Poland Requests Permanent U.S. Military Base on Its Territory
Polish officials asked the United States on Wednesday to establish a permanent military base. The request follows recent changes in U.S. troop deployments across Europe.
Washington ExaminerPolish officials asked the United States on Wednesday to establish a permanent military base on Polish territory. Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz wrote on X that he had conveyed an official proposal to the U.S. Secretary of Defense. He stated that U.S. engagement in Poland’s security is not diminishing and may increase.
Background on U.S.
Polish military officials were informed that the Pentagon planned to cancel a previously discussed 4,000-troop deployment, but the decision was later reversed. The administration also announced plans to withdraw roughly 5,000 troops from Germany after tensions between U.S. and German officials over the Iran war.

That plan stalled over funding and logistical issues. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk welcomed the recent decision to maintain a significant U.S. military presence, calling it positive for both nations.
