WARSAW -- Poland's foreign minister said the government would not interfere if the U.S. administration sought a different country to accept part of a missile defense system.
"From what I know, it would be less advantageous, but undoubtedly possible" to place a base elsewhere, Radoslaw Sikorski said Friday on Polish state Radio 1.
Warsaw and Washington have been locked in protracted negotiations over a U.S. request to place 10 interceptor missiles in northern Poland as part of protection for Europe and North America against possible attacks from unpredictable nations. Citing vehement Russian protests against the plans, Poland is demanding a significant U.S. contribution toward upgrading its defenses in exchange.
