Warsaw plans to deploy more troops to provinces bordering russia and Bbelarus. We are talking about the Warmia and Mazury, Podlaskie, Lubelskie, and Podkarpackie voivodeships. This was stated by Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysh, reports Polska Agencja Prasowa, writes UNN.
Details
It is noted that these regions are located on Poland's northeastern border with russia, Lithuania, belarus and Ukraine.
We will increase the presence of the Polish army in the Podlaskie Voivodeship, Lubelskie, Warmia and Mazury, and Podkarpackie Voivodeship, in all the border voivodeships. I want to assure you of this, because this is our raison d'être
The head of the Polish defense ministry also said that a meeting of the National Security Committee was held last week, and one of the topics discussed was the situation on the Polish-belarusian border and the increasing number of attempts to illegally cross it.
The Border Guard Service is supported by the military within the framework of the Podlasie Military Task Force in protecting the border
Addendum
Kosinyak-Kamysh noted that these activities are planned for next year, and funding for them has already been secured. He added that it is also about helping people at the border.
In particular, the minister emphasized that increasing the military presence at the border means, among other things, investments, for example, in the construction of new shelters for units.
The Defense Minister emphasized that all measures are aimed at deterring potential enemies.
Recall
Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski suggested spending the frozen russian assets to prevent the consequences of russian aggression and protect Ukraine, rather than rebuild it, as the aggressor must pay for its actions.
