The Polish army needs to be increased at least twice. This statement was made by Minister of Defense Mariusz Blaszczak in an interview with Polish Radio.

In Poland, they expressed a desire to double the country's armed forces




According to the head of the Polish defense department, at present, the number of armed forces of the country is 100 thousand troops, but twice as much is needed to ensure the national security of the country. The increase of the Polish army is one of the priorities of the Ministry of Defense of the country.

We should have at least 200 thousand. I am convinced that the Polish army should have even more soldiers, because this will be a guarantee of security

- said Blaschak.

The head of the military department recalled that in Poland since last year, the Become a Soldier of the Republic program has been operating, which aims to attract citizens of the republic, especially youth, to serve in the army. This company should help achieve the "right number" of military personnel.

In addition to the desire to increase its own armed forces, Warsaw simultaneously wants to increase the American military contingent. Earlier it was reported that in Poland they intend to create a joint training center with the United States and additionally deploy thousands of American troops around 1.

      What for? It is enough to issue a Pole card for a Ukrainian so that he can serve in the Polish Armed Forces, and at the end receive a Polish passport. All in profit:
      1. Ukrainians are integrated into Europe, as they dreamed on the Maidan: to assimilate in Western Civilization. It doesn’t matter which country. The main thing is the West.
      2. Poland is increasing its armed forces while not burdening its budget with the prospect of absorbing Galicia if the collective West gives a green light.

          I wrote from the point of view of the world outlook of Ukrainians. The fact that Romania will never live like Poland and Poland like Germany and Germany like Holland is a well-known fact of the Western food chain. Hence the dreams of Ukrainians about the collapse of Russia in order to parasitize on its remains, and become an intermediate food block. There, even in Ukraine, they say: "It would be great if there were one more country between Russia and Ukraine, then we would prosper!"

              In Poland, the terms for repayment of debt on foreign loans to the West are suitable.
              Apparently, there is nothing to pay off loans from "Great Great" Poland, and the Polish authorities themselves are probably not willing to pay off.
              The Poles will, as before in Polish history, pay their Western creditors with their Polish human kind, and soldiers in the first place as well.

              TOTAL As Washington will tell the leaders of bourgeois Poland under the United States to lie down, so they will lie down - if only for the abstruse Polish Nazis in the Polish government there would be, is and remains a benefit in your pocket!

        Not everything works out. Aircraft is 2 times more, money for aircraft is 2 times more. With cannon fodder - okay.

        The Poles are afraid of Moscow. The Poles write about the future. All the same, they will go to Lviv. They have no other options. Check out their views on the future here.
        countries of the "new Europe", including Poland, will be settled by migrants from the east, primarily from a dying Ukraine divided into parts.

        The countries of the “New Europe” will be able to protect themselves from immigrants from Africa and Asia, and mass exodus from the territory of modern Ukraine, which by then ceases to exist in the borders that appeared after the collapse of the Soviet Union, will help them compensate for the shortage of labor (however, we already observe this ) There will also be a re-slavization of the Baltic countries, and Poland will become the main “recipient” of migrants, which has a chance to achieve peaceful (although not too deep) assimilation of guests from Ukraine, from Belarus and ... Lithuania, where the Polish and Belarusian minorities may even become the majority.

    If you throw away all the jokes and approach objectively, then an increase in the Polish army by half indicates the potential of a country capable of supporting such an army. They have no issues with the deployment of additional troops. There remained full of ours and German, once abandoned towns, airfields, training grounds, etc. empty to this day. According to my observations (topics of the Polish Armed Forces), the forum did not meet articles of a complete objective analysis of the reasons for the aspiration of such a large set of troops. In the end, usually it all comes down to the fact that they are so stupid there, they don’t know what they are doing, etc. in that spirit. A real treasure trove of patriotic posts. Meanwhile, the figure is serious and not sucked out of the finger. Yes, the economy allows them to do this. The standard of living there is higher. This is a fact and you can not argue with that. Well, only by what timeline do they plan to complete this and what to equip?
