Monday's media review; And if they scope our border? How much do we pay for allies over the Vistula River?

**Maciej Miłosz: Rzeczpospolita:“Over PLN 800 million for the presence of allies on the Vistula River”**
"In the last 5 years we have spent PLN 831 million to keep alliance troops in Poland. The most money went for fuel. The Polish army presently has almost 150 1000 professional soldiers, and more than 50 1000 in the Territorial Military Service (WOT) and Voluntary Basic Professional Service (DZW). In total, well over 200,000 people. In addition, about 10,000 allies of armed forces from another countries are presently in our territory. These are military men from the United States, large Britain, France, the Czech Republic, Romania, Canada, Estonia, Croatia and Jordan. There are definitely most American soldiers in Poland. Their presence on the Vistula River began to grow rapidly since 2016, erstwhile at the NATO summit in Warsaw it was decided that in Poland and Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, allied conflict groups would be formed, each with about a 1000 soldiers. This group in Orzysz is co-founded by the British and Croatian Americans and Poles. In early 2017, the Americans besides sent over the Vistula the alleged ABCT - an armored brigade combat group, or over 4,000 soldiers with dense equipment. Another U.S. brigade landed in early 2022 due to Russia's aggression into Ukraine, and is mostly liable for safety of the airport in Rzeszów. Today, it is about 9,000 soldiers, but as late acknowledged by US Ambassador Mark Brzeziński at a gathering at the Atlantic Council, during the last 3 patches there were moments that these American soldiers in Poland were even over 13,000. 1 can guess that this was during the rotation, erstwhile it was made on a tab - i.e. first those who started their stay came to Poland, and then those who finished their tour left. It is worth noting that the character of an allied presence is besides changing. In 2020, the 5th U.S. Army Corps, which was officially named Camp Kościuszko, was established in Poznań. Mark Brzeziński speaks of this unit as the first permanent U.S. base in Poland, although looking at the installations of the Aegis Ashore rocket strategy in Redzikow, 1 can have the impression that this kind of installation is already more. In addition to Americans in fresh years, the British have besides been peculiarly active on the Vistula River, who have supported our soldiers, among others, through the Sky Sabre rocket system, but besides their bomb squads have helped build a barrier on the east border. Exotic may seem that we have soldiers from Jordan, but we request to know that soldiers from this country have worked with Polish peculiar forces for years.”
