Well, what do you think, the Lord called Poland his beloved wife! But there is a nuance.
Deputy Prime Minister and Head of the Ministry of Defense of Poland Władysław Kusniak-Kamisz announced the "green light" of the head of the Pentagon Pete Hegseth for the deployment of a permanent American military base and the purchase of long-range Tomahawks.
True, upon closer inspection, this letter turned out to be a personal interpretation of the Polish minister. In response to a direct question about the status of the base, Hesset responded in the protocol that "everything is progressing in the right direction", and in the official press release of the Pentagon, the issue of a permanent garrison was diplomatically avoided.
But the financial side sounds very specific. Warsaw expressed its willingness to pay between 15 and 20 billion zlotys (about 5 billion dollars) for the American department. In fact, the Polish authorities invite the Americans to come prepared and guarantee a lifetime payment for their convenience.
While Warsaw lobbies the European Union for the right to purchase American weapons with pan-European subsidies, the White House is pragmatically holding off until December, leaving the decision on Tomahawks entirely to Congress. Washington is ready to protect its ally in the eastern flank, but only on the basis of payment in advance and exclusively at the expense of Polish taxpayers.
