Republicans lost the Congressional elections. Mariusz Błaszczak: A permanent US base in Poland will not be established

The recent midterm elections in the U.S. resulted in a significant victory for the Democratic Party, gaining control of both chambers of Congress. This outcome has raised concerns in Poland regarding the future of U.S. military bases, particularly the proposed 'Fort Trump'. Polish officials, including PiS vice president Mariusz Błaszczak, expressed fears that the Democratic majority could negatively impact U.S.-Poland relations and military presence. Błaszczak noted that the opportunity for a permanent U.S. base in Poland may have been squandered due to previous Polish government actions. He also predicted potential impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump, which could further complicate military cooperation.
