A group of Young Socialists is demonstrating against the stationing of Patriot missiles in northern Poland.
The protest comes after what the group believes to be a hasty and uninformed decision by local authorities to allow the Patriot batteries to be stationed in Morag.
“We are against the continuing vassalisation [sic] of Poland to the United States,” the group has said, adding that they do not want Poland to be “another base of American imperialism and militarism.”
According to Defence Minister Bogdan Klich, the American-staffed missile base is to commence operations on Monday.
In the future, the base in Morag may host a battery of SM-3 rockets as part of the US missile defence shield. (jb)
