Sputnik: Poland Plays Down Reported Plans to Host US Nukes Amid INF Treaty Collapse
European countries have voiced their concerns over nuclear security after the United States announced its withdrawal from the INF Treaty, a major 1987 nuclear arms agreements with Russia. Poland, a NATO frontline nation, supports the US' withdrawal from the pact, while accusing Russia of what it calls aggressive behaviour.
Poland's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has denied a report suggesting that the country's top diplomat wants the United States to deploy its nuclear weapons in the country.
On Friday, Germany's Spiegel newspaper published a conversation with Polish Foreign Minister Jacek Czaputowicz, who was quoted as saying that it is in Warsaw's interest that "American troops and nuclear missiles are stationed on the continent" after the end of the Cold War-era nuclear arms treaty between Washington and Moscow.

Without Germany’s support there will be no American counter to Russia’s INF busting missiles. Currently Germany is deeply hostile to an American counter.
ReplyDeleteAnd Poland and Trump hate Russia with a passion. Trump's wife is eastern European. She loves him. He loves her. He is vulnerable to her wiles. Her loyalty is eastern European and not American. As for Trump, resisting a woman whom you love and who loves you with an unmashed passion and who bore you a son late in life is going to be extremely difficult. Can he do it? Can he place American interests above this?
ReplyDeleteI'll be extremely difficult. Few Americans have the kind of relatuonship with their wives that Donald Trump has with Melania. Can he place American interasts above her eastern European heritage?
My best guess is he can't. As such, we need to win while he is POTUS. Russian and Chinese leaders fear him. As such, they are heavily invested in the Mueller witch hunt. Should it be successful victory will be handed to Russia and China on a gold platter of which they will capitalize on and the Russians especially will not distinguish beetween those who supported such stupidity and those who didn't.
