To be honest? Polish People nowadays like Lithuania. The main bad feelings are for Ukraine, Russia, Germany. Rest neighbours we are cool. I was in the Lithuania and have nice chats there, they react nicely when I told them I am Polish. If we speak about Lithuania it was a Little hard moment when Lithuania has a problem with polish language and schools and treat badly polish minority. If we speak about short Polish-Lithuanian war after I world or our Republic before it is not sth harmful and shameful for both nation. Vilnus was strongely connected with Poland.

got the 2 quotas because a skater can't get more than 16 points in the free skating even if they finish lower than that. With the other one being in the 12th position, Switzerland got exactly 28 points needed to qualify 2 skaters via the World Championships.
My theory is that there were not enough ice rinks for all figure skaters and ice hockey players in USSR, so only those who had a bigger chance for medals could properly train. Since there were good pairs and dancers (and ice hockey teams), why bother about women?
Women's Quotas:

One quota from these world championships will be reallocated to the final qualifier because Switzerland wasn't able to fulfill the requirements for two skaters.

well, there is no perfect solution, sometimes nobody can score in a Greco match and someone has to win. they could leave it to the referees to decide who is more "active" but we had this before, that usually means corruption and double standards and lots of protests, another option was having overtime until somebody scores but that could mean endless matches which I still prefer but I understand why UWW doesn't want that.
as I said this is not perfect but at least with this new change nobody will be passive intentionally. in Paris we had some matches where both guys wanted to be passive and that was really ugly.
yes,very good relations,we consider them our brothers/sisters,Latvia especially,no there's no historical issues,there couldn't really be any anyway ,Latvia and estonia really only appeared on the world maps after the first world war,while we been present since as early as the 1000.
