Trump meeting President Duda: 'We're behind Poland'

STORY: Duda, whose term in office expires in 2025, was one of Trump's preferred international partners during his 2017-2021 presidency and they have described themselves as friends.

In contrast, many other European leaders have long been nervous that a second Trump presidency would mean decreased U.S. support for Poland's eastern neighbor Ukraine and for the NATO military alliance.

The Trump campaign said in a readout of the meeting that they had discussed a proposal from Duda that NATO members spend at least 3% of their gross domestic product (GDP) on defence. The current minimum target is 2%.
