Germany will send troops to Poland

13.12.2025 18:20 | Category World

Germany has announced that it will send a group of troops to Poland to support a plan to strengthen the country's eastern border, amid growing concern over a threat from Russia, AFP reports.

Poland, which actively supports Ukraine in its fight against Russia, announced plans last May to fortify a long stretch of its border that includes Belarus and the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad.

The main task of the German soldiers in Poland will be "engineering works", the representative of the Ministry of Defense announced in Berlin on Friday evening.

That could include "building fortifications, digging trenches, laying barbed wire or installing anti-tank barriers," he said. The representative of the department did not specify the exact number of troops involved, only saying that it would be "an average double-digit number". They are expected to participate in the program from the second quarter of 2026 until the end of 2027.

The press secretary of the Ministry of Defense emphasized that the approval of the Parliament is not required for the deployment, because "there is no immediate danger for the soldiers as a result of military conflicts."

Except in some cases, the German parliament must approve the deployment of the country's armed forces abroad.
