The purpose of the war was not only the capture of Warsaw, but also the export of the revolution to the west, to Germany, where an industrial country, and not an agrarian one, like Soviet Russia.

The initial stage of the war was successful for the Poles, they took Kiev, then the Red Army defeated them and advanced to Warsaw and Plock, but in August was defeated and abruptly retreated east to the Miory-Naroch-Rakov line (in front of Minsk) – Pinsk-Ternopil, that is, east of the Curzon Line.
