Problems with the timely implementation of projects funded by SAFE. Poland wants to extend the deadlines
Poland is negotiating the deadline for arms projects funded by SAFE loans, which is set for 2030. The Supreme Audit Office warns of financial stability risks due to the lack of a repayment strategy for these loans. Additionally, there are infrastructure challenges linked to the implementation of multi-billion contracts. Poland has secured €43.7 billion from SAFE, the highest in the EU, but faces pressure to ensure timely delivery of military equipment. The government is also advocating for more openness to American partners in defense projects, amid concerns about the capacity of European defense industries.
