Polish president’s office criticises government for rejecting hosting of allied nuclear weapons

Poland's Deputy Defense Minister Paweł Zalewski stated that the country does not wish to host U.S. nuclear warheads on its territory, sparking controversy between his government and the office of President Karol Nawrocki, who is aligned with the opposition. Zalewski emphasized Poland's desire to remain part of NATO's nuclear deterrence program without hosting actual warheads. This stance drew criticism from the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party, which argues that not hosting nuclear weapons undermines NATO's deterrent effect against Russia. Retired military officials also expressed concerns, claiming that Poland's refusal to host nuclear weapons could weaken deterrence efforts. The debate highlights differing views within Poland on the role of nuclear weapons in national security strategy.
