WASHINGTON — The United States plans to send an additional 1,000 troops to Poland to help enhance that country’s ability to defend itself amid fears of Russian aggression in Eastern Europe, a U.S. official said Tuesday.
There are about 4,500 American troops in Poland now on a rotational basis, according to the official, and the additional 1,000 servicemembers will be sent to “enhance mutual interoperability†between the two militaries.
