Polonia construiește cea mai mare armată terestră din Europa. Producția de arme, mutată mai aproape de casă • Newsweek România
Poland is rapidly building the largest ground army in Europe while shifting its arms production closer to home. The country aims to reduce reliance on distant suppliers by investing heavily in domestic and regional manufacturing of weapons, ammunition, and drones. This strategy is influenced by lessons learned from the Ukraine war, emphasizing the need for quick supply in high-intensity conflicts. Poland's defense spending has surged, with a projected budget of approximately 53 billion euros for this year, reflecting a significant increase in local procurement. The move also opens the market to Central European manufacturers, enhancing regional cooperation and independence in defense supply chains.
