“Poles will be air policing over the Balkans, in Bulgaria and Romania,” said Tomasz Szatkowski, Poland’s deputy defence minister.
“It's a foregone conclusion, now we are simply wrapping up the details,” Szatkowski added.
He said that taking part in the mission is a way of showing that Poland not only aims to protect its own security but also that of its NATO partners. (rg/pk)
