President Duda says Poland ready to host nuclear weapons

Poland is open to hosting nuclear weapons from NATO allies, President Andrzej Duda said on Monday. Duda made the comments in an interview published Monday in the Polish tabloid Fakt.

"If there were a decision by our allies to deploy nuclear weapons within the nuclear sharing also on our territory in order to strengthen the security of NATO's eastern flank, we are ready," Duda said.

However, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has called for further details from Duda. "This idea is absolutely massive, I would say, and very serious."
