Poland plans to fund up to 170 billion zloty (about $4.4bn) for a proposed permanent US military base, which could be operational as early as 2029. Warsaw says it is close to an agreement with Washington to deploy permanent US forces; Polish security officials say talks envisage roughly 5,000 permanently stationed troops. President said the facility would be named 'Trumpfort' if an agreement is finalized. Polish ministers have previously said the planned site could accommodate about 10,000 troops; current US rotational forces in Poland total roughly 7,000.
