REDZIKOWO, Poland: Polish and American officials on Wednesday opened a US missile base in northern Poland originally intended to defend the West against threats from the Middle East, but now aimed at confronting Russia.
The Redzikowo base, 230-kms from the Russian border, has been operational since July but was officially inaugurated only on Wednesday.
“A US destroyer on Polish soil has become a fact,” Polish Defence Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, describing it as “of historical importance for the security of Poland, the United States and Nato.”
