WARSAW - Warsaw and Washington have agreed on six locations for new U.S. troops to be stationed in Poland, the country’s Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak said on Friday, a day after Donald Trump canceled a trip to the eastern European nation.
“We have agreed on six locations, we talked about a seventh location,” Blaszczak said at a joint news conference with U.S. national security adviser John Bolton, who was in Warsaw ahead of Trump. The military deal signed in June will increase the number of non-permanent U.S. troops in Poland by 1,000. There are on average about 4,500 U.S. troops in Poland on rotation as part of NATO forces.
In Washington, a senior White House official said the two countries may sign an agreement aimed at securing 5G networks during Pence’s visit. “Poland has been an outstanding partner of the U.S. and NATO, spending more than 2% of GDP on defense,” he said.
