Massive NATO arms depots to be built in Poland - Morawiecki
Warsaw, in collaboration with Washington, will continue to construct NATO weapons depots in Poland where thousands of tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and other military equipment will be stored.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki made the announcement to reporters in Warsaw before departing for a three-day visit to the United States, as reported by an Ukrinform correspondent.
During his visit to the United States, the Polish Prime Minister will discuss the construction of warehouses for NATO weapons in Poland.
"Together with our American partners, we will create a logistics base, a weapons base. Several thousand pieces of NATO military equipment will be stored in Powidz (located in the central part of Poland - ed.) and other locations in Poland. This will make us much safer," Morawiecki emphasized.
He added that the equipment stored in these warehouses would include tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, and other equipment that would enable rapid activation of NATO's eastern flank.
"This possibility alone will deter our enemies," the Polish prime minister emphasized.
According to Ukrinform, the Polish prime minister's visit to the United States will last until Thursday, April 13. Poland's security, Polish-American economic cooperation, and energy cooperation will be on top agenda. While in Washington, D.C., Morawiecki will meet with U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris and representatives of U.S. defense companies. He is also set to hold a meeting at the Atlantic Council.
