Patriot Deployment Site in Poland Revealed

January 21, 2010 :: Washington Times :: News

In early December, Poland and the U.S. signed an initial agreement to deploy Patriot missile defense batteries in the coming years. It wasn't until yesterday that the site was revealed to be Morag, about 30 miles southeast of the Baltic Sea and 40 miles southwest of the Russian city of Kaliningrad. The choice of site is said to have everything to do with infrastructure and nothing to do with Russia.

More Russian surface ships, submarines, and aircraft will be deployed to the region, according Ria Novosti(Article)
