Deploying Patriots in western [Ukraine] would increase the safety of Poles and Ukrainians.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposal was put forward by B\u0142aszczak\u2019s German counterpart, Christine Lambrecht, who offered to send the country\u2019s Patriots and Eurofighter Typhoon jets to help safeguard Polish airspace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland initially&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/11\/21\/poland-accepts-germanys-patriot-offer-after-fatal-missile-strike\/\">accepted<\/a>&nbsp;Germany\u2019s gesture for Patriot launchers following a recent fatal&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2022\/11\/16\/pentagon-says-poland-blast-likely-caused-by-ukrainian-missile\/\">missile strike<\/a>&nbsp;on Polish soil local authorities believe was caused by the Ukrainian air defense trying to intercept Russia\u2019s missile. However, Warsaw later <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/11\/28\/poland-wants-to-divert-pledged-german-air-defenses-to-ukraine\/\">changed its mind<\/a> and suggested that Berlin deliver the systems to Ukraine to ramp up that country\u2019s defenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Germany has backed Ukraine with weapons and equipment, but, like all other NATO allies, it has also kept its military away from direct involvement in the war. With this in mind, Berlin rejected Warsaw\u2019s suggestion, pushing the Polish government to revisit, and now seemingly accept, its initial Patriot offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest series of policy twists and turns has exposed differences within the country\u2019s ruling Law and Justice party. Among others, Polish President Andrzej Duda, who was re-elected in 2020 with the party\u2019s support, stated that, if Germany \u201cdoes not agree to deliver the batteries to Ukraine, then we must accept this defense here\u201d in Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, some local observers say it is likely Warsaw will accept Berlin\u2019s proposal under the pressure of  public opinion here. A recent poll for Polish daily Rzeczpospolita showed that 40.2 percent of respondents want the government to accept the German offer, 28.6 percent of the polled believe NATO member states should decide together where to deploy the launchers, and only 12.5 percent say the Patriots should be sent to Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Polish leaders had dithered
