WASHINGTON (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 09th December, 2021) US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley met with Polish Chief of the General Staff Gen. Rajmund Andrzejczak at the Pentagon on Wednesday to discuss security in Eastern Europe, Joint Staff Spokesperson Col. Dave Butler said in a readout.
"The military leaders discussed items of mutual interest and shared assessments of the current security environment in Eastern Europe.
Poland is a stalwart ally in Central Europe committed to NATO deterrence and defense efforts in Europe and cooperative security efforts around the world," Butler said.
