Poland says how long it will last in case of war with Russia

Poland is capable of defending itself against a possible Russian attack for one or two weeks before the arrival of NATO allied forces. The head of Poland's National Security Bureau, Dariusz Lukowski, said this in an interview with Polsat News.

He explained the situation with the "five-day ammunition stockpile" in the Polish army, emphasising that this is only part of the overall picture and the real situation depends on specific types of weapons.

Stockpile problems mainly concern outdated equipment, while modern weapon systems have more reliable supplies, Lukowski pointed out.

In addition, the official noted that Poland is actively working to strengthen its defence and has mechanisms to quickly replenish stockpiles, including exchange programmes with allies. Warsaw is confident that in the next two to three years it will be able to significantly increase its defence capabilities to fully counter a potential threat.

He also added that in the event of Russian aggression against the Baltic states, Poland would provide the necessary military assistance within the framework of the plans agreed with NATO.

Poland believes that in two years, the Polish Army will be the strongest land army in Europe. Despite Vladimir Putin's claims that Russia has "no interests" in Eastern Europe, the Polish leadership believes that the country is living in "pre-war times" and predicts the outbreak of war with Russia in the coming years.
