That was especially the case when the right-wing Law and Justice party, which backs Duda, was in charge of the Cabinet and held the prime minister\u2019s office. During the Trump administration, like-minded leaders in Warsaw sought to capitalize on Trump\u2019s disdain for Europe, and Germany in particular, offering to host U.S. assets and withdrawn from elsewhere on the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tusk, who came to power when his Civic Coalition alliance and its partners won the general election last fall, has said he wants to repair Poland\u2019s ties to the European Union and NATO. In that context, any discussions about altering the alliance\u2019s atomic umbrella would be held by all member nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NATO\u2019s nuclear-sharing arrangement entails select countries in Europe storing American atomic bombs that they would mount on their own jets and deploy in the case of nuclear war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The alliance\u2019s Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg put cold water on the idea of Poland becoming part of the mix when asked by reporters during an April 23 visit to Warsaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere are no plans to expand the NATO sharing arrangements, no plans to deploy any more nuclear weapons in any additional NATO countries,\u201d Stoltenberg said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The issue came up in Berlin the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A report by public broadcaster ZDF summarized the responses of two government spokespersons in a press conference in the German capital as favorable to the prospect of nuclear weapons on Polish soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defence later told Defense News the positive reaction was not aimed specifically at the nuclear question, but rather a general comment on Poland\u2019s commitment to strengthening the European Union and NATO, and Tusk\u2019s plans to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2024\/04\/17\/poland-to-join-european-sky-shield-scheme-following-thaw-with-berlin\/\">partake in the Germany-led European Sky Shield initiative (ESSI)<\/a>, in particular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Polish prime minister reiterated his country\u2019s interest in joining the ESSI scheme earlier this week during a joint appearance here with Stoltenberg and U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. He also pledged to collaborate with Britain as part of its air defense-focused Delivering Integrated Air and Missile Operational Networked Defences (DIAMOND) initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are intensively cooperating [with the U.K.] as part of the British DIAMOND initiative which also serves our security, including our air security,\u201d Tusk said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland\u2019s&nbsp;Narew short-range air defense system is based on MBDA\u2019s extended-range variant of the Common Anti-Air Modular Missile, a weapon jointly developed by the U.K. and Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Presented by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in August 2022 in reaction to Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, the ESSI project now includes more than 20 countries. The program\u2019s objectives comprise enhancing the interoperability of air defense systems and streamlining joint procurement of capabilities across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
