MOSCOW, March 11. /TASS/. The US has deployed more than 10,000 servicemen in Poland, the US ambassador to Warsaw, Mark Brzezinski, said in an interview with the PAP news agency.
"At the moment, more than 10,000 US soldiers are stationed throughout Poland. They are training and participating in exercises together with the Polish Army," the diplomat said.
He also said US-supplied Abrams tanks, F-16 fighter jets and HIMARS units are "very important for the defense capability of Poland and the [North Atlantic] Alliance."
