Poland is offering to pay the United States $15,000 a year for every American service member stationed on Polish territory, on top of covering infrastructure costs, according to Polish Deputy Defense Minister Paweł Zalewski. The offer underscores Warsaw's push to deepen the American military presence in the country amid ongoing security concerns on NATO's eastern flank.
