An American military base in Poland this year? Nawrocki comments

President Karol Nawrocki noticed the lack of a representative of the Presidential Palace in the Polish team preparing talks with the US about the permanent presence of American troops in Poland, even though he assured that cooperation with the government was going well. He acknowledged delays in negotiations after meeting with Trump in September 2025, but emphasized the shared goal of establishing a permanent U.S. presence. Trump announced significant progress and said he would announce the location of the base, while the decision rests with the US after the completion of a six-month review of its military presence in Europe. Nawrocki criticized every attempt to reduce the sanctions imposed on Russia, calling for more stringent sanctions.

Ukraine went three days without attacking Russian energy facilities to comply with Washington's wishes, while Russia continued to shell such targets in Ukraine, killing more than 100 civilians in the last week.
