 Poland wants US nuclear weapons to stop Russian attack. Having nuclear weapons is a powerful deterrent and something Poland should look into, a retired Polish Army general said. Speaking with the RMF24 radio, Jaroslav Krasiłski, who asked about last week's proposal to give Poland nuclear weapons made by American Enterprise Institute scholar Dali Bor Rohak in the UK outlet The Spectator. I see this scenario as very real, replied Krasiłski. Those who have nuclear potential have a very high level of security, typically such countries are not attacked and there isn't even a possibility of carrying out any activities aimed at causing a local crisis. Obtaining atomic weapons is a challenge for Poland to attempt in the coming years, he added, while Rohak has proposed arming Poland with atomic warheads as part of Trump proofing the security of Eastern Europe, meaning ahead of the coming US presidential elections, Krasiłski seemed to favour a long-term approach. There will definitely be a review and resumption of negotiations on the balance of nuclear forces in the world, he told the Polish radio station. In my opinion, this will happen after the end of the armed conflict in Ukraine. Poland has repeatedly called for the US to deploy nuclear weapons on its territory. President Andrzej Duda brought up the issue in October 2022 only to be rebuffed by the US State Department. The following June, the government in Warsaw once again asked for atomic weapons under the US Nuclear Sharing Programme, citing a supposed threat from Russia and Belarus. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev responded by calling the Polish leadership degenerates who were playing with nuclear fire.
