny's claim that Putin is corrupt as nonsense.
Putin says the "special military operation" in Ukraine is necessary to demilitarise and "denazify" the country, and because the US was using Ukraine to threaten Russia through NATO enlargement and Moscow had to defend against the persecution of Russian-speaking people.
Ukraine and its Western allies reject these as baseless pretexts to invade a sovereign country.
