Poland blindsided as US troop rotation gets abruptly paused
TL;DR Summary
Poland was blindsided by the U.S. decision to suspend a planned rotation of more than 4,000 troops, after a warning reportedly reached Gen. Wiesław Kukuła days earlier but was stuck in a classified email; Polish leaders learned of the change from media reports, while the Pentagon framed the move as a careful, non-permanent adjustment and not a reduction of overall U.S. forces in Poland.
