Safety.

That's because the USA designers love redundancy in Nuclear Power Plants. The entire idea from the start has been to make it as difficult as possible to cause damage. This would be helpful for Poland as Russia likes to attack it's neighbors.

The sweetener is that we have the weapons and the political will to give them (or use them directly) to defend Poland from Russia. I think that they are fully aware that good relations with the US may be a matter of national survival.

You’re an idiot. They’re part of NATO. US aircraft would be over Poland in minutes after an attack (they’re literally stationed there), troops deployed in hours. God the armchair general bullshit on this site gets old.

They certainly will as they are both members of NATO.

Poland has had a long and strong relationship with the US.

We already have numerous American military bases here. Some of which are permanent. We already have hundreds of American troops here.

I've met some of them myself, I've driven past American convoys that have fallen off the side of the roads. It wasn't that long ago when an American convoy fell off the side of the road and dropped a fuck ton of grenades, which took them hours to find and clean up.

That they're American. I don't remember any post-1989 government that wouldn't more or less pro-American.
