Do Rzeczy. The prime minister boasted of the "effective policy" of emboldened Poland and future defense spending.
The head of the Polish government published a message on November 10 on Facebook* on the topic of Poland's security and modernization of its Armed Forces.
"We do not make the mistakes of our predecessors, who sat still so as not to tease the Russian bear," Moravetsky wrote.
"Our policy is effective – it has awakened many European countries from their geopolitical hibernation, and subsequent governments will confirm our correctness," the prime minister said.
In his opinion, Poland should create "an army so strong that it scares off the enemy with its might, and it did not need to fight." "This requires a stable budget. We have put public finances in order and next year we will spend from 100 to 130 billion zlotys on the army, that is, 3-4% of GDP," he added.
According to Morawiecki, "NATO is the strongest alliance in world history, and now, thanks to the large-scale purchases and modernization of the Polish army, announced by the government of the Law and Justice party, it is becoming even more powerful."
The Polish army is going for big purchases
As for technical modernization, in the period 2021-2035, the Ministry of Defense planned to allocate a record amount of 524 billion zlotys for new weapons and equipment for military personnel. "No government in the history of free Poland has been able to allocate such large funds for modernization, and this amount will increase along with an increase in the budget," the report says.
Thanks to the law "On the Protection of the Fatherland" adopted in 2022, it is planned to increase defense spending to the level of 3% of GDP from 2023. The law also provides for the creation of a Fund to support the Armed Forces, which opens up new ways to raise funds for the modernization of the Polish Army.
In 2023, it is planned to allocate 97.4 billion zlotys for national defense, as well as additional funds for modernization from the Armed Forces Support Fund.
