Poland will not send troops to Iran, Tusk says

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has confirmed that Poland will not deploy its forces to Iran.

Axar.az reports, citing Polish media, speaking at a government meeting, he emphasized that the Polish Armed Forces have other priorities within NATO.

“Poland will not send troops to Iran. This conflict does not directly concern our national security. Poland has different responsibilities under NATO, including land, air, and naval forces,” Tusk said.

He added that allies, including the United States, understand Warsaw’s position and there is no reason for concern. The government does not foresee any expedition toward Iran, and this stance has not raised objections from Poland’s allies.

Earlier, the United States called on NATO allies to assist in reopening the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, which handles one-fifth of global oil shipments. Iran blocked the strait in retaliation for the U.S.-Israeli operation against the country. While President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for allied involvement, Poland and several other NATO members, including Spain, have expressed reluctance to participate.

Trump warned that countries unwilling to fully cooperate with the U.S. might see restrictions on American support. Spain, which voiced the strongest opposition, is reportedly facing potential trade consequences.
