"Poland and Germany signed a new defence cooperation agreement in Warsaw on 18 June 2026, replacing the 2011 framework. The document covers practical cooperation in military mobility, logistics, the Baltic Sea, cyber defence, space, and critical infrastructure protection. It does not include bilateral security guarantees beyond NATO and EU commitments, requires no ratification, and does not provide for a permanent German military presence in Poland. German engineering units may support Poland's East Shield programme. The agreement's value depends on implementation."
