The United States is set to officially inaugurate a new air defense base in northern Poland on Wednesday, underscoring the strength of the Polish-American military alliance, particularly as Poland seeks to reassure its citizens amid uncertainties following Donald Trump’s presidential election victory.
Located in Redzikowo, a town near the Baltic coast, the base has been in development since the early 2000s.
Polish officials have emphasised that the completion of this base signals a continued commitment to NATO’s security guarantees, regardless of changes in U.S. leadership.
“It took a while, but this construction proves the geostrategic resolve of the United States,” said Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski in a video posted to X on Tuesday. “The Polish-American alliance is strong, regardless of who governs in Warsaw and Washington.”
Polish President Andrzej Duda, a conservative leader who has cultivated strong ties with Trump, is set to attend the base’s opening ceremony.
Duda, who has previously emphasized the importance of Poland’s relationship with the U.S., confirmed that Trump had reached out to him with greetings on Polish Independence Day. “President Trump called me to wish Poland well on our Independence Day,” Duda said.
The opening of the Redzikowo base comes at a time when some NATO members remain wary of Trump’s past remarks, which suggested that the United States might not defend NATO allies who fail to meet defense spending targets.
However, Poland’s defense spending is the highest in the alliance relative to the size of its economy, a fact that Polish officials believe ensures the country’s security is well-guarded.
The base, known as Aegis Ashore, forms part of NATO’s broader missile defense shield, designed to intercept short- to intermediate-range ballistic missiles.
The system includes another Aegis Ashore site in Romania, U.S. Navy destroyers based in Spain’s Rota port, and an early-warning radar station in Turkey’s Kurecik.
Despite this, Russian and Belarusian officials have expressed concerns about the new NATO base, which they claim could be a security threat.
Russia has long criticised the planned base, with officials labeling it a potential risk as early as 2007 when the base was still in development.
NATO, however, insisted that the missile shield is purely defensive in nature and intended to counter potential threats, particularly from non-NATO countries.
An analyst at the think tank Polityka Insight, Marek Swierczynski, described the Redzikowo base as a “relic of a previous era,” originally designed with the threat of Iran in mind rather than the more immediate concerns posed by Russia today.
Despite this, Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz argued that the scope of NATO’s missile shield should be expanded. “We will discuss this expansion with NATO and the United States,” he said on Monday.
Later on Wednesday, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte is scheduled to meet with President Duda and Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Warsaw to discuss the alliance’s ongoing defense strategy and Poland’s role in it.
