Poland and France to deepen defence ties amid doubts over Washington's support
- On May 9, 2025, in Nancy, France, the leaders of France and Poland finalized a treaty to strengthen their partnership, emphasizing collaboration in defense and energy sectors.
- The treaty responds to growing doubts about the long-term U.S. Security commitment to Europe amid tensions from Russia's invasion of Ukraine and shifting political dynamics.
- The agreement includes mutual defense clauses, deeper military integration, increased cooperation on nuclear energy, and plans for joint armament projects and exercises between France and Poland.
- Poland, which spends over 4% of its GDP on defense and aims to expand its army to 300,000 troops by 2035, sees the treaty as a way to receive potential French nuclear protection, with Tusk calling it 'game-changer' and 'historic'.
- The treaty symbolizes a strategic shift toward stronger European defense autonomy and signals enhanced Franco-Polish cooperation amid evolving European security challenges and U.S. Policy uncertainty.
