Major General Krzysztof Zielski emphasizes urgent preparations against potential Russian aggression by 2030, highlighting the need for extensive reforms in the Polish Armed Forces. The Technical Modernization Plan through 2039 will require significant funding, projected at one trillion złotys, while navigating rising investment costs and maintaining operational capabilities.

Poland's defense strategy is focused on addressing potential threats by 2030, necessitating a robust Technical Modernization Plan through 2039 with an estimated expenditure of one trillion złotys. The country aims to enhance its military infrastructure and logistics while reforming its command system to avoid past mistakes.
