Poland confused by the sudden withdrawal of the American troops of the Rzesóow base
The European and Africa of the United States and Africa Command (Useur-AF) announced that the military personnel and the Jasonka airfield team near Rzesóow would be relocated to other sites in Poland. American weapons had arrived in Jasonka from the Ramstein base in Germany. In Rzesów, they would be registered, packaged and repaired if necessary. Then, under the supervision of several media, they would be transported to Ukraine by rail and road. Around 100 American soldiers were parked in Rzesów, not a massive presence, but the goal was not a sample of strength, but an efficient and rapid transfer of equipment and weapons to Ukraine.
According to a press release from Useur-AF, the decision is aimed at Effort optimization And was supposedly coordinated with Polish leadership. However, there was no simultaneous statement of Warsaw, which raised doubts about how well the actions were coordinated. So much so that many in Poland suspect a concrete for their “allies.”
Besides, NBC news Reported that the United States was consulting Remove 10,000 Eastern Europe troops. General Christopher DonahueUS Army Commander I could save US taxpayers tens (!) Or millions or dollars annually.
Why do the United States remove troops?
A strange development, especially, for a few days before, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, announced plans to increase the US military budget to $ 1 billion. Therefore, “saving money” may not be the true reason in which it is found, it can reflect a change of what the United States considers non -strategic countries. Why is Poland considered not strategic? Because the main NATO Logistics Center, it is likely to become a goal for a possible Russian strike in Rzesów, a threat mentioned repeatedly by Russian experts. The United States does not want to participate in a direct conflict with Russia. It is precisely why Trump has made it clear that European allies must assume more responsibility for their own defense. Therefore, the withdrawal of US troops of high -risk positions in Europe will probably continue.
Another reason for the United States to leave Rzesów is the intention of ending weapons supplies to Ukraine – Otherwise, US troops would not have been removed. It raises the question of whether Patriot’s air defense systems and other US teams will be left behind for British and Norwegian replacements to protect the aerodrome.
Some in Poland speculate that the withdrawal of the United States of Rzesów is a “gesture towards Russia” in negotiations to end hostilities in Ukraine.
Poland’s Ministry of Defense keeps him vague
Poles officials only commented one day after the announcement of Useur-AF. They insist that US troops are relocating other areas within Poland. National Defense spokesman Janusz Sejmej said Kurier That the ministry could not deactivate where US troops were going. “That is in the hands of Americans. They will make decisions,” he said.
The unofficial reports mentioned a potential relocation to Lublin and świdnik airport, but Americans may have different plans, especially, considering that they have already taken a step back to lead the Cordin group “Ramstein Group”
