Poland to Expand Military and Pursue Advanced Defense Capabilities

Prime Minister Donald Tusk outlines plans for nationwide military training, a larger army, and consideration of nuclear options in response to security concerns.

Poland plans to train all adult men and some women in military readiness, aiming to create a reserve force adequate to potential threats.
The country seeks to increase its military size to 500,000 personnel, including reservists, up from the current 200,000.
Prime Minister Tusk has proposed raising defense spending to 5% of GDP and exploring advanced weaponry, including potential nuclear capabilities.
The government is considering withdrawing from international treaties banning landmines and cluster munitions to enhance its defense strategy.
Poland's actions are driven by concerns over Russia's aggression and shifting U.S. policies under President Trump regarding European security guarantees.
