How prepared is Poland to defend itself against Russia?

For three years now Poland has outspent its fellow NATO members with almost 5% of its budget going on defence. Prime Minister Donald Tusk has ambitious plans to double the size of Poland’s armed forces to half a million.

A Polish minister has told TRT's Roundtable its spending on defence will help ensure that "no Russian soldier will enter our territory".

Joining Enda Brady for this discussion: Konrad Golota, Deputy Minister of State Assets for the Republic of Poland; Roch Dunin-Wasowicz, Assistant Professor in Sociology at University College London; Bartlomiej Kot, Programme Director of the Warsaw Security Forum and Hubert Czyzewski, Head of Warsaw Office at the Aspen Institute Central Europe
