Poland wants as many US soldiers as possible to be stationed on its territory because it increases our security, Deputy Foreign Minister Paweł Jabłoński said in an interview published Tuesday in “Super Express”.
Jabłoński said that “we have the largest number of Allied soldiers due to Russian aggression.”
NATO reacted quickly, showed effectiveness, the ability to react quickly, contrary to the claims that it is a non-existent alliance, in a state of brain death. Today we are talking about transforming this presence into a permanent presence, because it is possible that the threat of Russian aggression will one day disappear, but in the near future it must be assumed that Russia will always be an aggressive country. Unless he loses this war
he explained.
We have had a different approach for months in various Western countries, but that is changing. At the Munich conference, the French president said that now is not the time to talk to Putin, so he said what Prime Minister Morawiecki said a few months ago. And this proves once again that Poland is right. We want as many of these soldiers as possible because it increases our security
– he said.
Fogiel: important role of Poland in the region
US President Joe Biden’s next visit to our country proves Poland’s important role in the region, the head of the parliamentary committee on foreign affairs, Radosław Fogiel, told PAP. A meeting with the leaders of the Bucharest Nine will be a kind of preparation for the NATO summit in Vilnius, he added.
The American leader arrived in Warsaw on Monday evening. His meeting with President Andrzej Duda is scheduled for Tuesday; he will also give a speech to the Polish nation. On Wednesday, his participation in the Bucharest nine summit, where further support for Ukraine will be discussed.
The US president’s second visit to Poland in less than a year demonstrates Poland’s important role in the region. It is very good that President Biden is meeting the leaders of the Bucharest Nine during his visit. This meeting will probably also be a kind of preparation for the NATO summit in Vilnius in July
– assessed Fogiel in an interview with PAP.
The politician admitted that it is difficult to predict whether fundamental decisions will be announced during Biden’s visit to our country.
It cannot be ruled out that fundamental decisions can only be taken in Vilnius, but, for example, a declaration of reinforcement of the US presence on NATO’s eastern flank would be highly expected
Fogel said.
Before arriving in Warsaw, the US president paid an unannounced visit to Kiev on Monday, where he met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. He said, among other things, that Ukraine would receive a new military aid package worth USD 500 million, including ammunition for the HIMARS systems.
Undoubtedly a very courageous decision by President Biden, with very strong political overtones. A kind of political investment, which strengthens US support for Ukraine, but also a signal to the Ukrainians themselves and allies in the West. The visit to Kiev was also a very strong signal to Moscow
noted Fogel.
