Poland will not send its troops to Iran, Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced before Tuesday’s cabinet meeting. He added that Poland has other tasks within NATO, and that our allies understand this position.

"This conflict does not directly affect our security," the head of government stated, adding that the decision not to send troops to Iran applies to "our land, air, and naval forces," which, as he noted, are "still under construction."

"What we have at our disposal regarding the sea must serve the security of the Baltic, and our allies—including the Americans—understand this very well," he added, noting that "there is no reason for concern."

Tusk on SAFE: There Will Be No Problems

The Prime Minister also addressed the implementation of the EU’s SAFE armament loan program. Last week, President Karol Nawrocki announced that he would veto the bill regarding this mechanism. In response, the government adopted a resolution to implement the "Armed Poland" (Poland Armed) program instead.

"There will be no problems regarding our partners. Everyone understands what happened in Poland. The ‘Armed Poland’ program will be implemented, and these loans will flow to Poland," the head of government said.

He also thanked Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz for his "work toward a swift resolution" of what he called an "unnecessary crisis caused by the position of the President and the opposition."

Trump’s Appeal Regarding the Strait of Hormuz

Since February 28, the USA and Israel have been bombing Iran, which has responded by attacking Israel and Persian Gulf states, striking both American bases located there and civilian targets. Iran has also blocked the Strait of Hormuz—a key route for the oil trade—leading to a sharp increase in crude oil prices on global markets.

U.S. President Donald Trump has called for other nations to join the operation aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz. He also threatened consequences for NATO.
