Bix Aliu, US Embassy’s charge’d affairs confirmed “it’s not true that the US is considering withdrawing troops from Eastern NATO flank, including Poland as it was rumored a few days ago.

The American diplomat recalled that he had worked for the administration of several presidents. In his opinion, President Joe Biden has the toughest position towards Moscow.

Bix Aliu was pleased that the Allies have worked out a common approach and they will finally hold Russia accountable for the escalation. According to the US charge’d affairs, Poland is one of the US key allies on NATO’s eastern flank and it remains at the center of the NATO talks. “It is perfect that it was Warsaw that took over the chairmanship of the OSCE on January 1. I am very happy with the important role Poland”- added Aliu.

Referring to the veto of the President of Poland against the so-called LexTVN law, chargé d’affaires USA thanked President Andrzej Duda “for showing that he defends the freedom of media and business”.

Bix Aliu emphasized that the United States and Poland have had a long history of fighting together for freedom and independence, and sometimes it is natural to experience misunderstandings. “We were concerned about the freedom of the media and business, and we spoke out loud. This is what the conversation was all about. We are glad that Poland has made the right choice.”
