“The Americans are right to demand that Europe increase defense spending in the face of the growing threat from Russia,” Mateusz Morawiecki wrote on the X website.
In this way, the former prime minister referred to Donald Trump’s words about countries allocating appropriate amounts for defense and to the former American president’s response to these words.
Instead of parsing @realDonaldTrump’s words in a more or less successful way, it is better to take care of the defense potential of Poland and NATO. The alliance with the US is the basis of Poland’s security, regardless of who is in the White House. Damaging relations with the Americans are to Poland’s detriment
– writes Morawiecki.
Expansion of the army
Mateusz Morawiecki draws attention to the need to expand the Polish army and recalls that the previous government significantly increased the Polish defense budget.
We must expand our military. Especially since during the PiS government the defense budget increased from PLN 37 to PLN 158 billion. Thanks to the improvement in government finances, we can release 4% for this. GDP, the highest in NATO. The Americans are right to demand that Europe increase defense spending in the face of the growing threat from Russia. Instead of criticizing the US, Poland’s rulers should mobilize Germany and other European NATO members to meet their allied obligations.
