Poland rejects US nuclear warheads on its soil despite NATO deterrence support

Poland has stated it will not allow American nuclear warheads to be stationed on its territory, even as it supports NATO's broader nuclear deterrence efforts. The position aligns with Cold War-era nuclear sharing arrangements that have long governed NATO's approach to nuclear deployment. Currently, the US maintains nuclear weapons in five other NATO member states. Poland is not opposed to a stronger American military presence in the region and continues to advocate for deeper security cooperation within the alliance.
