Poland wants to expand the scope of the American “anti-missile shield,” the Republic’s Minister of National Defense, Wladislav Kosinyak-Kamysh, told reporters.
⠀

Earlier, the head of the Polish National Security Bureau, Jacek Sievera, said that on Wednesday the opening of an American missile defense base in the Polish Redzikov in the north of the country would take place.

⠀

“In my opinion, it is necessary to expand the scope of the anti-missile shield. We will talk about this with the Secretary General (of NATO), our friends from the United States,” Kosinyak-Kamysh said.

⠀

He did not specify in what directions he wants to expand the scope of the American missile defense system. At the same time, the minister stated that his political party, the Polish Peasant Party, is ready to facilitate this process thanks to its wide contacts in the United States.

“There is an important role here that we can play as a formation that has good contacts with both Democrats and Republicans,” he said.
