Polish officials said the U.S. will resume a rotational troop presence after a pause that drew criticism from lawmakers.
- On Monday, Polish Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz announced that the United States will resume rotational troop deployments to Poland in the coming weeks, reversing a Pentagon pause implemented earlier this year.

- President Donald Trump previously pledged 5,000 troops to Poland, but foreign policy adviser Marcin Przydacz to Polish President Karol Nawrocki suggested these may replace existing forces rather than expand the current headcount.
