US President Donald Trump confirmed today that his country will keep its forces in Poland with readiness to increase their number, emphasizing that Washington will help Warsaw protect itself.

This came during Trump’s reception of Polish President Karol Nawrocki at the White House.

Trump added: We stand with Poland with all our might, and we will help it protect itself, according to Euronews.

Trump, who took the unusual step of publicly supporting Nawrocki in the recent elections, said that US-Polish relations “have always been strong but are now better than ever.”

He praised Nawrocki’s victory, considering that he “easily won a tough electoral race and became more popular over time.”

For his part, Nawrocki thanked Trump for his support and sent a special greeting to the millions of Americans of Polish descent, affirming that the ties between the two countries are based on shared values such as independence and democracy.
