However, the U.S. response to Soviet actions in Afghanistan was more direct and involved providing military aid to the Afghan mujahideen rebels in their fight against the Soviet-backed government. In contrast, the U.S. response to Soviet actions in Poland primarily involved diplomatic condemnation and economic sanctions, as well as providing support for the Polish Solidarity movement. Additionally, the U.S. did not directly provide military aid to anti-Soviet forces in Poland. Overall, the U.S. response to Soviet actions in Afghanistan was more overtly militaristic compared to the response in Poland.
