Poland to withdraw from Visegrad defense radar project?
The Financial Times reports:
Poland is considering to pull out of a joint defense project with its central European allies.
The Visegrad Group – comprising Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland – had planned to jointly develop a new mobile air defence radar system to replace outdated Cold War kit. But the project has been cast into doubt by the likely withdrawal of Poland, which decided this week to leave the talks, according to two people with knowledge of the decision. Warsaw has concluded that the other, smaller members of the group have little to contribute as it looks to modernise its military and its defence industry
Its withdrawal would be a blow to collaboration efforts at a time when security fears in the region are rising.
