Put yourself in the position of Britain in 1945. Stretched, tired, broke and with an empire in tatters. Then look at what they'd have to face to contest Poland by force.
Yet the Britain was able to face the USSR when it was about sharing the III Reich.

Betrayal, no. Invasion by an unstoppable force, certainly. There's a whole world of difference between turning your back or just accepting what has happened because the costs of doing something are too high.
Britain should have never ratify any international agreements if they were to ignore them from the start.

I reckon the Soviets could have driven their tanks up Pall Mall quite quickly if they'd wanted to.
I reckon the Allied forces still had a few milion German soldiers ready to fight the commies by the end of the war.
