U.S. President Donald Trump surprised NATO allies by pledging to send an additional 5,000 troops to Poland, only hours before Secretary of State Marco Rubio was to meet alliance ministers in Sweden on Friday amid deep divisions over the Iran war. Trump, in a Truth Social post, cited his relationship with Poland's conservative nationalist president, Karol Nawrocki, as the reason behind his decision to send additional troops. "Based on the successful election of the now president of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, who I was proud to Endorse — and our relationship with him — I am pleased to announce that the United States will be sending an additional 5,000 Troops to Poland," Trump said in the post. NATO's chief Mark Rutte said on Friday he welcomed the announcement while the Polish foreign minister said on Friday, the number of United States troops in Poland will be kept, "more-or-less, at previous levels."
