Poland supports the appointment of a European Union Commissioner for Defense and the allocation of €100 billion to this area, as discussed by Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. Kosiniak-Kamysz emphasized the need for a €100 billion financial reserve for defense in the EU.

President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen proposed appointing a full-time EU Defense Commissioner during the European Economic Congress in Katowice. This aligns with Poland’s stance on the need for increased investment in defense and armaments. Poland's Ministry of Defense plans to sign 150 contracts worth €18 billion for armaments, aiming to ensure 50% of these orders are fulfilled by Polish companies.
