Europe’s strongest border? NATO’s eastern shield is ready for Russia, Belarus: 'Best-guarded in...'

As war in Ukraine redraws Europe’s security map, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk unveiled what he called an “epoch-making” defence shift. Speaking in Warsaw, Tusk revealed massive EU-backed funding for Poland’s eastern border, turning it into NATO’s most fortified frontline. The SAFE programme will pour unprecedented resources into border walls, drone shields, and defence industries, reshaping both security and economy. With Russia looming and migration pressures rising, Poland now claims to be Europe’s most guarded frontier. Tusk framed the moment as historic, warning that the continent must rethink defence before uncertainty becomes catastrophe.
