The United States has reportedly warned Poland about a potential Russian military provocation, prompting Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk to declare the country is preparing for various scenarios during what he called 'critical months' ahead. NATO officials have indicated potential response plans targeting Russian military sites.
A major conference on Ukraine's post-war reconstruction opened in Poland without President Volodymyr Zelensky, who boycotted the event amid a diplomatic dispute with Warsaw over historical differences, including World War II-era issues. Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko attended instead as Polish PM Donald Tusk called for 'mutual respect' between the allies.
Polish President Karol Nawrocki stated Poland could host US troops that President Trump ordered withdrawn from Germany, vowing to personally lobby Trump. The move breaks with Prime Minister Donald Tusk's warning against 'poaching' American forces.
