Lech Walesa Cancels Obama Meeting – U.S. May Deploy Airforce on Polish Soil

Mr Walesa, a former president still sought out by international visitors, said he had turned down the Obama invitation because it amounted to little more than a photo opportunity. “A meeting does not suit me at this time,” said Mr Walesa to TVN24 television, saying he intended to attend a biblical festival in Italy instead.

Mr Obama’s talks with the Polish government are expected to focus on defence issues, in particular the future of the Bush-era missile defence programme to be co-hosted by Poland until it was cancelled by Mr Obama.

Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski said yesterday that other military announcements could be expected during the trip, including a plan to deploy a unit of the US airforce on Polish soil.
