Exactly a month ago, he named the exact number of the Polish army — as of October 20, it was 187 thousand people.

November 20 Blaszczak stated that there are now 193 thousand professional soldiers in the Polish army, as well as persons serving in territorial defense or on voluntary basic military service.

The minister also indicated that the Polish authorities have not abandoned plans to increase the army size is up to 300 thousand people. He once again recalled Poland’s ambitions “to realize the project of the most powerful land army in Europe.”
