US EditionHow ordinary Poles are preparing for a Russian invasion
- Ordinary Poles attend a Saturday military training programme called "Train with the Army" near Wroclaw to prepare for a possible Russian attack in 2025.
- Poland's location bordering Russia and Ukraine, alongside rising geopolitical tension and statements by US officials, have prompted heightened defence measures.
- The programme offers civilians instruction in close-quarters combat, emergency medical skills, firearms, and gas mask use, with the Polish government intending to broaden it so that all adult men across the country receive this training.
- Poland allocates nearly 5% of its GDP to defense, fields a military force of approximately 216,000 personnel, and Prime Minister Tusk has expressed the goal of creating the most powerful armed forces in the region.
- Despite extensive preparations, polls show only about 10.7% would volunteer to fight, while a third of adults might flee, indicating mixed public readiness.
