  4. Of course it is the president not goverment but still…
    I.agine saying we attack Ukraine so Nato wont be a thread and the result is Nato starting to go full balls to the wall towards the east.

  7. Actually, that’s ready a thing, it’s called [nuclear sharing](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_sharing)

    Nuclear sharing is a concept in NATO’s policy of nuclear deterrence, which allows member countries without nuclear weapons of their own to participate in the planning for the use of nuclear weapons by NATO. In particular, it provides for involvement of the armed forces of those countries in delivering nuclear weapons in the event of their use

    As of November 2009, Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Turkey have been hosting U.S. nuclear weapons as part of NATO’s nuclear sharing policy

    In case of war, the United States has told NATO allies the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) would no longer be in effect

    So I don’t really see this as not a feasible thing. Rather more a political decision of whether nukes so close to Russia would be an escalation. Then again, Russia deployed its nukes in Belarus, so it might be a symmetrical move.

  8. I assure you all, there is a number of counties that realized they need to get under other countries nuclear umbrella or get nukes themselves.

  9. It seems to me this guy is pretty shady when it comes to domestic politics but pretty okay when it comes to foreign politics?

  10. How does nuclear sharing work? Do host countries have the ability to use the nukes by themselves, or launch codes are still in the US? If it’s the latter, the whole thing is pretty pointless.

  12. And he says this why?

    EDIT: got it; thanks for the replies

  13. I think that he should be more careful with such sentences so that the airplane doesn’t stall again during the landing approach.

  15. Then Poland’s leader is a lizard from space. This will endanger the safety of the Polish people.

    >The president said the topic of placing U.S. nuclear weapons in Poland “has been a topic of Polish-American talks for some time.”

    As usual, this means the US government has been manipulatively deceiving US citizens on this issue with repeated denials about AEGIS Ashore’s capabilities and purpose or their general intent with presence in Poland (e.g.: focused on “Iran.”) It’s undemocratic fascist nuclear terrorism. Again.

  18. Somewhere in a Ruzzian cold dungeon Medvedev wakes up suddenly – Finally! Someone who can speak nuclear!

  21. Also, polish president didn’t consult this with any polish government official so it’s just him being a turd

  24. Well it woud be pretty stupid to store US nuclear weapons in Poland where there are in MTBM range from Kaliningrad. There is a reason they are stored in Germany, Italy and Turkey

  25. USA, 1990s: “Ukraine doesn’t need nukes, because from now USA, as the only superstate, will guarantee that everything will be decided by International Law!”

    2024 year:

    1. WMD-Russia, with enormous help of extremely active WMD-blackmail, conducts ethnocide with elements of genocide against Ukrainians.
    2. It is allied with WMD-on-territory Belarus, WMD-North Korea, WMD (at least chemical weapons) Iran. Economic benefits from this receive WMD-China, WMD-India, WMD-on-territory Turkey.
    3. Assistance to Ukraine carried out mainly by countries which protected by WMD. And soon Ukraine will be almost completely surrounded by WMD-on-territory countries (Belarus, Russia, Turkey, Poland) and/or protected by NATO WMD.

    2024 year USA politicians, during time of destruction of old International security system based on International Law, and creation of completely new one, based on WMD: “Ukrainian war not so much important as containment of China!”

  26. The idea is on the right track, but in all honest still not ideal. The ideal (and at this point I’d say necessary) would be for Poland to have its own nuclear arsenal independent from US approval, akin to UK and France.

    This is the one surefire deterrent that can stop Russia from getting any ideas, and we already know that if they win in Ukraine Poland and the Baltic states are among the next candidates.

    Having nuclear weapons that are dependent on US approval falls once again into the current question of “can we trust USA to help in case we get attacked”. The time for Poland to have its own nuclear arsenal is way overdue if you ask me.

  27. As long as Putin and his pack is sitting on the throne, this is the only way. All he understand is force and display of power. You can’t just send a diplomat to give Pitin flowers and ask him to stop. It just doesn’t work.

    It sucks, but it is how it is.

  28. This a pretty risky sentence around what the other side understands with the word “deploy” there…

  29. Ti do what? You can’t use them, it’s just waste of money… whovever use them won’t win, will lose like everyone else… heck, not even terrorists use them how could a sane persone use them as a tool for anything?….
    Neither we nor Russia or Korea will ever use them, and if they do we all die anyway, same if we use them, so what’s the point?

  30. Then they switch back to Piss and now people who believe in the biblical end times are in charge of nuclear weapons.
