Trump Says 'Major Progress' Made on Potential US Military Base in Poland
The US president said talks with Warsaw are advancing toward a permanent American military presence on NATO's eastern flank, even as Washington reviews its broader troop posture in Europe.
US President Donald Trump said that Washington and Warsaw are making "major progress" toward establishing a US military base in Poland, according to France 24.
Such a base would give the United States a permanent military foothold on NATO's eastern flank, the report said.
The announcement comes as the Trump administration conducts a broader review of its troop presence across Europe, France 24 reported.
Details on the timeline, location, or scale of the potential base were not immediately available in the report.
Poland, which shares a border with Russia's ally Belarus and is close to Ukraine, has sought a stronger US military presence in recent years amid heightened security concerns in the region.
