Presidents of the United States and Poland discussed in Washington plans for the placement of systems in Europe

Negotiations of the Presidents of the United States and Poland George Bush and Lech Kachinsky took place on Monday in the White House in Washington. The central theme on them was the proposed placement by an element of the American Pro on the territory of Poland. According to the presidents, these plans are purely defensive.

“We discussed how we can improve the military security system,” Bush said at the end of a meeting that lasted almost an hour. “Nothing indicates better than our desire for peace and security than our work on a missile defense.”

“The problem of the missile shield occupied most of our conversation. We agreed that these are purely defensive weapons directed against the regimes that are considered irresponsible,” Kaczynsky, in turn, said, who is quoted by Interfax.

The Pro system, according to Bush, is "the best symbol of our desire to work in the name of peace and security." According to the American president, this system "will ensure that Europe security" from the missile threat from "those parts of the world, whose leaders do not particularly share our lifestyle and ... try to develop a threat of weapons of mass destruction."

Lech Kachinsky said that "purpose (pro) is the protection of our democracies from those countries that can or already have nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction." President of Poland said he hopes "for successful bringing to the end of the entire project."

At the meeting, the presidents also raised the issues of simplifying the rules for issuing American visas to Poland citizens, as well as the prospects for further cooperation in the field of defense policy, which will be discussed both at the level of ministers of the defense of the two countries and at the expert level, ITAR-TASS reports.

It is expected that Poland will agree with a proposal to place ten installations-overlarships of missiles on its territory. At the same time, both in Warsaw and in Washington, they insist that the elements of the US missile defense system are directed primarily against North Korea and Iran.
