Poland asks the US to give it access to nuclear weapons: this is possible within the framework of the NATO agreement
Poland is in talks with the United States to participate in a nuclear sharing program to counter growing threats to Russia, reports Ukrainian Truth.
Andrzej Duda, President of Poland, told Gazeta Polska newspaper about this.
«Первая проблема заключается в том, что у нас нет ядерного оружия. Нет никаких признаков того, что мы, как Польша, получим его в наши руки в ближайшем будущем. Всегда есть потенциальная возможность принять участие в программе совместного использования ядерного вооружения. Мы говорили с американскими лидерами о том, рассматривают ли Соединенные Штаты такую возможность. Тема открыта», — сказал Анджей Дуда.

The Nuclear Sharing Program is part of NATO's nuclear deterrence policy, which allows member countries that do not have such weapons to participate in the planning of their use.
This program does not expand the group of countries with nuclear weapons. There are now three such countries in NATO: the USA, Great Britain and France. Only the States provided their weapons to other states under the program.
As part of the program, the participating countries consult and make joint decisions on nuclear weapons policy, maintain technical equipment (including aircraft capable of carrying nuclear weapons) necessary for the use of nuclear weapons, and store nuclear weapons on their territory.
As reported, the Pentagon does not have information confirming the report that Russia can transport tactical nuclear weapons by rail.
