Nawrocki, who I was proud to Endorse, and our relationship with him, I am pleased to announce that the United States will be sending an additional 5,000 Troops to Poland.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The announcement came just two days after US Vice President J.D. Vance told reporters that the planned deployment of American forces to the Eastern European nation had been delayed.<\/p>\n<p>The US has been reviewing its military presence in Europe in recent months, with mounting speculation that the Trump administration might reduce the number of US forces on the continent.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to the announcement in a post on X, Polish President Karol Nawrocki thanked Trump for his &#8220;friendship&#8221; and said he would continue to &#8220;stand guard over the Polish-American alliance,&#8221; calling it a &#8220;a vital pillar of security for every Polish home and all of Europe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe security of Poland and of Polish citizens is my top priority,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Trump met Nawrocki, who took office in the summer of 2025, at the White House in September, where the US leader spoke of the possibility of increasing American military presence in Poland.<\/p>\n<p>Writing on X, Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister W\u0142adys\u0142aw Kosiniak-Kamysz said Trump&#8217;s decision to send the extra troops &#8220;confirms that Polish-American relations are very strong&#8221; and that &#8220;Poland is a model and ironclad ally.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s good that we fight together for the fundamental issues of our Homeland&#8217;s security. It is a duty that turns into effectiveness,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>NATO chief Mark Rutte also welcomed Trump&#8217;s announcement on Friday, ahead of a meeting of alliance foreign ministers in Sweden, adding that NATO &#8220;military commanders are working through all the details&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stressed that the government was &#8220;trying to obtain information and to influence the decisions of our American allies\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur American allies must understand how important close and very well coordinated cooperation is from the point of view of the security of Poland, Europe, the United States and the global order, including the presence of American troops in Poland,\u201d Tusk said.<\/p>\n<p>At present, around 10,000 US troops are stationed in Poland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to accessibility shortcuts<\/p>\n<div

Vance told reporters that the planned deployment of American forces to the Eastern European nation had been delayed.The US has been reviewing its military presence in Europe in recent months, with mounting speculation that the Trump administration might reduce the number of US forces on the continent.Responding to the announcement in a post on X, Polish President Karol Nawrocki thanked Trump for his &#8220;friendship&#8221; and said he would continue to &#8220;stand guard over the Polish-American alliance,&#8221; calling it a &#8220;a vital pillar of security for every Polish home and all of Europe.&#8221;\u201cThe security of Poland and of Polish citizens is my top priority,\u201d he added.Trump met Nawrocki, who took office in the summer of 2025, at the White House in September, where the US leader spoke of the possibility of increasing American military presence in Poland.Writing on X, Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister W\u0142adys\u0142aw Kosiniak-Kamysz said Trump&#8217;s decision to send the extra troops &#8220;confirms that Polish-American relations are very strong&#8221; and that &#8220;Poland is a model and ironclad ally.&#8221;&#8221;It&#8217;s good that we fight together for the fundamental issues of our Homeland&#8217;s security. It is a duty that turns into effectiveness,&#8221; he added.NATO chief Mark Rutte also welcomed Trump&#8217;s announcement on Friday, ahead of a meeting of alliance foreign ministers in Sweden, adding that NATO &#8220;military commanders are working through all the details&#8221;.Ahead of a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk stressed that the government was &#8220;trying to obtain information and to influence the decisions of our American allies\u201d.\u201cOur American allies must understand how important close and very well coordinated cooperation is from the point of view of the security of Poland, Europe, the United States and the global order, including the presence of American troops in Poland,\u201d Tusk said.At present, around 10,000 US troops are stationed in Poland.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/my-europe\/2026\/05\/22\/trump-to-send-additional-5000-us-troops-to-poland&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/76\/82\/01\/1200x675_cmsv2_878879e3-02a7-5c5d-a32f-913b2d502944-9768201.jpg&#8221;] Travel News EU air connectivity \u2018flatlined\u2019 in 2025, with route numbers growing 1% Iran Iran asserts jurisdiction over UAE and Oman waters in new Hormuz map Cuba How Cubans feel about the US indictment of Ra\u00fal Castro Tech News High-stakes SpaceX rocket launch delayed due to mechanical woes Travel News EU air [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-1949129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1949129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1949129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1949129\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1949129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1949129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1949129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
