Putin's done more good to promote NATO membership than any previous Russian Prime Minister and American President put together.

I wonder if Poland is also getting rid of older weapons and getting newer ones from the US in their place?

Even if it's not, it's better for Poland that Ukraine uses those weapons against Russia troops than having to use them itself against Russian troops.
