Poland President Andrig Doda said on Tuesday that he had received guarantees that Washington will not reduce its presence in Poland and other places along the eastern side of NATO.

His administration’s position raised questions in the region about whether Washington will maintain its long obligations to NATO partners.
“There are no concerns that the United States will reduce its level in our country, and that the United States will withdraw in any way responsibility or shared responsibility for the security of this part of Europe,” Doda told reporters in Warsaw.
